Hello my lovely readers,
It's a quarter past midnight and I'm thinking about shoes. I know I'm not the only one.
This season it's all about shoes. So many different styles are on trend right now that there's definitely something out there for you. I mean, which girl doesn't have a soft spot for some foot candy? (did that sound wrong?)
There's definitely a back-to-the-basics trend here, with the minimal strappy heels that look oh so complimenting, as long as your calves and ankles are slim. If you're on the chubbier side or really petite, I'd say skip the heels that cuff your leg at the ankle as they will make you look shorter and they will have a swallowing-your-legs effect. And that's not a very flattering look right there.
On the other end, colorful heels with prints and patterns of all sorts are the it-thing right now. They make the big statement in an outfit. They're the showstoppers. Totally on board with these.
I also noticed a tendency for lower, thicker heels which is such a relief for those busy girls who have to go about in town from day to night. I mean, 5 inch stillettos are as sexy as hell, but a nice pair of comfy yet stylish shoes is a lifesaver.
Lace-up heels are also making a big comeback right, usually with cut-out details and they're absolutely gorgeous. Aquazzura is mastering these. Another comeback are slingbacks, which I never thought I'd see again but I guess with fashion you can never say never.
As far as materials go, I spotted a lot of metallic details and lots of snakeskin too. Wood is also often used for the heel which is great for a summer, boho look.
And now check this little collection below I made on Polyvore featuring the most gorgeous shoes in stores right now. Click on the arrows at the sides to scroll through.

Beautiful selection, I am a shoe addicted and cannot choose only one kind ! I prefer heels of course, and when I have to hurry up and have a busy day I'll go with sneakers, I like my heels high most of the times ;)

ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, Ellie! Hopefully, we'll stay in touch!
Deletewe've been obsessed with any shoes that have ankle straps, as swell as pointed toe shoes!! We're also trying to experiment with different prints and colours, it's always a nice way to add a pop to any outfit!

I love heels with ankle straps, if you wear them well, they make your legs look amazing! Thanks so much for leaving a comment! x
DeleteI have a shoe problem... A serious addiction. I just love them! Craving a pair of Louboutin pigalle's in nude or a pair of the super bright Jimmy Choo's. I just bought a really cute pair of Dolce Vita heeled gladiator sandals. I'll be wearing them on my blog tomorrow! Thanks so much for stopping by Palm and Peachtree :)
