WOVEN FOOTWEAR

A couple of months ago I posted about the spring/summer footwear trends to look out for on the high st and one of the key fabric options for fringe detailed shoes, featured on the catwalk was woven leather. Burberry used the style heavily in their S/S12 catwalk show.

This look has now become a trend of it's own with numerous retailers adopting the 1970's inspired style and working it onto loafers, espadrilles, sandals and formal footwear options.

To get the1970s inspired look go for a woven shoe in tan. This colour will go with the current Aztec trend and the global traveller look.

BLACK LACE-UP SHOES

Tomorrow we begin the official (Advent Calender) countdown to Christmas! For a lot of you, this will mean one thing... CHRISTMAS PARTY! 

Yes, it's that time of year where you talk to people you have avoided all year, get ridiculously drunk, make a fool of yourself and hope that nobody remembers you throwing up on yourself! Fun times!

Obviously before you get to that point, you have to consider your outfit. Whether your Christmas party is a black tie event, a meal after work or a party with your friends and family, black lace-up shoes are essential. They will smarten up jeans and a shirt and can make or break your tuxedo. 

There are loads to choose from on the high st all year round so for my post I have tried to find a selection of prices and fabrics for you to consider.
