These Boots Are Made for Walkin'

For some people, shoe shopping is a passion. Not for me, my thing is definitely nail polish! But a girl's gotta wear shoes, right?..
Shoes for this season are diverse, interesting, and wild. As colors go, this winter shoe comes in black, white, camel, beige, burgundy, dark blue, chocolate, deep violet, khaki and red.. Which makes sense, since its winter and all..
The diversity of this season's shoe-do's are sure to guarantee that every girl finds her thing, and is comfortable wearing it too!

Sock-in-shoe
Some people tend to believe that Rihanna started this trend, I just think it was triggered by sock makers *sigh
The trend was seen on the runways of D&G, Marc and Dior. It's a very bold move, and that's why its a fashion statement! But if it's too much for you, you can safely go for tights instead. You'll look sexier yet still remain in the fashion loop.






Stilettos
Now this is a heel I LOVE. Thin heels are S-E-X-Y. And well let's face it, I'm short, so they work wonders on elongating my legs and fixing my posture. Mind you, after a few hours I start loathing the minute I wore them, but, I'd go and do it all over again on the next occasion! And let's be honest now, its a heel that will never get old. They were featured in this season's collections of Lanvin, Donna Karan and Armani.




Platforms and Wedges
The picture above features a wedge heel, and this is another trend that's been growing from fun wedge summer sandals into bulky, bold winter shoes and boots. Personally, I don't go for the wedge heel. I'm petite, so these pieces make my feet disproportionately big in comparison to the rest of my body, and I just look odd.
But it's a powerful trend, I gotta give it that! And so did Marc Jacobs - repeatedly!

Suede

It goes without saying, being winter and all.. But suede is BIG this season. Of course, I would tell you NOT to buy real animal skin and go for the faux. But either ways, it's the look we're after. This matte, warm texture is all over the runways of Michael Kors, Isabel Marant and Givenchy.

Reptile Skin Prints
I won't repeat this; I'm all for animal "imitation" skins. Not the real thing.
But the look of reptile skins, with their wild, untamed nature is just sexy. And designers incorporated this in their productions for the season, urging every woman to bring out the sexy wild animal within.
This trend also extends into dress prints, scarves and even nail polish!! (Yes.)

Just a thought.....



These were some of the most prominent shoe trends of the season. Today, I'm walking in a pair of camel, faux-leather knee-length boots.. What are YOU walking in?
Gotta go now. Over & out.
