Heels vs Sliders


By IMAGE
27th Jul 2014

It’s the shoe debate of the summer and we’re sussing out both sides…

There are two sides to high-fashion feet this season. Everyone from Prada to Stella McCartney took a poolside approach to sandals, complete with padded leather for soft landing and delicate decoration. For those unconvinced of ground control, heeled beauties are here with a little extra va va voom; see Paul Andrew’s work of art in elegant, pump form, below left, for inspired foot candy. Whatever you choose, high or low, step into the summer in style.

Which side are you on? Heel?

Or slider?
