Trend to Watch: Metal Tipped Toes

By Katherine Base, August 8th, 2012

Recently, while going out in the city, and even walking through department stores, I have been noticing this edgy trend that caught my eye. Toe cap shoes, or peek shoes, have been appearing everywhere featured in different colors, with various detailing. Whether black or white, suede or patent leather, or whether they have caps of metal, spike, or crystal- the look is retuning to 1950’s glamour. Below are a few styles of shoes I’ve recently seen that I fell in love with, check it out!
