Chelsea boots
As
you read on you’ll notice that this season it’s all about boots,
starting with the traditional Chelsea boot. Chelsea boots have been
around for decades but they’re making a particular style comeback this
autumn-winter, predicted to be favorites with both men and women.
Chelsea boots originated in the Victorian era designed as a practical
leather shoe that could be slipped on and off with ease due to its
revolutionary elastic panel. Today it’s still a great choice for those
who have a busy lifestyle and it has become synonymous with
sophistication too. Classic black Chelsea boots
are the obvious choice, but if you want a glamorous twist on the design
looked out for the heeled and wedge platform Chelsea boot options.
Hi-top trainers
Probably
the most relaxed shoe design on-trend at the moment, the hi-top trainer
is (you guessed it) a trainer with a high top fit on the ankle.
Typically lace-up or Velcro fastened. Hi-tops were big in the summer,
working alongside the Sports Luxe
trend, but look set to be a popular purchase for the cooler months, too.
If casual shoes aren’t your thing, hi-tops are also available in more
glitzy finishes suited to special occasions and the party season. Look
out for metallic effect faux leathers and subtle suede designs.
Biker Boots
Another look that seems to resurface almost every winter season, the biker boot
is back in fashion this year, in a big way! You’ll find many takes on
this masculine inspired shoe, from chunky biker ankle boots to knee
length wedge designs with multiple zips and studs. Biker boots may
typically be associated with the tom-boy but can be a wonderful contrast
with a flirty tea dress or elegant midi skirt.
High Leg Boots
Feeling
brave? Embrace the daring and sexy high leg boot. It’s not a design
that’s to everyone’s tastes, particularly if you’re a bit worried of
coming across like Julia Roberts in ‘Pretty Woman’, but you’ll be seeing
plenty of them on the high street and designer shop floors this winter.
Popular high leg finishes are in leather and suede with a zip-up side
opening. Team with jeans or an autumnal midi dress.
Cut-out boots
This
season’s most innovative shoe design has to be the cut-out boot! A
playful twist on the ankle boot, it showcases sections of naked foot or
pretty tights in much the same way cut-out summer dresses revealed a bit
of back or stomach. Unlike the summer’s cut-out trend, the cut-out boot
doesn’t actually have holes in the boot upper, but instead features
straps and buckles that leave sections of your foot on shoe. You could
say it’s half boot, half sandal.
