Over the past few seasons we’ve seen retro fashions come back with a vengeance. Last season it was the ‘80’s, and we saw stores filled with striped knits and tops, and the return of the stripy leg warmer. While we’re happy to see the back of this particular retro trend, we can’t get enough of those stripes…
Trend – Visionary
Forge ahead with these lace-up oxford-style sneakers. These shoes wouldn’t look out of place on the feet of a 70’s TV star (The Partridge Family anyone?), and with retro retaining it’s hot status again this season, they’re a great addition to your wardrobe. Trend-Visionary have a smooth leather upper and come in a choice of two colours – black with chocolate brown, and cream with black.
Shadows – Psyche Just slip on and go – Skechers Shadows-Psyche are perfect for the nzgirl on the go. With their retro styling and mesh upper, these sneakers are comfortable and totally stylish. Shadows-Psyche are made of suede with a mesh upper, and will match perfectly with your favourite jeans, mini or the hot new knickerbockers-style shorts that are everywhere this winter.
Grand Prix – Gear
These are the latest release from Skechers and we just had to share. Grand Prix – Gear feature a quilted upper with a double stripe along the top. They are super-comfy and are perfect for a last wander down to the beach, or to hit the clubs for some serious dancing - no stilettos allowed! They come in black or red and are in stores now.
Topics – Issue We love this stylish, low-profile oxford from Skechers. They come in suede or man-made leather, and have a groovy silver-mesh upper. You’ve got a choice of two colours with the silver mesh – red stripes or blue.
