Of course, there are the classic investment pairs – those you’ll be wearing for years to come – but also the lust-worthy, can’t-stop-thinking-about-them shoes and accessories that will make your every ensemble feel complete.
Kick-start the year one step ahead with our preview of the upcoming trends and tips on how to wear them.
We make no secret of the fact that we gravitate towards all things shiny – gems and jewels, glitter and diamonds, sequins, tin foil… anything that shines is sure to catch our eye! So it comes as no surprise that our inner-magpies are infatuated with 2016’s silver shoe trend. The look of luxe isn’t just for Christmas; the very nature of metallics as shiny, bold and new gives them an ageless edge that exceeds the seasons. Whether you swap out your neutrals for a subtle silver shade or seek a shimmering style that is sure to illuminate your look from the feet up, the mirror-toned hue is putting your feet in the Ag game this year. Whoever said silver was second best?

It may not be a shoe, but we can’t resist adding our essential accessory to the list! This year you’ll always look the business with a sleek leather backpack. Forget commuter-style hiking rucksacks – the new 9-5 backpacks are slick, minimalist affairs. Still brilliantly practical, they’ll leave your hands free and offer enough storage space to hold everything you need for your working day, yet remain sophisticated enough to never look out of place in the office.
