Audra: Most of girls love our shoes but there is nothing in the world worst and splurging on a trend that will only last you one season. Don’t you hate that? Michelle Madohk is here. She’s the founder of shefinds.com. Michelle is here to really help all the ladies out there get the most out of your money with the hottest shoe trends, that here to stay at least for a while right Michelle? Michelle: Right. Audra: Just a little bit, maybe one others extra reason, right? So you guys scattered. Michelle: Yes, so at shefinds.com, we have about 20 shopaholics were scattered the web looking for the best finds. I mean put them together into collection, so you can find the best items for your fashion wear throb. Audra: And you got the knee heel boots, keep seeing them, keep hearing them but I thought Prince was the only one that can carry these things off. But what’s the big deal with this now? Michelle: So if you’re only going to splurge on one trend, it’s the knee high boot this season. This is the boots. If you want to be daring and sexy, you got a knee high boot then you can wear over skinny pants, over the short skirt but you can also wear in the office if you have a skirt that stops just above your knee or just— Audra: Just look at my face. Michelle: Yes/ Audra: How do you wear it down for the office? Michelle: Yeah, just wear a longer skirt so then you know they kind of like it’s the seamless thing up to the skirt. Audra: Okay. Michelle: But these are from Cynthia Vincent and they are $395.00. Audra: $395.00, okay. Michelle: And even better deal though, by Nicole this is toe leather. There is over the bib of boots that they’re like vegan boots, so animal has been harmed. Audra: Okay. Michelle: These are great deal. They’re $195.00 and what these are—the great thing about this is like even after the knee high boot thing is over, you can fold them over. Audra: Oh and one of the things that you always say to is don’t go crazy with the embellishments in the colors and things like, keep it pretty simple, right? Michelle: Right. That will help them last beyond the trend. Audra: Okay, you got it. Now, we’ve got the flats here too and they’re very comfortable this time around. Michelle: Yeah. Audra: And you can never go wrong with flats. Michelle: Ballet flats are usually popular every year. So this year, that we decide to punch it up a little bit and we finally Sam Edelman flats that are pointy and they come in some yummy fall colors like the purple, the pink and things are really spiced up your wear throb. Audra: Right. Michelle: And you can wear them you know like pants all the time. Audra: Okay, I like this. These are the ankle boots and do you think that these are going to be around for a couple seasons? Michelle: Yes, they’ve around for quite a while. These are fun. These are also from Cynthia Vincent. These have a nice high heel, great for going out. Again, if you want to wear your leggings and your little skirt, but also for the office, you just wear them with pants that come down below them. Audra: That’s what you say when the trend dies down, that’s what you can do just wearing with pants that fold below the ankle and then you’re good go, right? Michelle: Right. Audra: You don’t have to go out and spend more money, okay. And then the zippers too because sometimes zippers are in style, sometimes they are out. Last but not the least you’ve got the Mary Janes, the modern Mary Janes. Michelle: Yes, so a modern Mary Jane is not one of your childhoods that your mother puts you in but these are from fry. They have a nice high heel and they look to do with this is to wear a patterned or colored tights to go on and usually with the strap on and they’re very comfortable walking around in with those high heels. Audra: And they’re comfortable because the heel is chunky. It’s not a thin little heel which is dangerous sometime. Michelle: But it’s just a nice chunky heel. Audra: Yeah. We’re seeing those a lot too. Alright, thank you so much Michelle, good to see again.
