ankle boots

Shoe trends this spring don't look very pretty. I mean ‘pretty' is not the word to describe these edgy, bold looks the footwear has been given. Of course, you still get to wear last season's patent, metallics, exotic leather, platforms, cone heels and ballerina flats.

Along with those, spring 2008 trends have a lot to offer: the peep-toe bootie or the oxford-sandal is the new must have. The wedge shoe is back and is higher than ever. Color-block and fabric printed shoes match the season's palette and for warrior looks what's more suited than a pair of gladiator boots?

Enjoy!

Played a little with Polyvore, again...

Bright blue...golden yellow...short hem...ruffles...oxfords. Only a strong, high self-esteem woman could wear such a clash outfit and that led me to a Diva look - 80s style.

October is the perfect time for wearing a biker jacket, a very short and fit one, and suede ankle boots. It’s still pretty sunny outside and it doesn’t rain that much. Skinny or straight jeans go perfect with this outfit and I love this long grey sweater with a cowl-neck. I’m in a search for one alike. Grey and brown, these are my favorite hues for this fall.

These high heels, plaid ankle boots are available on eBay for only $17.99 from business seller YourShoetique (100% positive feedback). You can wear them with almost everything, skinny or wide leg jeans, with other prints or with a basic black outfit and you’ll catch everyone’s attention.

A grey-on-grey outfit is the new take on all-black look. So look for a jersey or a soft knit top and for a pair of skinny dark grey jeans. Team up with a cropped silvery white jacket or with a classic trench, a “gun metal” tote and you’re ready to face out yet another rainy autumn day.
