The first days of spring come to us in the smell of rain and growing things, the “fee bee” patter of chickadee calls, the pale, warm sunshine. It is a season that sinks right down into our winter bones and infuses something warm and hopeful. Something vital.
We are celebrating the arrival of Spring— and the spirit of rejuvenation it brings— with some of our favorite new footwear trends. As always, our shoes are carefully selected to feel as good as they look, to put a real “spring” in your step. We hope your wardrobe blossoms!
1. Re-Boot
The Isabella bootie by Cobb Hill is lightweight with a lovely (and breathable) perforation design.
No need to pack away your booties for the season! The style will continue to adorn fashionable ankles everywhere Spring & Summer 2016, even inspiring a fuller-coverage look when it comes to sandals. Dressed up or casually paired with jeans, we love the year-round versatility of this new staple.
The Ainsley sling-back wedge by Cobb Hill is a trendy sandal option that provides more coverage.
The Intrepid peep-toe (available at our St. Cloud location) and the Coriander sling-back by Earth.

2. Elevated Style
The Acacia and the Ardisia flatforms by Naot (available at our Miracle Mile and Roseville locations).
Flatforms and platforms haven’t been this hot since the 90’s. Expect to see bold, chunky options make a huge comeback. Looks like sandals are going nowhere but up.
The Formentera platform sling-back by Bussola and the Yvla Perf platform wedge by Fly London.

3. White Out
The Gizeh by Birkenstock in Shiny Snake Cream
Crisp, clean, classic. The soles of shoes are taking a more purified approach this Spring, so expect to see white bottoms aplenty. Whether you prefer adding high-impact contrast with a dark or bright upper, or keeping things softer with a lighter color, this style can suit whatever’s in your wardrobe.
The Tangelo slip-on by Earth and the Mindy 570 wedge by Gabor.
