While perusing the new Spring footwear collections, one in particular has really caught our attention for its innovative designs that are both beautiful and wearable, and a truly awesome color palette. It belongs to Chloé, a label We have liked over the years, especially for their purses, but one that I also don’t ever remember as blowing me away. This season’s collection has managed to do so and we have literally been studying the shoes for the past few days. It brings a chic mix of shoes from sophisticated platform sandals that any woman who embraces sky-high heels could wear confidently, to contemporary sandals featuring extra-wide bands in hot pinks and turquoise blues with a hint of the avant-garde.
One of the things Chloé has achieved in this new assortment of shoes is the embodiment of a number of trends for Spring in just a few styles. The contemporary, architectural shapes of the criss-cross sandals boast patent leathers in bright, tropical colors. Sculpted wooden heels on platform wedge sandals lend an organic and slightly tribal feel while a strip of Lucite down the back is both unusual and ultramodern. Wedges with deep V cutouts create the season’s favorite heel shapes.
Admittedly Chloé price tags are high…ok really high, so if you’re on a budget--you’ll have to admire them from afar! Still, it’s worth taking some cues from the collection for when you start your Spring shoe shopping. If you can find a style that has so expertly and effortlessly blended the topmost trends, snap it up immediately.
