High shoes entered into female use a couple of decades ago, but if earlier they were rather rough and courageous, now there is a greater variety of models. This shoe is not only comfortable for those who lead an active lifestyle, but also helps protect the foot. The height of the shoes and the material from which they are made, do not allow to get to the foot of moisture and cold, road dust and stones. In addition, it is worth remembering that such shoes are at the peak of popularity, which means that a fashionable autumn and winter image will not do without it.
What is the name of?
In addition to the simplified and understandable name “high shoes”, such shoes have a few more names. You should not get lost, having encountered in the articles or online stores the names “high-toed boots” or “high-top boots”. Both those and others mean that the shoes are at least higher than the ankles, and as a maximum can reach to the middle of the shin. High berz implies the presence of lacing, but the high ankle can be without clasps, but wider, so that you can easily stick your foot.
Fashion models
Women's berets have almost all the external signs of the same shoes: height, design, thick sole, lacing. And yet, even the deliberate rudeness that designers give shoes of a certain style does not allow us to confuse fashionable shoes from the attribute of military uniforms. Often, lacing emphasizes or softens the appearance, the same applies to decorative elements, although they are not present very often. The thickness of the sole varies from thin and elastic to thickened and most often corrugated or with a special tread to protect against how many surfaces. The height of the shoes is possible both short (just above the ankle) and long (up to the middle of the leg).
High boots can be not only laced, but also with a zipper. However, there are models without zippers at all, in which case shoes have a wide bootleg. These shoes are often low or medium height. The absence of clasps and fasteners allows you to use more decorative elements that will not compete with such a visible accent as the laces.
Most often, the shoes have a round toe shape, but recent trends have brought a trend to pointed toes. In addition, despite the fact that this type of footwear implies a comfortable low sole without lifting, many fashion houses could not deny such a whim as a heel. To match the style, it is either low and square, or tall and thickened. Most likely, if the shoes have a heel, then there will be a platform, so that a noticeable lift does not deprive the shoes of convenience.
Shoes are divided by seasonality. In addition to a large number of demi-season models, you can purchase not only winter, but even summer high boots. Winter is insulated and can withstand even obscenely low temperatures, but their design is often laconic and does not differ in a particular pile of parts. To diversify the modest design of winter boots, they use fur not only as a heater, but also as an ornament. Short sheepskin or voluminous furs are placed around the tops of the tops.
Summer models, on the contrary, need more ventilation. In addition to lightweight fabric and leather materials, they resort to such stylistic solutions as cutouts. Not only open toes and heels are in fashion, but also cuts on the side parts of the shoes or in the form of patterns throughout the existing canvas. Summer shoes are mostly bright colors and richly decorated with stones, rhinestones, embroidery.
The style of shoes is most often casual, less often romantic. However, the most top is the military style, because it looks so organically in the performance of this shoe. "Military" design does not deprive the shoes of the opportunity to be in heels, and the lacing is not a non-replaceable attribute. The military style is given by the appearance of a coarse look, color, as well as decorative elements used in the design: rivets, straps, buckles, chains, stars.
Material
Leather is one of the main materials who use for shoes. One, it allows you to expand the range of matte variations, varnished, specially aged or deformed embossed under the skin of a snake or a crocodile. For footwear not only genuine leather is possible, but also a leather substitute. Leather is suede, the second most common type of materials for shoes. Unlike usual, suede is velvety and textured.
Some designers choose for such a seemingly coarse and practical shoes, such as high shoes, unusual materials, such as nubuck and even velvet. Textiles, denim are used as decorative elements and inserts.
Colour
Autumn practical footwear assumes use of a certain palette - dark. Such colors cannot be spoiled by rain and mud from puddles; it is easy to combine it with outer clothing, even the most unusual and bright. Black and cinnamon - a classic for autumn and winter shoes. Gray, light shades of brown, dark blue, green, burgundy colors are a little less common. With very light shoes, for example, beige, white, pastel shades everything is much more complicated, because they require a very reverent attitude and care.
Much easier is the case with bright colors, for example, red, yellow, orange and red, shiny metallic. On the one hand, they are not boring, but, on the contrary, juicy. On the other hand, they are not like white ones, dust and drops are visible.
In addition to the monochromatic colors on the shoes can cause prints. The most common drawings - animalistic, imitating the colors of animal skins. Less often, for high shoes, they take flower plots, although they instantly make simple shoes very feminine and bright. This season in the fashion "upholstery" print, similar to the drawings on the sofas and furniture.
Brands
Shoes are popular shoes loved by women all over the world. Therefore, many brands seek to replenish their collections with them. Among them: Emilio Pucci, Giorgio Armani, Kenzo, Christian Dior, Marni, VeraWang, AlexanderMcQueen, Erdem, SaintLauren. In addition to the famous and famous, high shoes are easy to find in the stores of the network of available brands, as well as companies involved in the production of specialized shoes, such as the Trail LADY WINTER and Toff.
How to lace up?
It is unusual to lace up shoes fashionably, especially among young people. On the Internet you can find a lot of pictures and training videos on how to give shoes a non-standard look. Among the most popular and most popular techniques is a traditional zigzag, decorative inside from the outside, complicated and at the same time fashionable straight. The height of the shoes allows you to experiment and select different patterns of lacing, depending on the situation and mood.
How to pick up?
A high heel will increase centimeters in height for short girls, but it should be discarded high. For them, the best flat sole or heels, as for girls of medium height. The height of the tops will help to hide the legs, if the calves and legs are a bit plump. And those who, on the contrary, are too thin and fragile, should pay attention to models with large decorative elements, for example, chains and straps. As with the purchase of any other shoes, it is very important to choose the right size so as not to harm the foot when wearing shoes for a long time.
What to wear?
Many casual and casual trousers, and, of course, jeans are suitable for high boots. Elongated or shortened, they somehow hide under a high bootleg. But breeches knee-high wear with high shoes are not recommended, especially young ladies.The next optimal length is short, so that the shorts of various models look especially stylish with boots (tall and tight or loose, slightly elongated).
Suitable for boots, even in military style, skirts and dresses. You can choose casual and denim models, but romantic light dresses with coarse shoes will be equally stylishly combined. And with shorts, and with short skirts or dresses in the cold season it is worth wearing tights. Boots allow you to wear interesting and fun options, and classic plain colors can be complemented with high leggings or knitted stockings.
Special attention should be paid to outerwear.because it is primarily seen in the cold season. Blazers and leather jackets for the beginning of the rainy season will be indispensable, creating with high boots or a contrast, or a daring image. Already later, coats of different styles (both classic and oversize), fur parks and down jackets can be combined with them.
