For many women, shoes are their guilty pleasure. They dream about shoes, save up for them and when they finally get the pair they’ve wanted so badly, they feel like the happiest people in the world.
对于许多女性来说,鞋子是她们负罪的快乐。她们梦想着拥有各式各样的鞋子,并不遗余力地攒钱购买。当最终得到了梦寐以求的鞋子时,她们便会觉得自己是世上最幸福的人。
Now, summer is here and shorts and miniskirts mean that your shoes are no longer overshadowed by long pants and coats.
如今夏天到了,短裤和迷你裙意味着你的鞋子不会再因为长裤和外套的遮挡而黯然失色了。
So, pack away your Uggs and take advantage of some of the sandal-based trends and styles for summer.
所以,收起你的Ugg雪地靴吧,一起来借鉴一些今夏凉鞋的流行趋势与风格吧。
Heeled wedges and espadrilles
坡跟帆布凉鞋
The wedged-heel shoe is still on trend for this summer. Whether a small 5cm heel or a sky-high 15cm platform, the rope-lined heel of an espadrille provides a chic1, but still casual look that makes this shoe the perfect complement2 to any summer outfit3. And heeled espadrilles even look great with shorts.
坡跟鞋仍然是今夏的流行趋势。无论5厘米的小高跟或15厘米的恨天高坡跟,采用系带式后跟的帆布凉鞋外观看起来时髦又休闲,是任何搭配任何夏装的完美单品。坡跟凉鞋搭配短裤看起来效果也很棒。
Structured sandals
有平衡构造的凉鞋
Gladiator sandals have been in style for a couple of seasons now, but there was always one big problem with them: not enough support. Strappy sandals can often leave you in a lurch5 when the delicate strap4 pops off.
尽管罗马鞋已经风行好几季了,但这种鞋一直以来都存在一个大问题:没有足够的支撑。一旦精致的皮带松开后,这种系带凉鞋往往会令你东倒西歪。
But this season, we’re seeing a little more structure in the heels of the summer sandals.
但是本季,我们看到凉鞋的后跟中增添了一些有助平衡的设计构造。
Braided sandals, or sandals with buckles6 have appeared in several top designer collections. Bright colors and unusual ways of braiding make these incredibly hot for the season.
系带凉鞋或带扣凉鞋已出现在多个顶级设计师的系列作品之中了。明亮的颜色以及不同寻常的编结方式都使其成为今夏的热宠。
Super mega platforms
超级厚底凉鞋
Generally speaking, such platforms aren’t exactly in Lady Gaga’s style but they do look weird7. However, they are comfortable to wear despite their appearance. So, the platforms can be worn as day-to-night sandals.
一般来说,尽管这样的厚底并不完全是Lady Gaga的风格,但它们看上去的确十分古怪。而不管外表如何,它们穿起来却很舒适。所以,厚底凉鞋可以从早穿到晚。
When you’re on the go during the summer, you may not have time to slip home or to your dormitory between a day at the mall and a night at a club.
夏季,当你白天在商城血拼,晚上现身夜店,忙个不停时,你或许根本没空中途溜回家或宿舍。
But with a great multipurpose sandal like this, your shoes will be ready for anything.
但有了这样一双多用途的凉鞋,你可以随时应对任何状况。
亮色尖头凉鞋
Those who like to wear high heels, take rounded toes off the list for this season. This summer, we see the change towards pointed toes that are much sexier and more feminine.
对于那些喜欢穿高跟鞋的人而言,就要将圆头鞋从本季的穿着名单中剔除了。我们看到今夏已成为尖头鞋的天下,它们看上去更性感、更有女人味。
And, just like this season’s trend for clothes with bright and bold colors, colorful sandals are also in style.
同时,就像此季风行色彩明亮大胆的服饰一样,五彩炫丽的凉鞋也成为大热的时尚。
Even if you wear simple and light outfits9, a pair of sandals with bright colors can make you stand out and demonstrate an attitude.
即使你一身简单轻快的装束,一双亮色鞋也会使你脱颖而出,展现出你的自我态度。
