Yes, you read that right and it’s not a typo. The newest shoe trend this spring is called FLATFORMS, as seen in the Spring runways of Prada, Derek Lam and Vena Cava! It’s literally a combination of flat and platform shoes. Let’s face it. We also want to take a break from those killer high heels from time to time. We also get worried that we might get those unsightly varicose veins in the future. Now, there’s a new option for those who are not so blessed with long legs- flatforms! It can give us that much needed height when wearing mid-length skirts or wide-leg trousers, less the worry of aching toes and legs. Wondering how it looks? See photo below.

So, what do you think of flatforms? Are you digging it? 🙂 They say it’s uber comfortable to walk with them. I guess it’s worth a try. 🙂
