We couldn’t resist our annual visit to a fashion square again just before the New Year Rings Out the Old Shoes and Rings in the New. Were there new shapes and colors to be had? And, are the towering stilettos still holding their own? A trip to Nordstrom gave us some clues.
We soon would find out that anything goes now, particularly if it’s in silver or has a cozy lining.
And, it’s an added plus if it has a touch of sparkly like this UGG Australia “Azalea Charm” boot above. In this year’s edition, we’re seeing bits of flashy glimmer on the side initials. And, don’t they look warm and inviting!
But if it’s glimmer and fancy you are after, feast your eyes on these Michael Kors “Jayden Espadrille Wedgies” with crystal embellishments. They come in silver and gold as you can see.
The bejewelled look gives them an air of elegance that could make any outfit shine.
If you are intending to spend a night on the town, these below might do. This Sam Edelman”Hampton” sandal has that same silvery look but in a snakeskin print with emerald-cut crystals AND a back zip. If you are up for a 4 1/2 inch stiletto, these could fit the bill.
If this silver-grey stylish look is not for you, and you’d like something that would pop and be a reminder that spring is coming, feast your eye on these laced-up, open-toe Daylitte pumps by Steve Madden. They kept motioning us back to take another glance. With their bright palette of pinks and blues AND the zip entry in the back, they had no equal.
If you’re not looking for a fancy night out but just something comfy but with a little pizazz, view these Steve Madden “Resolvve Sneaker Boots” that cost under $100. They’re jazzy and look as if they could be worn to a ballgame, for a long walk, or give a frock a splash of fancy.
We leave you with this “Classic Short Sparkles” UGG that always catches our eye. In fact, we featured it in last year’s survey. We just spied it again, and the good news is that it’s now on sale.
The color is still sensational and the price recommends it. It’s down from $189 to $127. Now that’s the way to start the New Year! Everything old can truly be new again.
Happy 2015! Find a favorite pair of shoes, fancy or comfy, and celebrate!
