C.O.C.A Style Trend: The Hidden Wedge ...



80%20 - The Molly Open-Toe Hidden Wedge, $116

80%20 - The Georgie Handkerchief The Hidden Wedge, $89
80%20 - The Georgie Handkerchief Tie Hidden Wedge, $169

My first encounter with "The Hidden Wedge" was a bit of a side ways head movement, but I tried it on and I must say 'it has won me over' - definitely one of those 'Mona Lisa' moments, lol. But, if you have style and the right pedicure, lol, it's possible to make even the most bizarre heel game score major points ...

80%20's approach is definitely a fresher one and their shoe collections are always 'Anti-Fashion' especially if you're pursuing something unique [which is something I'd prefer anyways, you'll never have to worry about the chick next to you jockin' ya fresh].

Wanna try the hidden wedge? Check them out on Karmaloop ...

Beware ... She's a beast with the shoe game


Trends will fade, Style is timeless and when you're a flygirl you strive to be classic ...

Speaking of flygirls, meet C.O.C.A Style mami Meshon Chase, 28, style socialite from Chicago (International Academy of Design & Technology alum/Fashion Merchandise) with an appetite for all things fashion from hair to shoes.

You've never met a flygirl quite like her, if she's not tippin' on the dance floors of her hometown's trendiest clubs, she's always on the list of flagship store/boutique openings or seated upfront at a fashion show you forgot to RSVP to.

Needless to say, on any given day/night she's always styled to the tee with apparel from designer labels to vintage nooks ... Check her out below and see how she rocks one of Spring/Summer '09 hottest shoe trends - The strappy sandal, what do you think?

You've Got To Be Seen Green ...

According to Foot Wear Plus Magazine, hues of green will be the color story for women's footwear. IDK about you, but sometimes I feel like I'm trapped in a reality fashion series of The Wiz ... Fall 08 it was purple, maybe it'll be mustard or ruby red in 2010, sigh.
