Emerging Fervour

Style 2: Open Toe Boots

Another trend you can’t miss at the moment is the open toe boots that are trotting along everywhere, be that on the catwalks, celebrities or on us.

I have to admit, I couldn’t figure out what this trend is about, as all I could think of when I look at them is, why would you want to have warm ankles, yet cold toes? Just doesn’t make sense to me (actually that is my mothers voice I can hear in my ear!).

However, looking outside and having had the warmest day of the year this week but now its grey and getting cold again, I now understand. These confused boots fit perfectly into this confusing weather!

There are some unbelievably stunning designer ones out, a lot of them, however with price tags ranging between £300 and £1,000, it would be too painful to look at what you can’t get so I hunted the high streets for the ones that won’t break your bank account (or only dent it a bit).

Dinah boots @ Bertie £110

We all know the world and fashion goes round and round. I’ve stumbled across a video about the military trends in 1994 and you could easily wear quite a few of the outfits and fit right into the military trend. Oh and spot a young Naomi and Kate Moss in there!!

I do prefer the 2009 version though as it’s become much more edgy.
