Melding two of the hottest color trends for summer
I’ll call this shoe “Tory Burch-esque,” due to it’s super similarities to every resort girl’s favorite designer du jour.
For a twist, I thought it would be fun to meld the mega trend of metallics that have been so fun all summer with a trend we see on fall’s horizons – a love of all things bright blue. Can these two trends coexist in harmony?
I think they’re perfectly suited for one another – a treat for your feet as the dog days of summer transition into the crisp air of fall!
Homage to Christian Louboutin’s famous bright red bottom
Black patent leather is here to stay…at least for another season or two. I love the peep toe; it will look great on tanned legs in early fall and even better paired with textured tights this winter!
I chose red for the heel color a la Christian Louboutin. Hey, not everyone can afford $700 shoes, but it doesn’t mean a girl can’t appreciate luxury – especially when she can create it herself at these prices!
Interiors high style underfoot
The wedge is a summer classic – perfect for a dressy picnic (as anyone who has worn heels on grass can tell you) or kicking off a beach vacation. You get the idea.
For this design I took my color cues straight from a home decorating tip I just read. It referred to the color trend of mixing bright neon colors with muddy 1970′s inspired colors for a funky, unexpected look. I don’t know, they may be fun to wear. Otherwise, I suppose I could mount them above my fireplace and hope that some hip magazine calls to do a photo spread.
So, what inspired designs did you create?
Designing my own shoe was both fun and ridiculous, seeing how I spent over an hour fooling around on Steve Madden's site. This company certainly knows how to get a woman's attention - shoes, color, and a little creativity!
