Preview AW17: Ankle Boots
Let's start a new series of posts about what you will find in stores with the new season. The idea is to start a wish list and to know on time what you like before hits the shelves and look for your favourite new pair of shoes or bag or coat and have the chance to buy it in time before it is sold out. We start with Ankle Boots that for this season are huge and they can be worn everyday and everywhere making them an investment buy.
