Mules, no not the pack animals, we are talking about the dainty shoes with the exposed heels. They are popping up everywhere for this summer. No longer a fringe trend, we see them from extreme high heels to loafer flat mules and everything in between. We have not seen the mules for a long time. Am I glad they are back? As with many fashion trends, it may take a while for your eye to get used to the look and the best way of wearing this item for your personal style. Some styles are easy to get used to for the eye but also in terms of practicality.
