Shoe fashion for Fall
How to get your shoe collection ready for fall?
Fall is a
great time to
redo your wardrobe and apart from other clothing items
that you need to buy, here are some excellent tips from
Shoebuy on what your shoe closet should have:
Platform Shoes
They
have a raised "platform" under the ball or front of the
foot. Platforms are often accentuated with other features,
such as chunky heels, wedge heels or stiletto heels for a
streamlined
boost in height. Celebrities embracing the platforms
trend include
Christina Aguilera,
Jessica
Simpson, and
Carmen Electra, all of whom choose round-toed platform
styles for a retro look. Look for platforms that feature
patent leather or suede. |

Women’s Flats
Combine
both comfort and style to create a versatile Fall shoe.
Ballerina Flats and Square-Toe Flats are especially
popular during this season, as they perfectly complement
the fashion trends like skinny jeans, gauchos, long
shorts, skirts and leggings. While Mischa Barton has long
been the "face" of Flats, other stars like
Cameron Diaz,
Keira Knightly and Kate Bosworth have embraced Flats
as their everyday shoes of choice. Look for Flats in
metallic colors or adorned with jewels to add a touch of
sass to any outfit. Skechers, Keds, Tommy Hilfiger, Dr.
Scholl’s and Born all provide a great selection of Flats.
Mary Jane
Must-have
style for fall. Mary Janes have evolved from traditional "school
girl" shoes to become one of the most versatile styles
for fall. Now available in many different styles, colors
and materials, Mary Janes can be sporty (like those
featured by Skechers or Merrell) or fabulously
feminine. The latter is especially popular in Fall, as
evidenced by the emergence of Mary Jane Pumps with rounded
toes spotted on Naomi Watts and
Hillary Duff. These styles combine innate playfulness
with ‘40s sophistication. Mary Janes look great with
cropped pants and Pumps work well with more formal
business attire. Check out the Mary Janes by Rockport,
Sofft, Hush Puppies, Aerosoles and Merrell. |

Women’s Boots
Boots
continue to be one of the most diverse footwear
trends year after year - Ankle Boots, Wedge Heel
Boots (a fall update to popular Summer Wedge
Heels), and of course Flat Boots. There’s a lot to
chose from, so have some fun with
boots! Ankle Boots can be dressed up with a
skirt and
opaque tights or leggings, like Sienna Miller,
or dressed down with stovepipe
jeans for that perfect ‘80s look. Both Wedge
Heel Boots and Flat
Boots look great when they have a higher shaft
that lace up or have buckle embellishments. |
