HOW TO BREAK OUT OF YOUR SHOE-BOX RUT AND HAVE FUN IN THE LATEST SUMMER
SHOE STYLES.
According to the nation's first shoe census conducted by Greenfield
online, many women claim to be embracing new shoe trends in color,
variety and style. But when it comes to what's in their closet, the
majority of women indicated they're steeped with basics and lots of
black, leaving many not knowing how to tip-toe into the new summer
trends and break out of their style shoebox. All of these shoes are
available at Shoemall.com
Try a Wedge...
Definitely the most popular summer shoe style, the wedge is a
retro style that's hot this summer thanks to new textures and fabrics
including Cork, Wood, Raffia and Embroidery. Wedges are great for
almost any occasion, and some may even work for office environments.
Some favorites include:
1. A Wood wedge with ankle and t-strap in bold orange by E by Easy
Spirit, is the perfect example of function meeting fashion. This
particular shoe has a built-in cushion that gives less stress to the
feet, but the whimsy of the style and color screams fashionista.
|
 |
2. The Raffia wedge in white eyelet by Steve Madden, hits the feminine
girly trend that many women like to embrace. |
 |
3. The Platform wedge by Bongo, is where two shoe styles meet. Notice
the exaggerated platform across the entire shoe. This shoe style is
definitely for that person who's more playful in her shoe personality.
This shoe also hits on the embroidery trend, which is especially hot in
florals. |
 |
4. If some wedges are too high for you, try a modified wedge, like this retro polka dot style by Poetic Licence. |
 |
You may also love a Peep Toe or Platform...
Put your pumps on hold, peep toes and platforms
are the newest shoe styles perfect for the office, dinners or
cocktails. We love:
 |
1. A "wrapped" platform is the newest style, and has a nautical
influence in red. This shoe is by Charles by Charles David. |
 |
2. Floral and nature prints are a very popular trend. This shoe by
Naughty Monkey, looks sweet and sexy in a peep toe d'orsay style with
corset back. |
 |
3. Ideal for the office, an update to the pump is this peep toe style with chunky heel (notice the chunky heel) by Bongo.The chocolate patent trim is a sophisticated styling detail that will work well with a suit. |
Or Try Flats and Flip Flops...
A natural summer shoe choice, perfect for poolside, bbq's, fun with friends. There are lots of details that makes
these classic shoes new.
1. Metallics continue to be an essential style choice. This peep toe criss cross weave style by Nicole, is gorgeous in gold/bronze and silver.
|
 |
2. Patent leather is so hot right now, and while once considered not so classy, a rich colored patent when done in a flat is super stylish and looks very fresh. This one by Steve Madden. |
 |
3. Bold prints and patterns are for the more daring, but look fun and fresh in a green stripe. This shoe by Jessica Simpson. |
 |
4. In a flip flop, the "Scarf" sandal by Steve Madden is a really elegant alternative to a basic thong. |
 |
5. Lots of people are "going green" so this ergonomic quilted cushion flip flop by Etnies is a great basic that still has a fashion edge.
