High gloss continues to make a stylish impact. While black and red patent leather (both real and fake) were must-haves for winter, patent kicks it up a notch in colours for Spring. Designers continued to show patent accessories at Fall 2007 fashion weeks which makes me think that the trend is going to be around for at least a few more seasons. Invest in high-shine shoes while stocks are still available. This fab fad is not going fade!

Spring patent collections from Nordstrom, Macy’s and Zappos.com in both bold and sundrenched hues.
