Glitter Shoes Are Making A Comeback

From Chanel to Isabel Marant to Victoria Beckham to Coach. They are EVERYWHERE. Party season is a-comin, might as well get a head start.

All it takes is one pair of shoes to send us all in a frenzy. Exactly one season ago, Chanel left us scrapping our jaws off the floors not just because they placed a near life-sized rocket at the Grand Palais, but also because they sent down a bunch of glitter boots in a variety of cuts. Fast forward a season later, glitter shoes seem to be at the top of everyone’s shopping list ours included. We’ll have the Chanel ones and then some more.

Glitter shoes were the object of desire way back when our ages were in the single digits, and while our younger selves would have hugged the season’s glitter shoes to sleep like we would a stuff toy, these glitter shoes aren’t child’s play. In addition to Chanel’s space glitter boots (they’re flying off the shelves, by the way, we checked), Victoria Beckham and Coach went for glitter-covered footwear for their recent Spring/Summer ’18 collections. Saint Laurent and Marco de Vincenzo also make the case for crystal-embellished boots. Not exactly glitter, but undoubtedly just as shiny. Shiny is what you want. I mean, Christmas is coming and there’s no time like the present to get a head start on party wear.

We love something simple like the glittered sock boot from Oscar Tiye and Princetown loafers from Gucci, but if you’re a “go big or go home” kind of girl, go chunky with Isabel Marant, Giuseppe Zanotti or Miu Miu. Hold on tight and keep a pair of shades at arms reach, because you’re just about to be blinded.
