Socks and Sandals Are Back
Gone are the days where you can mock your best friend or spouse for wearing socks with sandals. In one of the biggest Paris Fashion Week shoe surprises, Valentino and Birkenstock showcased a new collection of trendy bold high fashion cute sandals in monochrome and trademark Valentino red. Each of the sleek models wore socks with his strappy footwear! Don't just wear your socks with summer footwear, kitsch up your stilettos with opaque black socks, mustard yellow textured socks, or a dainty anklet. Whether you wear discount Arizona sandals or high end couture, enjoy socks with your sandals year round.
Spring is Beautiful
Maybe it's the long cold months that got designers pining for floral patterns, but this spring and summer get ready for a stunning display of bold flowers and color! Some of this year's hottest color trends are canary yellow, futuristic cobalt blue, and mind-numbing orange. Mixed and matched these colors say warmth and sun. Contrast with black and white for a bold statement or enjoy summery days with patterned sundress and flashy strappy heels in a rainbow of patterned color.
Dad Sneakers
Ugly oversized dad trainers remain a hot trend for men and women alike. In retro styles and clashing colors, they are the comfy answer to any casual or classy outfit. Of special note are metallic runners and tacky blue quirky sneakers that both are reminiscent of 1980s heavy metal wonders. Silly and stylish.
Kitten Heels
This classic heel style made a comeback this year on the runway. Delicate and prim, they add a polished elegance to any outfit. The versatile style can be worn at work or out on the town. Though characteristically a demure fashion choice, some women have opted to add bold colors for a more provocative look.
Platforms
Platform shoes never seem to truly leave us. They quickly dress up any outfit and add a little bit of unique taste to any drab day. From blocky brown to sleek metallic, there is a platform for any woman. Designers recommend going big and bold with the look.
Combat Boots
In another nod to days gone by, this year's runways are ablaze with rocking combat boots. No longer a trend from the late 20th century, enjoy elegant combat style boots. Donned with a plethora of buckles and studded designs, they are rough and sensual on so many levels. Even the less counterculture of us can appreciate the unabashed self-indulgence of a hot pair of rugged boots.
Contoured Heels
Deviating from the traditional heel, bizarre sculptural heels innovate. From clear blue plastic and jewelry-inspired creations to bold patterned designs, there is a contoured heel for every occasion, every outfit. Be bold. Make a statement like no other. Heads will turn when they see absolute artistry. No matter what stylish trend you set out to wear, enjoy showcasing your own unique style to the world.
