Ready for Spring Shoes?

It’s that time of the year again and I can’t decide whether to buy boots or spring sandals. There have been some great boot sales lately, whether you are looking for riding boots, ankle boots or rainboots you can get great deals on boots and women’s shoe sale as stores look to clear out inventory in anticipation of Spring arrivals. But after months of seeing black, gray and brown boots in the shops I am finding myself pining for spring sandals in fun pastel colors, metallics and floral prints. Again this 2012 spring season we will be seeing sky high heights and a multitude of patterns, prints and graphics. The wedge, always a favorite is back again this Spring with many different textures including cork, wood, one of my personal favorites the espadrille. But for those of you who are longing for the comfort of flatter days I am happy to say there will be a lot of flat options this Spring too. Many pretty taupes, pinks and nude tones to choose from with feminine cutouts and detailing.  One of my favorite trends which is which is picking up steam this Spring is pattern on pattern shoes. By having a mix of patterns on the straps and wedge of the shoe your footwear becomes a statement piece with a quirky, bohemian feel. So instead of matching your shoe to your outfit you end up creating your outfit around the shoe. Don’t go overboard with the patterns and color though. A simple white cotton dress or cropped skinny jeans will do the trick.

Same here! Sooo excited for the spring season! Though I am not into using sandals that made out of cork (as the sole part of that shoes are really worn out when you use it very often) but I am a fan of flat one. This is the most comfortable for me no matter what they say! Love it!
