New Chanel Shoes Imitate Oak Cork
One of the greatest designers of nowadays, Carl Lagerfeld, continues his creative work and unveils new footwear models to the joy of his admirers. Here we are going to speak about new Chanel shoes from summer 2011 cruise collection presented by the legendary Fashion house in Saint-Tropez on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea.
At fight sight, the new pair Chanel shoes is as if made of oak cork, but let’s have a closer look at it. In truth, the shoes are made of thin calve patent leather and feature classic toes covered with red patent leather.
Such toe design is not accidental for it was used by the founder of the brand herself in order to provide the shoes with an excellent protection against foul weather. Originally, the toes were made of rubber and helped the shoes stay dry, but now this feature is though widely used by Carl Lagerfeld plays just a decorative role.
The new Chanel shoes stand out of the crowd by unusual texture and cork-like patent leather surface that makes them pretty and extremely eye-catching. The shoes are equipped with 4-inch heels that feature a decorative metal bead at their base.
These neat shoes combine traditional Chanel style and the perfect design. They are ideal for evening outings on a seaside holiday.
Fall-Winter 2010 Shoe Trends Review
| All fashion designers have already presented their collections for Fall – Winter 2010/11. So it is high time to tally up everything we have seen on a catwalk. Below are the most popular and interesting shoe trend for a season to come. |
| Fur boots. Winters are getting colder over the globe recently, so the trend looks quite attractive and practical. Besides, if you wear fur boots by Chanel or Lanvin you will feel not only warmth and comfort but looks of admiration too. |

| Laced-up boots. Laces are getting very popular. Such footwear is very comfy and looks great, but taking it off can be a problem. The best laced-up boots were presented by Fendi, Givenchy and Erdem. |

| Shoes with buckles. It is a surprise to see shoes with buckles on a catwalk. Spring and summer footwear also featured this detail. Now the trend is gaining power and popularity and the slogan for the seasons to come is ‘the more buckles, the better’. Though they might bring the same problem as laces, I personally do not see it as a problem. Instead, the greatest advantage of buckles is that they look extravagant and interesting and provide great support and fixation for the foot. |

| Chunky heels. Although stilettos look glamorous chunky heels are much more comfortable. And plenty of women prefer being safe and comfy rather than sexy and scared of falling down. Besides, nobody says that wearing chunky heels you will not look sexy either. Just try the boots featuring chunky heels by Michael Kors, Versace or Ivatore Ferragamo and you will obviously love them. |

| Unusual combination of colors. Fall is a rather gloomy season, so all you need is to brighten it up. To brighten up our footwear designers have chosen the technique of combining colors. Yellow goes together with brown, red is mixed with pink. More variables are possible. |
