6 Spring Shoe Trends To Crave For 2016

6 Spring Shoe Trends For 2016


From the runways to street style, these spring shoe trends have been spotted on the shelves of many retailers and in pages of some of the hottest fashion magazines. Though these styles may not be new, a lot of designers have revamped an old favorite for a more updated and innovative look.

Mules

Mules have been seen up and down the runways as one of this season’s hottest trends. Once a 90s favorite among many, they’ve finally made it back on the scene. I’ve seen my fair share of ugly ones, but I’ve also come across a few that I would actually consider wearing. I’m not a huge fan of mules because I don’t like the idea of wearing heels with an open back. Weird I know.

Mules FSD

1. Vince Camuto Olivia Open Toe Mule, 2. French Connection Pandra Wedge, 3. Kenneth Cole New York ‘Saul’ Peep Toe Mule, 4. Kenneth Cole Wendy Pointed-Toe Mule Pumps.


Platforms

Platforms are a 70s inspired edgy statement shoe that can spice up your look.   

Platforms FSD

1. Sacai Black Double Strap Platform Sandals, 2. Rochas Crystal Embellished Platform Sandals, 3.Rebecca Minkoff Cady Lace-Up Platform Wedge Sandal, 4. Platform Sandals


Wedges

Wedges in my eyes are a spring/summer staple. If you don’t own a pair, what are you waiting for? Every year I find a wedge shoe that is a must-have. Not only are they comfortable, but they can also actually be worn for long periods of time without the pain.

1.Chloé Suede and Leather Wedge Espadrilles, 2. Sole Society Sena Espadrille Wedge, 3. Ivanka Trump Hindre Women's Wedge Shoes, 4. Aquazzura Belgravia Suede Wedge Espadrilles

Lace-Up Sandals

Back for another season, lace-up sandals are a must-have. If you’re looking for an everyday casual shoe to wear this season, the lace-up sandal is the perfect statement shoe. It’s a classic ballet style with a twist.

Lace Up FSD

1. French Connection Kamilla Suede Lace-Up Ballet Flats, 2. Nine West Signmeup Lace-Up Flats, 3. Schutz Neida Lace-Up Flats, 4. Aquazzura Suede Christy Flats


Block Heels

Block heels are another spring must-have trend. Unlike stilettos, these chunky heels not only provide comfort, but they also deliver a bold statement.

Block Heels FSD

1. Strategia leather sandals, 2. Lipsy strappy sandals, 3. River Island suede shoes, 4. Aquazzura suede shoes


Oxfords

Oxfords are a classic shoe that has been around since forever. These babies have been revamped for a more updated bold look. Oxfords can give any outfit a more polished look.

Oxfords FSD

1. Moschino Black Oxford, 2. Rebecca Minkoff Pandora Wedge Oxford, 3. Chiko Amabelle Fringe Two Tone Oxfords, 4. Opening Ceremony Platform Shoes

What are some of your favorite spring/summer shoes?

    I am in love with the blue mules and a couple of the oxfords. I’m not ready to bring platforms back into my style but I do love a good wedge.

    I’m so on the wedge and playform shoe trend. They’re comfy and give me extra height!

    Wedges 2 and 4 were cute. I would’t be wearing any of the other shoes.

I know this is going to be an unpopular opinion… 

I wore my Apple Watch with every outfit for years. Then one day I realized not every outfit needs it.

Sometimes the best accessory is knowing when to leave one off.

Do you wear your Apple Watch with everything, or do you switch it up depending on the outfit?

Adulting is exhausting. Nights like this are necessary.

A reminder that I’m allowed to enjoy my life, too.

Work can have me tomorrow. Tonight belongs to me.

Sometimes the best thing you can do for yourself is leave the house. #fashionstyledetroit

When I have no idea what to wear, I stick to a formula that never fails: a graphic tee, a maxi skirt, and statement shoes. Simple, effortless, and it always looks put together. #fashionstyledetroit #ootd #styletip

Unpopular fashion opinion: It’s better to be overdressed than underdressed.

I’d rather walk into a room feeling confident than spend the whole time wishing I’d put in a little more effort.

Getting dressed isn’t about impressing other people, it’s about how you feel when you show up.

Agree or disagree? Which would you rather be: overdressed or underdressed? 👇🏾

Unpopular fashion opinion: Not every fashion trend looks good on everybody.

I’ve learned that chasing every trend doesn’t build great style knowing what works for your body, lifestyle, and personal style does.

The best outfits aren’t always the trendiest. They’re the ones that make you feel confident.

Agree or disagree? What’s one fashion trend you just couldn’t get behind?

I told myself I wasn’t buying another pair of sunglasses.

Then I tried them on.

At what point does it become a collection and not a shopping problem?

Unpopular fashion opinion: Looking expensive has nothing to do with how much you spent.

Some of the best outfits I’ve ever worn weren’t the most expensive…they just fit well, felt good, and were styled with intention.

A designer label won’t fix bad styling, but confidence can elevate almost anything.

Agree or disagree? 

What’s your unpopular fashion opinion?

Original price: $170

My price: $59.97

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but that’s not spending money… that’s being financially responsible. 

Girl math or smart shopping? Be honest. 😂

What up doe? Fashion besties, can we talk about how hard it is to meet new people as an adult?

Between work, responsibilities, and everything else life throws our way, making new friends isn’t always easy. That’s why I love events like this. There’s something so refreshing about stepping outside your comfort zone, meeting new people, and making real life connections.

I came for the content, the donuts, and the good vibes…but I left with some great conversations and new connections.

Noowwwww…let’s talk about the food!! The donuts were good, and I especially loved the Strawberry Shortcake Layered Custard. But the real star of my evening? The Crispy Ramen Original Rice Hotdog lightly sprinkled with sugar. I’m officially hooked and already planning my next visit.

A big thank you to @DetroitFinds313 and @mochinut_berkely for hosting such a fun and welcoming event. 

Now tell me, fashion besties, do you find it easy or hard to make new friends as an adult?
