The shoes on the runways of Milan and Paris: Lace-ups

This is the last of my three posts about all the wonderful shoes seen recently in Milan and Paris during FW. This one's about the ones with shoe laces.

Louis Vuitton
Shiny, shimmery metal accents characterized the shoes here -- and in a very nice way. Talk about spicing up your corporate getup; these are the shoes!

But if you want to play it safe (well, somehow), the Brit brand has the answers with their brown and black pieces. But there's red, too, if you wanna change your mind.

Ombre, that gorgeous effect of graduated shades, also made appearances in Milan and Paris. Blacks and grays would be common but they also had browns and reds.

Spectator shoes, brogues, I don't really know what to call them. But who cares when you have beautiful pieces? I'm a fan of contrasts, so having contrasting materials and patterns in one shoe is pretty awesome.

Now I haven't really jumped on the clunky shoes train but compromises can be made, like tempering the design by limiting the clunky part to only one end of the shoe or wowing me altogether with bold and graphic patterns, like these ones here.
