Footwear Tips
Nothing cheers up a woman like new footwear. With new pair of shoes old outfits are transformed, new outfits seem to gel together better, and maybe even legs appear slimmer! Suddenly that new footwear is a must-have buy. In autumn 2009, women’s shoe fashion has put its best foot forward with new ankle boots, thigh boots, biker boots, flat brogues and alarmingly high court shoes. At some catwalk shows there were even heelless shoes, a modern miracle of engineering.
This year update your look with the latest footwear, and that means either over-the-knee boots or fierce strappy ankle boots. Whilst killer heels are great for occasions where it’s car to club, the new ankle boots are the most realistic option for the majority of us, and heels on ankle boots range from sturdy and low, to high and fierce.
We’ve seen biker looks for sometime, but this year the latest trend is over-the-knee boots.
These ladies boots from Faith Footwear, and shown above right, hit several micro trends – they are over-the-knee, and have fashionable stud and tassel trims. The flat sole ensures they are suitable for everywoman.
