Kurt Geiger for Autumn/Winter 2009

As the long hazy days of summer draw to a close, get ready to say goodbye to your girlie summer foot wardrobe for autumn! Wave farewell to your sweet feet clad in embellished flip flops and instead toughen up your toes this autumn/winter with a masculine treat from the masterful new collection from Kurt Geiger.

Masculine themed footwear is taking over the more traditional feminine boot this season. However, girls have no need to fear! You won’t have to trade your beloved heels in for some clod hopper, clumpy, unfeminine and bizarre creations. Kurt Geiger has revolutionised a multitude of traditional masculine styles with his trademark sexy signature style.

For example, take the Chelsea boot. They first sprung into the spotlight during the Victorian era as riding boots. They didn’t really reach their fashion heights until the 60s with the invasion of The Mods who really helped bring these boots to their glorious heyday. However, you won’t need to be rockin’ out to The Jam and The Who to wear Geiger’s latest fashion. Instead, they now have a killer chunky heel and are pretty damn sexy to boot!

Continuing on with the 60’s Mod vibe, say hello to the high heeled desert boot! Who would have thought it? An essential part of the Mod wardrobe, this style staple was worn with Levi jeans or an Italian suit. Instead, team yours with your skinnies, or a ditzy dress to put a tough stamp of approval on your girlie wardrobe this winter.

Why not sex up your winter wardrobe with the LBB! These patent lace-up Chelsea Boots complete with platform sole and skinny skyscraper pencil heels will give you that much desired glamorous edge, perfect for a night on the tiles! Team your fav LBD with your new LBB’s for a catwalk worthy, show stopping entrĂ©e!

For those dressed down days, slip your tootsies into something a little more comfortable: Worker boots are a hot look for autumn. Wear them as beaten as you like, who cares about scuffing? Pull up your hiking socks to keep your feet nice and toasty. Wear the tongue and laces hanging loose, or tie them up tight. Team with whatever you feel like. This easy relaxed look works with jeans, shorts, dresses… Go ahead be creative. Break the rules.

Dare to wear zips, studs and buckles all at the same time with the newest spin on biker boots. These low heel boots are the perfect festival wear, stylish yet protective from the elements. The epitome of laid back cool, everyone’s wearing these, from off duty celebrities, to models and rock stars. Wear with denim and a lot of black. Mix it up and wear in the most unexpected of places. Leggings, dresses, jeans. Jeans under dresses, whatever works for you…

Last, but by no means least, is the chunky heeled, cut out peep toe shoe boot! Complete with chunky heel and sole these little lace up beauties embrace all the key trends for winter, wrapped up in one perfect little package. Perfect for beautifully accessorising, those in-between, not quite dressed up, not quite dressed down outfits.

So whatever your winter shoe of choice, there’s something to choose from this season!
