TRENDS FOR HER
As the world starts to pick up, so does the style. We are once again embracing having a bit of fun with what we are wearing and how we are wearing it – and that extends to what we’re wearing on our feet. Whether you’re someone who believes shoes are the start of the outfit, or the ones that believe they are responsibly for bringing it all together, or maybe you find yourself somewhere in between, regardless – these are the shoe trends to know in 2022 for her.
TEXTURES
Something you may not consider when it comes to shoes, but now that we’re talking it over you’ll notice immediately – texture. We absolutely love the added interest a bit of texture gives your favorite pair of heels or sandals. Also offering a bit more protection against the wear and tear that is natural to all well-loved pairs.
Our can’t miss call outs: woven details, snakeskin details and of course a bit of added glitz.
COLOR
As with the rest of our closet, our shoes are wanting to break out of our neutral color safe haven we built across the winter months. Whether going for a specific Pantone swatch or running full force to all things bright – we are seeing that extra pop of color at the hem take off in a major way.
SILHOUETTE
Shoes worthy of a 360 degree view so not a detail goes missed. The shapes of summer footwear are definitely to take note of – from show stopping heels to platform inspired sandals and wedges that introduce just a bit of volume.
Embrace the slip-on trend, or playing with all of straps from ankle straps, these options will have anyone stopping and asking, ‘where did you get those shoes?!’.
Quite honestly, the bolder the better – which is why eye-catching silhouettes are topping our trends to watch.
LEATHER + WESTERN-INSPIRED
The shoes that somehow get better with wear. That introduce a bit of function to the fashion.
Because, honestly, you don’t need to be on the ranch to have a deep appreciation for a boot that priorities an all-day wear with a few extra details that make them stand out on their own.
And you don’t need to be completely trend forward to develop a slight obsession with a sandal that takes a bit of inspiration from the best of street fashion.
There are a lot of things to be said about leather styles, but we will sum it up with – these are not only a need to know, but a need to wear.
SLIDES
