Heels
A key trend for women’s spring 2015 wardrobe is the heel reinforced with super chunky and sturdy shapes, making way for a heavyweight appeal. The runways include further designs such as platforms featuring serrated rubber soles with mixed materials giving a boost in contrast colors and underlining statement essentials.
There’s also the white heel to make you kiss goodbye to old man winter and welcome the saucy spring season. This trend is a little bit out of the box, yet is different enough to stand out from the usual line. Some white heel designs have also been updated with metallic novelty.
The neon will also return in 2015, but before you turn up your nose and grab the shades, know that this trend has grown up. Now neons are arriving in mature silhouettes, and the traditional pump profiles are getting their spring style updates in sizzling purples and electric yellows.
Socks
Metallic color socks are becoming the talk of the town as seen from the presentations on the runways. The most sought after color is silver, but other colors such as green, crimson, purple and blue are right behind. The highlights also include socks in aquatic patterns featuring colors of the ocean.
Geometrical prints of blocks, squares and checks will be present alongside their metallic counterparts. You will see patterns like cage prints and more abstract geometrical patterns in 2015. The possibilities with different designs and colors in geometrical prints are almost unlimited.
For those who are in need of special clothing because of a health condition, there are options out there for you. For people with diabetes, compression wear options, like diabetic socks, address issues of disease-related irritation while still allowing one to dress stylishly.
Mules
