The Fall 2016 Trend Petite Girls Are Going to L-O-V-E
It’s time for a new shoe silhouette to dominate—specifically, platform shoes. For the past few years, flats have completely stolen our attention when it comes to shoes. From sporty pool slides and Stan Smiths to sexy d’Orsay flats, there isn’t a flat shoe the fashion industry hasn’t fallen for, forcing even the most reluctant to trade in their stilettos. (The shift is tantamount to when boot-cut jeans suddenly gave way to skinnies. That is, historic.) If you’re one of those girls who’s been secretly holding out hope that the style gods would throw you a bone in the form of one major kick-ass heel, your prayers have been answered. Meet fall 2016’s mega-platform shoes.
Taylor Swift in Vetements boots.
With a chunky heel, a rounded toe, and a calf-high upper, these boots look like they’re right out of the days of disco and glam rock. They’re all kinds of badass. And, yeah, yeah, they’re not exactly office-friendly. Or in-laws-friendly. Or dentist-appointment-friendly. But what they lack in versatility they make up for in damn, girl. Make like Taylor Swift and wear them with a feminine dress or do the street-style goddess thing and pair them with cropped skinny jeans and a vintage tee. Whatever you do, enjoy the view from up there.
