Every Fashion Girl Will Be Searching for This Chanel Item in 2019
It’s our latest instalment of Fashion People Wear the Weirdest Things, and this week, it’s a good one. It might be freezing outside and Christmas might have been just a week ago, but the cool crowd have been adorning their feet with a pair of chunky black Chanel sandals. Sandals? In winter? That’s pretty groundbreaking.
Quilted, thick-strapped and very, um, orthopaedic-looking, Chanel has thrown the idea of the stiletto-clad fashion editor out of the window, and instead embraced this season’s favourite ugly-chic aesthetic.
As always, these tastemakers have pulled off the tricky trend with aplomb with a variety of enviable outfits. Sadly, the exact shoe is out of stock everywhere (we have the feeling they will come back due to their popularity in 2018), but there are plenty of similar styles to snap up.
So what’s the secret to making this curveball trend work? (If you’re daring enough to try it, that is.) It might surprise you to hear that they’re actually pretty versatile. With their minimalist silhouette and black colourway, you can essentially approach these the same way you would any pair of simple flat shoes.
Some individuals have flouted the age-old fashion taboo and gone to town with the socks-with-sandals look, whilst other brave souls have forgone socks but have made up for it with cosy tonal separates. To help you on your way, we’ve rounded up a few of our favourite sandals-in-winter outfit ideas and found the best Chanel alternatives to buy now.
