As summer disappears, so does the need to walk around bare foot or in skimpy, barely there sandals, exposing your feet to as much fresh air as possible. Winter brings with it socks, slippers and perpetual ice blocks at the ends of your legs. Your pins will still look stylish because the winter will bring int the new fashions when it comes to shoes we wear.
It seems that the boots, like biker boots in vogue and equestrian boots, will be next to ballerina flats and animal prints for this winter. Ballerina flats typically have round toes and come in a range on materials and colours. This winter animal prints, metallics – especially gold, and velvets are the big sellers. Something different then the typical flat shoes could be a low or even high, vamp heel with ankle ties.
The shiny patent look is in fashion, so are the red color and Mary Jane’s. The name Mary Jane is an American term for a strap shoe or sandal that has low heels, broad, rounded and closed toes and a buckle strap across the instep and/or around the ankle. Before they were made only of black patent leather, but now it’s a bit different. These days they come in all colours and all materials including suede and canvas. The shoes that were mainly known as little girls shoes are Mary Jane’s – they were only sometimes reffered to as a shoes for little boys. Now they are also shoes for grown women, although in the case of women they are more informal than they are for children.
The Mary Jane’s of today have higher heels and platform soles, which makes them a bit different. Punk rockers and Goths adopted the shoes in particular, although some others would vamp up the “Lolita” look and wear them with high knit socks and a very short paid, pleated schoolgirl skirt.
The peep-toe shoe is one more trend that will flourish this winter. I know you think that your feet would surely freeze if you wear one of these, but I asure you that this is not really crazy and that you will be warm as you would be in a regular pumps you wear.
As you can see, there are a lot of options for you when it comes to winter shoes. Choose what fits your style best and you will be ready for the cold winter days.
