Shining Mary Janes from Prada
Mary Janes came into fashion at the beginning of the 20th century as kid’s shoes, but soon they “grew up” and became popular with adult women. Initially the shoes came with a strap and a rounded toe, later on a number of fashion houses tried to breathe a second life into the model, namely equipped it with high heels, or embellished it with patent leather elements and or made its toes a bit sharper.
Now it’s Prada who launch their version of the celebrated Mary Janes. The designers preserved a rounded toe and the legendary strap, which makes you immediately recognize the famous shoes. Still, the shoes coincide with the current fashion for a single strap is in this summer.
However, the Prada Mary Janes have two controversial issues. The first of them is a high platfornm. If you imagine classic Mary Janes on a low platform, then you’ll see that the heel shape is perfect. Now it looks rather bulky and heavy.
The second issue is the color. Can you think of any suitable clothes to match these dazzling shoes? Can it be a short dress? Or shorts? What can be said for sure is that you ought to carefully select your outfits before going out in these Mary Janes.
The shoes look too correct, too reasonable, too prefect so that it may cause negative feelings rather than attract. It cannot be said for sure what creates such an effect; either it is the platform or the color. In other respects the shoes are prefect. Even its inner soles are made of soft leather.
The price for the Mary Janes from Prada equals to 600 pounds. All in all, they are too perfect, too loud, too original and… too expensive.
Spring-Summer 2010 Shoe Trends Review
| As spring is at its height, and everyone has already got rid of boring and heavy winter clothing and footwear, it is high time to make a resume about what shoe trends are really popular this season. You may wonder why I like to talk about it now, as everything has been discussed a month ago or even earlier. The point is what we talked about then were pure predictions, and now we can see true facts. So, what is going on in the fashion world this spring, and what actual shoe trends are? |
 |
| Platform Sandals. These shoe models have been popular for more than a season now, but that does not mean that platform shoes are not fresh and trendy. On the contrary, feel free to wear a pair from the previous season and stay fashionista. |
 |
| Mary Janes. In spite of rapidly changing fashion trends, Mary Janes are still in fashion due to their unique comfort and elegance. There are always women who need and love to look elegant even on hot summer days. |
 |
| Stiletto Heels. I consider such trends to be imposed by fashion designers whose shoe collections 99 per cent comprise of stilettos. No doubt, there is hardly anything sexier and trendier than a pair of sky-high heels but are you ready to suffer to look like Posh? |
 |
| Wedges. I have always thought about them as a perfect alternative to stiletto heels. Mush more comfortable and as stylish and elegant. Specific of wedges change from season to season: the mayor difference consists in color decisions, platform shape and materials. |
 |
| Flats. It goes without saying that flats are the very best option for hot days and active people. So, if you are always on the go, what do you choose – sexy heels or trendy flats? Besides, the range of flats is superb now. |
 |
| Sheer & Nude. That is the novelty of Spring – Summer 2010. Only some time ago we looked at such shoes with crazy and surprised eyes, while now take them as the latest trend of the season. |
The Secret Of Comfortable Sport
| Some people when preparing for going to the gym or jogging in park choose footwear according to the principle: comfortably and modestly. Especially it has to do with men, but women love feeling not only comfortable, but also beautiful. Sure, everything ought to be within reasonable limits – for example, a training suit with pastes or evening make-up will look inappropriate. So today I have decided to offer you a list of comfortable and beautiful footwear for going in for sports. |
