Retro: Shoe styles that are making a comeback – Part 1
Author: admin
Whereas history sometimes repeats itself, so does fashion. Women's shoe styles are no exception. We are finally moving from the fuzzy, over-sized boot phase into retro shoe styles, and this is long overdue.
Animal Prints
Leopard, zebra and cheetah prints are all the rage. Nothing says sexy' like a dead cat or horse on your feet I guess. I might knock it, but I do have to admit that I saw a pair of zebra heels at Target that I fell in love with. Some brands which are embracing this comeback include Steve Madden, Guess, Baby Phat, and Dolce and Gabbana.
Polka-dots
Polka-dotted shoes were huge back in the day. They scream "housewife". While some are hideous, there are quite a number I found online that are extremely cute. Just choose wisely! Pinupgirlclothing.com has a good selection of these.
Peep-toes
Peep-toes are shoes, usually high heels, which have a small opening for your toes to peek through. Mary Janes are cashing in on these big time. Some now have over-sized buckles and exposed stitching to accent the shoe. So show off that pedicure of yours with some peep-toes, ladies! They are too cute to pass up.
Pinup Slingbacks
These comeback kids are shoes, sometimes featuring the peep-toe, which have a strap going around the back of the foot. Many have bows and concealed platforms to boot. Elle, Easy Street, Franco Sarto, Style&Co., and many more shoe companies have these lined up on the assembly line, just waiting to be filled.
Mules
Mules are backless shoes which are an increasingly popular choice for men as well as women. They can be sporty, like mule sneakers, elegant, or they can land somewhere in between. Babygirl Inc., Fitzwell Meredith, and Dansko Merrie make a good number of these.
Stilettos
Stiletto heeled shoes are those which are very high and very thin. They are also a pain to walk in. For a big variety look for the Flashdance brand.
Pumps
Lastly we have the good old fashion pumps. Sparkles seem to be "in" with these. The glitzier, the better. Personally, I just don't get it. BabygirlInc. has these in stock.
If you are looking to help bring back these styles by purchasing a pair, just be sure to choose wisely. While some of these are adorable, they can also be a killer on your feet. There's nothing sexy about a pinup shoe with a bunion-covered foot in it.
How To Buy Shoes Online

Once you have narrowed down which types of shoes, you should read the description of the shoes to see which ones you will want to wear. If you have a narrow or wide foot, then you should look for sizes that will accommodate this. When looking for specific sizes, you should make sure that they have your size. Do not buy a shoe that is a half size too big or small, as they may not fit.
There are many brand name shoes you can purchase online including Adidas, Rockport, Reebok, and Birkenstock. If you have owned shoes and sneakers from these companies, then you can probably order them online without having to visit the stores. When your new shoes arrive, you should try them on to see if they fit correctly. If not, then you will be able to return them for another size or your money back. You should try to find the same shoe in a different size. Most online stores will allow you to exchange or return shoes after you have purchased them. If an online store does not allow for exchanges, then you should shop elsewhere.
Running shoes and sandals are popular shoes to purchase during the spring. Prom shoes and bridal shoes are also popular. You should find a shoe that complements your dress and ones that you can wear again. Wedding shoes are traditionally white, but there are also other light shades that will be appropriate.
If you plan on taking up running, you should buy a running shoe that will give you a lot of support and absorb pavement shock. The shoes should fit comfortably, but should not feel snug. Adidas running shoes and New Balance running shoes that are too tight will cause you to have blisters and other foot issues. If you do not find a shoe online, you can always visit stores and try shoes on first before buying them.
