raffia trend: nanette lepore

Originally uploaded by shoedish

It’s a very raffia kind of summer. You may remember this material making a peekaboo statement in last summers footwear trends, but this year it’s taking an even bolder step forward into the fashion forefront. Everything has a little bit o’ raffia in it. From purses and skirts to dresses and shoes, raffia is adding a little tropical punch to 2008s warm weather fashion. Poppy purses at Hollywould make way for pom pom heeled platforms at Armand Basi One and the raffia train doesn’t stop there. We’re going to see raffia on just about everything that designers can get their creative little hands on and there’s nothing wrong with that. Raffia-wear is good for animals and the environment! These ‘Bombshell’ wedges from Nanette Lepore are a fashion statement all themselves from the queen of cute herself. Available at Bluefly and on sale!!
