5 TRENDS TO STEP UP YOUR SHOE GAME


New season, new shoes! Take your pick from thong heels to ankle-tie sandals or the latest trend, chunky flatforms




FRESH FLATFORM
The perfect combination of platforms and slides, flatforms add height without being uncomfortable. You can count on these to uplift and add edge to any outfit.

DO: Pair with summer dresses for a cool contrast.
DON’T: Pair with ultra-skinny pants, you might look out of proportion.



ALL TIED UP
This summer favourite elevates even the simplest outfit. Glam up a date night look with a bold pair or add a funky touch to your daytime jeans and T-shirt look with low heels or flats.

DO: Keep all the ties below the calf muscle, wrap around your legs and make a secure knot.
DON'T: Don’t try to extend ties until there is no string left – they will slip down easily or ‘cut off’ your legs, making you look shorter.

Tip: Tie over trousers for an on-trend effect



RETURN OF THE MARY-JANE
This once demure classic is making a hip comeback in a variety of colours and shapes. Style icons from Sarah Jessica Parker to Blair Waldorf are sporting them (including your mom!).

DO: Keep your look sleek and sophisticated.
DON’T: Choose a style that doesn’t flatter your wider feet, a diagonal strap will work well.



THONG HEELS
Yes, you heard right! They’re back and they’re going to be your summer staple. Comfortable, chic and easy to wear, pair them with a classic jeans-and-T-shirt-combo or take it up a notch and style them with a leather midi skirt and top.

DO: Opt for a pair that blends in with your skin to elongate your legs.
DON’T: Buy them too small, there is nothing more unflattering than your toes hanging over or creeping out.



SPORT THE TREND
Perfect for a casual cool vibe, wear these sporty sandals with your favourite maxi dress for a feminine touch, or pair with a shorts suit.

DO: Keep your toes and feet well groomed.
DON’T: Pair with long flared jeans and baggy t-shirts – you’ll just look frumpy.
