Head-Turning Heels, Spring 2010

Nothing makes an outfit come together like a great pair of shoes. For many, shoes rise above many accessorized items such as handbags, and jewelry. Focusing our attention towards some of 2010's hottest spring shoe trends, BusaccaFashionGallery.com provides an updated mash up of what we've seen the past few years, the notable exception being that wedge heels have completed their comeback after a hiatus of a few years.
Like last year, light and mid-tone neutral shoes are all the rage, with tans, beige's, taupe's, and creams abounding, and natural exotic skins not far behind. But don't despair if you prefer a bit of color on your feet; there will still be several non-neutral shades to choose from this Spring, with shades of blues and greens as the front runners. The perfect complement to the season's hottest shoe colors are light-colored, earthy accents like cork, natural wood, and rope-covered heels, so it's lucky for us that there are a plethora of such styles to choose from. After a couple of years on the back burner, wedges started to make their return last Spring, and this year, their comeback is complete. In addition to the fact that many women find wedge heels easier to wear than stilettos, they're also great for showcasing some of the season's other top trends like rope and cork accents.
Woven, Gladiator and Booties, heavier sandals are edging out their skimpier counterparts for the third year running, with woven sandals, wide collared sandals, and bootie sandals all making the fashion pages again this year. Versace’s gladiator heels were super-trendy and gorgeous in bright, shiny emerald green. Paired with a simple satin shirt dress and sunglasses, the technicolor shoes became the focus of the outfit. If you have an amazing shoe like that, it makes sense to show it of! News that will come as a relief to many of you is that gladiator sandals won't be nearly as prevalent as they were last year. Another subtle difference in this year's sandal styles is that instead of all-over heaviness, we're going to be seeing shoes that combine a hefty element with other thinner ones. For example, a thick ankle collar with a skimpy vamp strap, or a wide t-strap with lots of skinny woven straps attached to it. It's all in the details, ladies.
