Summer 2014 Shoe Trend: Marvelous Metallics
One of the biggest summer shoe trends for 2014? Metallics. Whether they’re sandals, sneakers, pumps or platforms, these eye-popping, shiny shoes are in. We’re currently lusting over the following five pairs by Stuart Weitzman.
The Hubcapsbullets Wedge, $425
These mixed metallic, bronze-hued wedges are adorned with gold and silver studs—on the toe band, the ankle strap, and of course, the wedge heel itself. Made of Nappa leather and a rubber sole, they’re also equipped with a soft footbed for comfort. These leg-lengthening wedges have a unique wow-factor, and do not hold back on showing off their shiny style.
While it is somewhat of a “mandal”, the Nappa leather foil, which runs across the feet as two thick buckled straps, gives these slip-on sandals a decidedly feminine — and sparkly — feel. The cork footbed and rubber sole make them wonderfully comfortable, and even though they are simple shoes, their metallic shine will bring about plenty of attention.
Cool metallic kicks are hard to come by, and these golden, grommet-covered sneakers are just about the sweetest we’ve seen. Made of Vecchio Nappa leather and fitted with a sleek rubber sole, they have both a cool Velrco strip and tieable laces that slither up the front.
It’s easy to see how these barely-there sandals got their name. Made from Goosebump Nappa leather, these textured golden heels are serious show-off party shoes. The four and ½ inch heel, delicate ankle strap, covered back, and of course, golden gleam, make them absolute stunners.
Go out and play in these python-print mini wedges. The one and ¾ inch wedge, adjustable back strap and soft footbed make them super comfortable, without sacrificing their quirky style. And the sweet leather sole is the perfect compliment to these multi-strap, adjustable metallic shoes.
