Shoes are a staple in a woman's wardrobe. You can never have enough shoes! You need shoes for each season of the year; you need shoes for different occasions; you need shoes to wear around the house; and you need shoes for every outfit. And no matter what your weight, you can always find a pair of shoes to make you feel wonderful and chase away the blues!

But how do you know what shoes are "in"? For Summer 2005, to ensure you are wearing the most trendy shoe, you will want one of the following to be true:

Floral, Paisley, and Graphic Prints - From stripes to florals and everything in-between, patterns are "in".

Pastel Color Metallics - The hottest metallics are sherbert colors like pink, blue, or green.

Embellish, Embellish, Embellish - Be sure to include a 3-D flower, beads, sequins, or gem stones to liven up your sandles or even your tennis shoes.

Hot styles include wedge heels, espadrilles, ballet flats, stiletto heels, and earthy thongs. A personal favorite is the espadrille. There is nothing that says "summer time"like an espadrille shoes. You can get them in a natural color for your safari or wild colorful flowers for your cruise. So be sure to pick up a pair and have some fun!
