This year has played host to the most talked about Cannes Film Festival yet. From gorgeous gowns to celebrity relationships, the event has taken over our screens and magazines for weeks. Apart from showcasing what must be a world record number of fishtail dresses, there was a whole lot of style walking down the red carpet. So, which summer shoe trends took home the award for most popular this year.

Pretty Platforms

Sky-high platform shoes will never go out of fashion. They’re perfect for making our legs look longer and leaner, and instantly add glamour to any outfit. So it’s not surprise that some of the most stylish celebrities were spotted sporting their favourite platforms for the event. We saw the likes of Jade Pinkett-Smith and Diane Kruger wearing this trend to perfection, and you can achieve this look for less with these versatile lovelies from New Look.

Bold Beauties

Whether it’s dresses or shoes, it’s all about citrus bolds this summer. Yellows and limes are perfect for illuminating your skin tone and are great for the summer months. These beautiful and British celebrities (above: Freida Pinto and Karen Gillian) supported this trend and proved it is better to go bold, or go home. These ASOS sling backs incorporate cool blue with a lively lime, and are now reduced to £88.

These two trends swept the festival like wildfire and are sure to look just as fabulous on you as they do on our favourite celebs, so dare to try new styles and look red carpet worthy this summer.
