The best examples for inspiration may be found among pointy toe T-straps with very many colour variations, the multiplied looks from Fendi accompanied with double ankle straps and the colourful and classic T-strap shoes as well.

6.     Thong Sandals

To quote Stylebistro; “This year’s Thong sandals are a synthesis of styles and vibes reaching the highest limits of imagination and maybe even beyond, resulting in the creation of a real masterpiece, especially in terms of combining essential details and styles together”. This is the case with the early year thong sandal combos of flip-flop heels, featuring the elements of both the shapes and nicely combining them in one look. Thong sandals are one of the best examples for that brand new shoe trend.
