Ankle straps shoes have been everywhere lately, we saw them all over the runways, all over the streets of NYC and now we’re seeing them on us normal gals. Until recently for some reason I thought that shoes with an ankle strap would make my legs look shorter and my ankles look large. After further consideration, I found them to have the opposite effect, therefore in my mind, this means I need a pair in every color! Since I can’t afford that just yet… although I do have a birthday coming up.. wink*wink. I figured I would showcase some of my favorite ways that the ankle strap shoe has been worn. Are you a fan of this trend?
