There's a new footwear trend lighting up the streets of London, and its appeal is hard to ignore. All around us, fashion people are retiring their beloved black ballet flats for shimmering silver styles. Now, while we're not quite ready for holiday party dressing, this turn towards tinsel-esque and frosty metallics certainly is the cool-weather shake-up we're looking for at this time of year.
With a light-catching quality, the emerging silver flat-shoe trend imparts the brightness that the sun generally lacks at this time of year and offers a new way to add some dimension to minimalist outfits without having to layer in bright colours.
Silver really started to take hold when the silver trouser trend caught our attention at the end of last year. Now, we're witnessing an offshoot in footwear form, and I'd argue that the metallic has become even more wearable because of this. While gold flats have certainly had their moment in the sun this summertime, I'm reminded by the silver flip flops and silver trainers—including the ones worn by Kendall Jenner—that a chic silver flats shoe really knows no bounds.
What is the Silver Flat Shoe Trend?
Masquerading as a statement shoe, the silver flat shoe trend is Wholesale Replica Bag footwear style to dominate off-duty wardrobes. The tinny style is actually far more wearable than it might appear. Not a far cry from the grey and white tones we've been styling for decades, this upgrade pairs just as well with the black, beige and denim tones that typically saturate our wardrobes.
Looking to give my outfits a timely winter refresh, I'm backing silver flats to get me through the festive season in comfort and style, and luckily for me, there are ample shopping options available. From Reformation's pretty take on a classic ballet flat to Mango's mesh iteration, read on to discover our edit of the best silver flat shoes.
