Floral print shoes - so last season?

i start warming up to new silhouettes and trends about when they've run their course it seems.

I found a pair of floral print shoes. They remind me of some I believe Diana has.

They're slip ons and I love the print. I just wonder if they will be "so last year" when I wear them this spring.

I'm tempted to get them even if YLF confirms my hunch that they probably won't be the most fashion forward item in spring 2016. I am a pretty classic dresser and come on, they're a small floral print on a blue background, and they won't break the bank.

Anyway - tell me straight. In or out (like those silly magazine spreads)?

I'd like to see a photo, abc. I still like floral print shoes and don't think of them as - So Last Season. Infact, I saw them at quite a few stores this summer, including Topshop and H&M.

I say, if you like them, wear them!

(Full disclosure: I bought a pair of floral print brogues last year on clearance, and I intend to wear them in as many outfits as possible before they fall apart.)

I think it depends more on the shape of the shoe than the print, whether it will look in or out.

I vote the same as Mander.

UmmLila, they are sneaker slip ons with a white sole.

I think florals come around in some form every Spring and as for the slip on type shoe, thye still see to be selling well and even Halston had a pair recently on qvc recently.

I'm still wearing mine. And I saw they were still selling them (or a very similar print) at nordies a month or two ago. florals are more prevalent in spring so that might be why you're seeing them less now.

ETA: honestly I think the floral trend is always around in one form or another. Look at Ted baker - he does some floral print every year and it's always popular. I think it's the slip on sneaker style that will wane... But nevertheless I think you're safe for at least another season.
