Top Shoe Trends for Fall/Winter 2008

Whether you’re looking for boots, flats, heels or sneakers, this season has something for everyone. Winter 2008 is all about the future. Think chunky straps, geometric shapes and down-right funky fringe. Boots are still among the top choice for many women, whether they’re being worn somewhere casual or for going out on the town. The pump is also back in a huge way. This time, it’s been re-invented in colorful shades of suede or patent leather, with chunkier heels and lace-up options. This season’s most popular colors are rich and dark; deep purples, chocolate, heather grey, and cognac.

Let’s take a look at some of this season’s best-sellers.
