This Summer has seen an interesting fusion of new, old, and completely different. I think many of you will agree, some of the sensibility of shoe design has gone out of the window (see our post tomorrow on "Trends We Loathe"), but for the most part, this Summer's collections provided a breath of fresh air to a few tried and true designs.
Here are a few of the new trends we liked over the past few months:
- Cage Heels: Our favorite trend from this Summer. We love the way these look with a pair of tights or scoop.
- Super High Heels: Some may disagree with us on this trend, but we think the Super-high trend was dead-on. What a better way to show-off your summer tan and the hours spent in the gym!
- Gladiator Sandals: Probably one of the trends that was close to being over-done...seems like everyone was "modding" existing sandals with straps and ties to achieve the look. With that said, the range of options well suited the bargain shopper to the distinctive diva's with deep pockets.
- Pointy Toe Heels: Yes, this trend made the list...just as we were about to add it to the "loathe" list, we remembered how extremely versatile this style is (we still have a pair of Prada pumps for back in the day). Over the years, it seems like the pointy-toe remains just on the fringe of high-fashion acceptability.
