There is a new head-turning fashion that will be sure to get people talking and literally turns a look inside out. It’s a very simple trick that will transform your stylish footwear quickly. Simply tie the laces of your high heels around the bottom of your pant leg.
When you want to show off a nice pair of lace-up heels, you may have some sleek images of ideas that come to mind. But, there is an upcycled classic style trend from years gone by that is taking off again. Instead of reaching for that mini or midi to show off and accent the shoes, grab a pair of pants instead. The latest in fashion is wearing those lace-up heel shoes over pant legs. And, why not! Why would anyone want to keep hiding those stylish shoes tucked under when you can reveal them and turn the outfit into a whole new look. Here’s how it’s done.
Select your favorite pair of strappy heels, and instead of neatly tucking them up out of site underneath jeans, wrap them around the ankle of your pants. Any style of pant leg works well with this fashion trend. A pair of ankle-tight jeans gives a different stylish look than wide, flowing ankled pants will. But, they all work to tie up the shoes around the hem at the ankle. The look works with any heel that has a lengthy strap that is long enough to reach around the fabric, whether the strap buckles or ties.
Look closely, and you will find this trend of lace-up sandal heels tied around the pant leg on the feet of fashion influencers on runways and on the feet of in-the-know people everywhere. The style works wherever you go, whether you’re just kicking around for the day to hang out with friends or stepping it up at the office.
Pair this look with an off-the-shoulder blouse, a jacket that rests at thigh level or below, a coat, or any top that nicely complements the outfit. This strapping new look also works very well with pant suits especially when done to neatly draw in the ankle as if to almost gather the bottom of your leg and showing off the shoes in the process.
While the look is going to draw the focus to the bottom of your pant leg, you still might want to keep that pedi appointment just to make sure your feet and toes are ready for the attention as well.
