So we've covered Urban, combat and over-the-knee this season here at Scarrott's (whilst having a little bit of fun in between, of course!) but for some of you, we're probably barking up the wrong tree. Style-wise, we have a breadth of different tastes and opinions come through our doors and onto our website. And what we've been trending, well, doesn't it seem a bit...heavy?
For those glamazons of you out there, your prayers have been answered. The fashion world has heard the call of the Lady once again and 50s and 60s structure and shapes are winging their way from the catwalks, to the shops, to your wardrobes. This was particularly apparent in Paris, where tea-length skirts, simple shifts and fitted jackets sprung forth from such fêted and legendary fashion houses as Chanel and Givenchy.
The ongoing trend for faux-fur has not stopped at the young leopard-print Topshop version this season, either. Faux-mink trim and elbow-length gloves almost complete the look; the finishing touch has to be the footwear; something that can make or break the outfit. However the difficulty with these longer skirts and tailored looks is that the taller the person, the more streamlined the look.
As most of us don't have the dimensions of 5'10" Cindy Crawford, the obvious solution is to go with sky-high, vampy stilettos. Always the choice court shoe of the style-mavens and much beloved staple of Jimmy Choo and Christian Louboutin; a skyscraper heel doesn't have to mean torture. Now, with platform soles and balanced design, they can be amongst the most comfortable (and fabulous!) footwear you'll ever own.
Classic designs with almond toes always work best with any outfit and date spectacularly well. Gucci have released their Platform Pumps as a 'runway classic' for £365 (above middle picture). Yves Saint Laurent, always the purveyors of classic style, have joined the club with their 'Gaby' platform pumps for £485 (above top picture) .
Here at Keith Scarrott, we scoured shoe fairs, manufacturers and samples all over Europe to find the perfect pair - so that you don't have to!
These gorgeous Rebeca Sanver platforms, above , for £149.95, are perfectly balanced and so comfortable you'll forget their astounding height. Coming in Black Suede, Patent (above 2nd picture), Leather (above fourth picture) and even a splash of glam Scarlet (above bottom picture).
A couple of us even wear them for work, as they are guaranteed to rescue even the most haphazard ensemble and make it look chic! Together with this season's 50's skirts and Mad Men inspired, 60's shifts, you're guaranteed to wow this Winter.
