The Fashion Week Shoes

I have two big plastic boxes of shoes in my house and I don’t think I’m alone in my love of footwear. So why does no one ever talk about the shoes on the runways at Fashion Week? While outstanding, jaw dropping collections are definitely worthy of praise, we feel that the shoes should get their day too!

So may I present the Spring/Summer shoes I covet the most:

Michael Kor’s Africa inspired collection was rounded off with these boots which look practical, comfy and stylish. I never thought I’d see the day where I could say that about runway shoes!

The delicate two tone heels at Mary Katrantzou shouldn’t be overlooked. The glossy shine, colour blending and thin straps make them perfect for this season, and I could happily run away in them.

Sheer plastic heels? Am I dreaming? Finish of the look with a see through Burberry mac to wash away any spring showers.

Theres nothing about these shoes I don’t love. The big flowers, the heels that looked covered in vines and the shiny metal plating makes them quirky and fun. I may have to become the Missoni family’s best friend pronto.
