boot camp

Hello lovers,

I hope you enjoyed summer so far and I really hope you made it ok through the heats our little planet has been treating us to.

As for the lovely shoes, there are pleanty of things to catch up on, since we have to hurry stocking up for autumn. So, lets begin!

You should have noticed by now that one of this season's trends is chunky, manly, army inspired shoes. All major designers and brands have contributed to this trend, creating some very massive and heavy shoes. However, it is amazing how suited they are even on the gentle feet and ankle of a woman/girl - nothing can compare to the beautiful contrast of a heavy shoe against the delicacy of a woman.
These shoes also represent a very strong statement a girl can make through fashion. That is why one shy girl can never wear them.
But they are the perfect choice if you feel bored of the chic and simple shoes, of the pastels, nudes and flowers summer's been treating us to. Just slip inside some of the next season's heavy shoes and feel empowered.
As usual, I have chosen my favourite ones, but feel free to send me others, should you have your own favourites.
