The trend of the spring season is a no-brainer, and it’s already here. Well, the “ballet flat” has been in fashion for a couple years now, but as the dominant new trend, this year’s it.

The Lady Kyunghyang heralded the trend some time ago, and FMS has been confirming what most women already know – this is the “it” shoe right now:

아찔한 하이힐과 플랫폼 슈즈가 대세라고 해도 지난해부터 이어진 플랫슈즈의 인기는 여전하다. 이번 시즌엔 메탈릭한 소재, 반짝이는 스팽글 장식, 다채로운 프린트 등으로 화려해진 것이 특징.

If you’re not on the bandwagon, then you had better start chasing it; in other words, flats are in.

And on top of that, the metallic trend of the last season has merged into the color scheme – lots of shiny, metallic, and sparkly stuff is in store this spring.

Toes are more rounded, cuter. Pointy and flat is not the in thing, although there are some who try to hold the line.

Umm, no. Not working for me. But for the most part, cute and rounded is the way to go.

This one’s great, no? Love the shoes, love the matching, love the “subtle.” Tasteful and cute.

Vintage – not my cup of tea, but I respect the style. Old school laces and casual, with a little shimmer. Nice.
