We're all about pebbled leather and interesting textures on our shoes and accessories at the moment. Padding is coming back along with inclement weather, and the more texture and graininess the better. I don't know if it's a psychological reaction to cold and harsh winters that draws us towards thicker, fluffier textures, but one thing's for sure, they're going to be huge in every sense this winter.
These shoe-boots by Lanvin get the look just right, and I've blown them up big so you can see just how gorgeous their texture is. This criss-cross pattern creates the illusion of Chanel-style quilting, while the leather itself has a lovely pebbled surface. I love the way it travels all around the back of the heel, too. Ultimate winter boots anyone?
