Shoe Smarts

 Post 3
In this industry it is important that we look to our favorite designer collections and fashion magazines to view the evolution of fashion from one season to the next. They along with other channels such as  fashion forecasters give us expertise on what trends are current and up and coming, an important resource for those in the industry as well as everyday Fashionistas.  But we can also look to whats being worn in the streets around the globe to inspire us and see what is hot right now. New York is a great place to start with all of its incredibly unique and stylish individuals. I found that walking through the streets of NYC there is a trend that is growing in popularity, a shift away from the casual flip flop is now heading toward a dressier shoe. I see the more and more women not afraid to take on a heel, seeing the wedge as the best way to dress up any look without enduring a six inch Louboutin. The days of $5.00 Old Navy flip flops are over, making way for Oxfords, wedges, boots and more chic, dressy shoes.
