The Autumn/Winter 2015 Lagom collection comes of the London-based label Dear Frances. Designer Jane Frances is behind the chic items that boast femininity and evident urban flair at the same time.
Frances aims to cater to the modern, sophisticated woman in this set, and that is exactly what comes of the footwear line. Pointed toe boots delivered alongside nude ankle-length shoes and sleek slip-ons are suited to numerous busy, on-the-go environments.
Detailing is also central to Lagom. Slim buckles and slight cut outs add personality to each shoe. And while a handful of small additions are present, Frances has done so by way of a consistent color scheme seen in nude, black and dark cherry tones that run throughout this series.
