This year is all about being bold and daring with your fashion choices, so why not make this the year to truly express yourself through your choice of footwear?
On the SS19 runways we saw several styles that ranged in colour, texture, and fabric. Today we’re breaking it all down so you can strut the hottest trends next time you hit the town. After all, spring is just around the corner!
Make it Mesh
Price Point: CAD $49.50
Mules have been making a comeback for a while now and what better way to rock a mule than with a bit of mesh? You’ll see a lot of mesh booties this year—dress them up with a midi skirt, or down with a pair of blue jeans.
Animal Print
Price Point: CAD $190
We love these snake print mules because they are everything that we need in an everyday bootie: they’re low enough to wear all the time, they’re open in the back and won’t restrict your feet, and they’re stylish enough to pair with any outfit.
Price Point: CAD $49.90
Barely-there sandals are extremely trendy, so we can’t help but include these snake print heels mid-heels to the list. They add a gorgeous subtle pop of colour and are the perfect way to dress up an outfit with a popular print.
Price Point: CAD $249
It still rains in the spring time! Rock these crocodile print boots to the office, to a nice dinner, or a formal gathering—keep your feet dry while looking chic.
Stand out in Neon
Price Point: CAD $144.95
Didn’t we mention that bold is trending? This is what we mean. These Jeffrey Campbell boots are everything you need for strangers to stop you on the street and ask what you’re wearing. We love them in both colours and we wouldn’t mind living in them. Don’t be afraid of neon this year!
Price Point: CAD $80 (Sale!)
You can wear neon and look sophisticated with these adorable patent slides. Throw these on with a simple outfit knowing you’ll be able to walk around comfortably.
Plastic, please
Price Point: CAD $147.95
If you want to try the clear plastic trend but are worried it may be too much, try these mixed-media mules for a more elegant take on the full plastic. It’s the perfect mixture of trendy but classy.
Zara Low Slingbacks With Vinyl
Price Point: CAD $45.90
The slingback is in, so show off your stylish side comfortably with these pointed toe flats. We love the contrast between black vinyl and clear plastic.
Price Point: CAD $100
This one’s for the more daring ladies—rock a nearly bare foot in these white sandals with both a clear heel and straps. It’s like walking on air…kind of. Show off those pretty pedicures.
Weaves and Tassels
Price Point: CAD $159
Up-to-date fashion doesn’t always have to be shocking. We love these Dr. Martens take on loafers. Tassels are popular in any way, shape, or form. So if you prefer to keep it simple, this is the shoe for you.
Price Point 49.90 CAD
You’ll definitely see weaves and braids a lot this year—these woven flats add a unique twist to your everyday black ballet flats.
Embroidery
Price Point: CAD $34.00 (Sale!)
If you’re looking for something to quickly slip on and off, these mules are exactly that. Embroidered footwear was all over the Spring runway, so switch up your plain slides for these cute floral mules.
Price Point: CAD $160
For the on-the-go gal, when you put these on you’ll quickly realize these embroidered ankle boots are made for walkin’. Plus they’re a fun and flirty addition to a plain outfit (and we all love those plain outfits).
Geometric heels
Price Point: CAD $99.90
The cowboy boot heel and mule mesh is a thing, and we are absolutely for it. It’s so intriguing and will surely spice up your wardrobe and flatter your posture, even with a plain black shoe like this one.
Price Point: CAD $99.90
A rust-coloured slingback with a cool wooden heel. Need I say more? If you’re looking for sophisticated fun, you have found it.
Price Point: CAD $228
The narrow-to-wide heel is something we hope we’ll be able to dedicate an entire shoe closet for this year. We love this trend, and these square-toe boots are a perfect winter to spring transition shoe that will surely have your friends feeling envious of your footwear.
Price Point: CAD $100
Another great transition from winter to spring. These slingback mules are the perfect hybrid between a bootie and a sandal—and not to mention those fierce heels! If we could own them in every colour, we would finally feel satisfied.
Pastel kicks
Price Point: CAD $114.00
Lavender and highlighter yellow: two very trendy colours, both in one shoe. Don’t sacrifice comfort or style with these sneakers.
Price Point: CAD $125
High end designers have showcased this year’s releases in sea foam green, just like these Nike Air Max Thea sneakers. Keep an eye out for this gorgeous colour when making fashion choices.
Colour Of The Year
Price Point: CAD $99
Coral slides are cute and comfortable. These Kurt Geiger sandals will get you through the entire spring/summer season without any complaints, and possibly a few dozen compliments.
Price Point: CAD $209
If you prefer to rock the colour of the year in a sturdy pair of boots all year round, Timberland has you covered. We are not-so-secretly in love with these.
Slides and Sandals
Price Point: CAD $74
Prada has made their own version of Teva platform sandals this year, but we personally enjoy sticking to the original. These are extremely comfortable and will be making a huge appearance this year.
Price Point: CAD $72.00
A comfortable platform sandal is necessary, but if you prefer to slide on and off quickly, these are the shoes for you. They’re bulky, and strappy, and bold—perfect.
