British Invasion: Our Favorite Fashion Trends From Across The Pond

The Oxford

Inspired by the half-boot with side slits that gained popularity at Oxford University in the 1800s, this stylish laced shoe, characterized by the eyelet tabs near the shoelace, are a chic alternative to ballet flats in the summer months. While the oxford traditionally came in color-blocked neutrals, give your oxfords a modern twist, a la British fashion icon Sienna Miller, and try an eye-catching neon or metallic.
