Miista, known for thoughtful shoes with unexpected details gives us some of the brightest and best brogues each season. The Adelaide, was inspired by the sun coming down over the Sahara Desert.  Designer Laura Villasenin envisioned this when she created this very special oxford, the Adelaide,evening sky. This matt yet glimmering upper captures that glorious moment with this unique glitter-like, textile upper. There is a lot to enjoy here but these brogues are just a pleasure to slip on and relax in, thanks to this modern, comfy silhouette. Shop now

YRU is known for their signature techno finishes in their shoe collections.  This season they took one of the most coveted silhouettes in fashion right now, the block heel boot, and put their own YRU stamp on her.  The color of this boot will change depending on the point of view of the light source. Indoors, with normal lighting, the boots will be a shimmery grey iridescent color. In direct sunlight, magic rainbow hints will appear. These boots will be at their best in direct, bright lights as exploding shades of pink, purple, yellow, blue and green appear. Shop Diive

Nothing says girl power more than slipping on a pair of platform boots with attitude. Indulge in the Glencoe for that lusted after, modern vibe. This boot hints at a Chelsea with the functional elastic sides but NOTHING about this boot is ordinary.  The chunky bottom is just right for a girl’s night out dance off. Shop Glencoe

Fashion writers love coining new phrases. This year, thanks to the savvy gals at PopSugar, a new one has come about and seems to be sticking. It’s:  lampshading. Lampshading is wearing a pair of over-the-knee boots with an oversized top that hits around the top of your tall boots.  Of the moment fashion ingénues are frequent advocates of this look (the Kardashian/Jenner crowd to Kate Moss too).  The pairing is comfortable and stylish which is why this trend has some serious legs (pun intended).

We have been feeling thigh boots for a while now and have stocked a collection of not so ordinary ones. Want this to be your uniform? Grab a pair on new thigh highs to nail the look and be sure to pick up a sweater dress too. Lampshade  complete!
