Ankle boots with fringes – The trend that’s a smash!
Nov
You must be someone that always likes to be fashionable and up-to-date with the latest news, right? In that case, you must already know the trend that’s killing it right now. Of course we’re talking about the fringes! It’s an excellent way to combine both a sophisticated and a relaxed style. And today on the EscapeShoes blog, we’ll specifically talk about the ankle boots with fringes, mainly from two unique and different brands: MTNG and Xuz. Do you wish to see these wonderful and feminine models? Just click!
You must have already noticed as you look at the people walking down the street that there’s a trend that is totally killing it nowadays. It’s the fringes! In truth, fringes are something that has been fashionable for many years. For example, in the 20s, women used fringes in a style that combined rebellion and glamour. Later, the fringes were again the focus of attention in the 70s, in more bohemian looks. And now? Well, personally, I believe that it mixes the two previous styles, in which the fringes give a more sophisticated and elegant touch, but also relaxed, which makes them very versatile. They are ideal both for work and a music festival. And where can you find them? Basically in everything! Clothes, bags and, of course, shoes.
And as you see the new collections from all the brands that we have available at EscapeShoes, you must have already noticed one or another model with this really chic and nifty element. However, in our opinion, there are two specific brands that certainly stand out due to their ankle boots with fringes. Therefore, today’s post will be about this awe-inspiring trend, but, more specifically, about the MTNG booties and the Xuz booties with fringes.
This season, MTNG returned with a bang with several pairs of ankle boots with fringes from its new autumn / winter collection 2015. In this section, we’ll only show you two of these models that have most caught our eye, but remember to see all we have available at our online store.
The first Serraje Sand ankle boots are totally irresistible and it’s easy to see why! In addition of their soft and velvety sand suede, they have those fringes hanged on one side of the shaft. And these fringes are completely removable, since they’re only tied to some straps. But do you want to know a secret? On the opposite side of the fringes, they have an elastic piece in a tad darker shade of sand. On the outside, it’s covered by the same suede that the rest of the shoes are made of, with a small cut in the middle. Hence, it’ll be easier for you to put on these ankle boots! We would also like to point out that you can find this model in black or in brown. So, if this light shade of beige is not the ideal one for you, surely one of the other colours is. 😉
While on the second image, you’ll be able to see the Serraje Moka ankle boots, also made of suede, but in a slightly greyish shade of dark brown. Here, the fringes almost involve the entire shaft, except in a small area at the back, where the zipper is. As always, Mustang always thinks about you with simple and practical ways for you to wear your shoes. However, contrarily to the fringes of the previous model, these are non-removable and are made of two different layers, where the fringes underneath are longer. And the best of all is that they’re very easy to match with any colour: blue, yellow, green, red, purple, pink, beige, white, black… You must be already imagining them with the clothes that you have in your wardrobe, right?
In this part, you’ll see one of the most requested models from Xuz this year. Honestly, as soon as it appeared, everyone wanted a pair for themselves. And what does this model have that’s so special? Fringes, of course! And also other touches that are easy to identify with this brand. Do you want to see which one it is or have you already guessed?
You must be thinking: Wait, didn’t I just mention one? Well, yes, but if you look closely at the two photos, you’ll be able to see that both are practically identical, with the exception of two factors. The first ankle boots are made of dark brown suede, while the others are made of smooth honey leather, and the first ones have a rubber sole, contrarily to the others that have the already traditional wooden sole from Xuz.
The Fringes Medals Brown ankle boots, in many aspects, are similar to the Black By Xuz that we showed you on a previous post about the new collection 2015 / 2016. In addition of their fringes, these shoes have other details, such as the embroidering on the front, made with thread in the same colour as the suede, and the medals. These medals are in a metallic colour that truly stands out on this dark background.
On the other hand, the Fringes Medals Honey ankle boots also have the same medals and embroidered drawing, but this last one is in beige that stands out on this honey leather. And what is honey colour exactly? Well, it’s a mid-shade of brown with a slight touch of mustard yellow. It’s a fantastic colour that looks especially great, for example, with shades of beige, green, red and dark blue.
Are you already thinking of joining this trend? Which brand do you prefer? Do you choose the youthful and irreverent style of MTNG or the more classic and traditional one from Xuz? No matter what you decide, we’re sure that you’ll look fabulous and fashionable with your new ankle boots with fringes!
