June 16, 2021Make way for the new Cruise Rider Lace – this special shoe was designed for women who are ready to make moves. Immediately inspired to integrate these into our summer wardrobe, we put together a street-ready ensemble full of retro pieces which encompass the free flowing movements introduced by the shoes.
The Shoes
With a stacked outsole and slightly elevated midsole, the Cruise Rider Lace brings classic comfort into a new form. A layered mixture of materials and lively color blocking results in a refreshing shoe streamlined for style. An upper design features a stripped-down appearance with a double lacing system and a toggle at the heel. The traditional formstrip has been minimized, so elements of mesh and colourful leather and suede overlays shine through for a recognizable contemporary-cool design.
The Outfit
Things are heating up and summer is nearly in full swing. This season is all about breezy, minimal pieces layered in such a way as to emphasize interest and comfort. To accompany the feminine sportstyle vibes of the Cruise Rider Lace try a retro/grunge pairing, like this frayed-edge denim skirt. The light wash counterbalances the chunky shoes, and the creative asymmetrical cut is eye-catching, making the item a little bit more unique than your average denim skirt.
Dress down the skirt with a simple, slightly baggy, boyfriend tee. This retro PUMA T-shirt with colourblocked sleeves is the perfect low-key top to pair with the large-and-in-charge skirt.
The Accessories
Imbue your look with an effortless class by coordinating textures throughout. This mini leather and suede shoulder bag matches materials and shades in the Cruise Riders, while the adjustable strap length allows you to customize how much dangle there is to show off. Couple the subtle gold-tone buckles of the purse with a quirky pair of asymmetrical statement earrings, augmenting the slightly lopsided feeling established by the skirt. A celestial black and gold-tone pendant necklace complements the earrings and purse, and subtly levels up the more relaxed outfit.
As the outfit is rather simple, you get to have a little leeway with your accessories. Feel free to layer in another chic accent like this black wraparound belt. Made of slim strips of leather that dangle along your hips and knot together in a polished gold center, it is the perfect detail to play with the lace-up trend we’re seeing everywhere this season. Finally, an intense pink lip is the finishing touch that makes the whole look irresistible. Twinning with the splashes of pink in the sneakers, a bold lip juxtaposes the relaxed sportstyle vibes of the rest of the look in an edgy and playful way.
