Fabulous in Flats


For us, spring trends have arrived gift wrapped in one handy little package. So we invented a simple rhyme to prove it: Pastels, Brights, Florals, Whites. Seriously, stick to this and you can’t go wrong!

This week, we’re applying it to the wonderful world of shoes and are showcasing the very best picks from this season’s flats. 

Pay attention to the part at the end when we tell you how to take care of them, though. With Hong Kong’s weather showering more moisture over us than England could in one year, you’ll be needing every tip!

Just LOOK at this sherbet-y array of patent flats. They’re good enough to eat. This season, Office is shouting about: “Athletic Aesthetic. Clean lines and architectural forms typify this trend with futuristic finishes and neon flashes”. So have fun with colour and add a bit of candy to your springtime outfit.

For a crisp, fresh backdrop to your entire colourful spring dress collection, make sure you have at least one pair of white leather flats or canvas espadrilles. Shop online at Topshop for these beautifully crafted cut-outs and enjoy style and comfort.

Marc Jacobs combines no less than three of this season’s top styles to create these cute bow front flats. With the feminine lace, gorgeous floral design and bright red colour, these are a favourite to pair with white jeans or a dress.

Now, if you’re like us and love a good fashion magazine, you’ve probably noticed our next pick on your jaunts; they are a hit everywhere. These bright BB Pixel flats are guaranteed to liven up any outfit and put a spring in your step. They’re available at our very own Lane Crawford in the IFC Mall, so what are you waiting for?!

We’ll leave you with one stellar word of advice. If you’re investing in shoes that you just love, you need to invest in a way to keep them in the state you first found them. This is achievable by making one simple choice: when buying a shoe tree, opt for unvarnished cedar wood.

As soon as you take off you shoes, pop the cedar wood shoe tree in and leave it to work its magic. Not only will the tree restore shape to your shoes but it will also draw out any unwanted moisture due to rain, humidity and perspiration. This will leave your shoes dry, odour free and ready to be enjoyed again and again.

Have fun shoe shopping and stay Savvy!
