Women's Issues
Fashion is constantly changing, and we're here to keep you on top of the latest trends to make sure you've got the right women's shoes for keeping you on the move. From heels to wedges, boots to ballet flats, we've got the biggest trends and latest styles in women's shoes just for you.
Last year, pointed toe heels were the 'it' choice in women's shoes (as supported by pretty much every major designer from Bandolino to Steve Madden, Jimmy Choo to Nine West.) But, this is a new year, and the ultra pointed toe has evolved into a more rounded, but just as sexy version. Look to leaders, Sam Edelman and Joan & David for new, sexy round-toed women's shoes. Not only is the rounded toe back, but it's back with a twist: think of a super gradual, sloped heel, or oblong curve at the tip of the toes.
This curved, rather than pointed has made its way to the high heeled boot section of women's shoes, as well. From Harley to Matisse, Sofft and Anne Michelle the round-toe is back, and back in style. Not only does this ease the pressure on your feet, we promise this newly evolved version of the previously pointed toe won't fall flat on the street.
Speaking of curvy shoes, ballet flats have been gaining momentum in women's shoes for the past couple of seasons, and are now definitely on a roll. Tory Burch, the queen bee of ballet flats has taken the scene by storm. Keeping to the tried-and-true form of this popular women's shoe, Sam Edelman, Xhileration, and Bloch London are all popular brands with the same shape. Important to note, though: a new, slanted, but not pointed or rounded toe has emerged as a combination of the two extremes. Look to Hush Puppies, Ralph Lauren, and Rangoni for the newest take on this versatile women's shoe.
Enough about heels and toes--let's talk about fabric and styling! This season is about colors, prints, and fun! From Juicy Couture to Jessica Simpson, Miss Me to Reed Evans, character is back in women's shoes! Particularly popular are tie-dyed styles and color fading/blending.
Looking for basic Do's and Don'ts in Women's Shoes This Season?
Do: Go for a more gradual or rounded toe: comfortable and chic. What's better?
Don't: Pick a super pointed women's shoe just because you think they're 'in'--word is: they're fading out.
Do: Go for color and pizzazz--spice up those flats or heels with a fun floral print.
Don't: Go for neutral just because it's classic--now is the time for taking chances! Or, if you need a more neutral color, spice it up with fun detailing or a funky heel.
Do: Go for a flat, chic shoe--heels are always in, but flats are on the spot right now, so take advantage!
Don't: Choose a flat without any extra oomph--without any heel, a boring flat is a poor excuse for a women's shoe. Don't fall into a monotone look that falls flat.
With so many choices in women's shoes, you really can't go wrong if you choose a pair you love. So, do your research, take your pick, and strut with pride in the latest trends in women's shoes.
