trends in designer shoes 2008

2008 is particularly exciting in womens designer footwear trends. There are a few re-occurring design concepts such as color blocking, geometry, and the use of patent and suede leather that are dominating factors of this years must have’s. More than ever I feel like shoes are making the outfit, so you don’t need much else to pull the bombshell look off. Powerful shoes for powerful women!

We are seeing a lot of chunky but clean and very sexy wedges, open toe ankle boots and just ankle boots in general, and color patch work as seen in the Prada, Fendi, Pierre Hardy and Louboutin shoes featured above. My favorite Collection of shoes this Spring is definitely the Marni Collection. I could snatch just about each pair and wear them to death.
