With track-sole boots becoming virtually ubiquitous last winter, it was only a matter of time before the chunky-sole trend infiltrated other types of footwear. That’s why it hardly came as a surprise this year when we started seeing statement loafers launch across luxury and high-street brands.  When it comes to designer brands, Prada has been one of the labels at the forefront of this trend. The Italian fashion house launched logo-embellished chunky loafers earlier last year, garnering the attention of models and influencers including Elsa Hosk, Pernille Teisbæk and more. (The coveted style has since sold out across multiple platforms.)  Understandably, several other brands have also embraced the trend, with Proenza Schouler adding i...

If you were to ask if I’m a heels or trainers kind of girl, I’ll always pick heels. Sure, I snapped up the New Balance 550 kicks as quickly as I could, but for me, heels always win. While my mule collection is getting quite excessive (they’ve taken over every cupboard in the lounge, too), I’m always on the lookout for new shoes to try out. And I am quite literally obsessed—along with the rest of Instagram–with one particular pair right now: slingbacks. These are, of course, not anything new when it comes to the style. It’s a ’50s favourite worn by the likes of Marilyn Monroe in that skirt scene, and Coco Chanel put slingbacks on the map with the now-iconic two-tone pair.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates O...

As the runways become increasingly seasonless, so do our wardrobes. This, of course, is aided by the fact we live in Britain, where only a few weeks in the summer and winter feel truly distinguishable. As a consequence, boots have become something of a year-round staple, which makes investing in the right pair so important. Get it right, and you’ll have purchased something you could very realistically wear for near-enough 300 days out of the year (give or take). And it just so happens now is the perfect time to discuss the boot trends that matter in 2021 that you can carry through to next year, too.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Consider this a love letter to the humble winter boot. If there’s one cold-weather wardrobe item we can’t live without, it would be—you guessed it—winter boots. (Okay, and maybe a coat or two, but you get the picture.) Our winter boots see us through muddy walks, work meetings and even party season, basically carrying our outfits and transitioning them from day to night and vice versa, depending on the style. We’re sure we’re not alone when we say that we pretty much start wearing ours on 1 September and don’t take them off until summer forces us to. You might even say we’re boot connoisseurs, considering that everyone on the WWW team has basically made it their life’s mission to find and share the best styles out there, from luxe designer pai...

Even before the slipper-clad months of lockdown, I never would’ve considered myself a heel person. Yes, I do enjoy a heeled boot during the winter months, but when it comes to needle-thin stilettos and arch-crippling soles, I’m afraid my tolerance is fairly low. This is why shopping for party shoes has become my fashion nemesis, and with my 30th coming up at the end of the month, I knew I had to bite the bullet. Thankfully, ASOS saved me a whole lot of grief, as it just created the perfect pair of party heels. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Talk about the perfect party inspiration. If we weren’t already thinking about the upcoming events season, we certainly are now. Of course, we’d expect nothing less from Jimmy Choo—a long-time purveyor of the most iconic dancing shoes. Yes, these are serious investment pieces, but they’re also the kind of accessories you’ll bring out for every fancy event year after year. Beiber and her sparkles may be blinding, but while we’re here, let’s not overlook the other half of Jimmy Choo’s impressive new collection, which is much more about cosy winter walks than dancing the night away (just in case that’s more your thing). Come on, have you ever seen a more perfect pair of lace-up boots? (Take a look below, and let us know.) And then there’s the understated Varenne satchel bag, which you’r...

If there’s one boot trend I’m excited for this autumn, it’s a style that manages to walk that tricky tightrope between casual and sophisticated. This magical trend is at once super smart (and therefore a refreshing break from stompy track soles, even though I’ll still keep going back them, LBH) and yet still not so OTT or uncomfortable that I’ll have to compromise on the ease or daily wear opportunities. Enter the kitten-heel, pull-on, knee-high boots that will make every outfit feel a little more elevated with very little effort.  I’m a big knee-high-boot fan, in general, so it didn’t take much persuading, but many in my existing wintry collection are very high of heel. After more than 18 months in the comfiest of fla...

In the world of women’s shoes, I long held an underlying frustration with the lack of clean-lined, classic styles on offer. Men’s shoes always seemed to have this polished timelessness that I so craved from my shoe purchases. Why was it so hard to find a well-designed lace-up without all the bells and whistles? Then along came Church’s. The brand is hardly a new addition to the shoe scene (it dates back to the 19th century), but I didn’t fall in love with Church’s achingly chic designs until I discovered them on the feeds of timeless trendsetters such as Lizzy Hadfield and Brittany Bathgate. The brand’s shoes cover everything from loafers to sturdy boots. It really is a flat-shoe lover’s dream. You know that these are the sort of shoes that will tr...

Winter presents many sartorial dilemmas. Will your chunky knit fit under your tailored coat? Is one pair of tights enough to withstand the chill? How many layers can you wear without looking like Joey Tribbiani wearing all of Chandler Bing’s clothes? The biggest quandary of them all, however, is which shoes to wear over the course of the next few months. We don’t want to sound dramatic, because there are, of course, worse things than having cold feet, but nevertheless, it’s not exactly enjoyable. So whether you’re heading out for a wintry walk or are planning your footwear for party season, warmth is a key factor to consider. Naturally, practicality should also be considered, but that doesn’t mean you have to scrimp on style. From the pair ...

I’ve made no secret of the fact that I love sneakers. I spend a fair amount of time wearing them and own quite a few pairs. I find I nearly always turn to trainers rather than heels, which, as a fashion editor, isn’t the usual choice. And despite the fact that trainers have become way more acceptable in the fashion world, I’m probably still a bit of an outlier. Today, I want to talk about the best designer trainers. The thing is it’s actually quite hard to nail down what designer trainers are. Yes, you could just easily say sneakers created by the biggest fashion houses today, such as Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Balenciaga. However, as a self-confessed trainer obsessive who has spoken to various experts over the years, these aren’t always the kind of s...

You’d be forgiven for thinking that 2017 was basically a decade ago. Thanks to the past 18 months, it’s felt like time has slowed, so what happened “before” feels like a lifetime ago. This means that trends returning from a mere four years ago seem like they’re from ages ago. The trend I’m thinking about today is the sock-boot trend. If you think back to 2017, you’ll remember that Balenciaga’s floral version was all over fashion week on the feet of various influencers. As a result, high-street brands copied the style, and the trend exploded.  Then, it died down. We became obsessed with combat lace-up styles, cowboys, and let us not forget the ever-popular track- and chunky-sole boots. However, I’m here to tell y...
