I've been seeing shoes like these on the feet of fashionista's for a while now, and it's not really much surprise why - just look at them, they're gorgeous. An elegant cross toe design, with a thin strap around the ankle and not much else, these scream chic, whilst the chunky heel also lends some level of practicality - and comfort, the most important thing, right? - to the whole ordeal. So easy to style, I'm pretty sure I could chuck these on with an outfit and they would go, instantly making an outfit seem much more elegant and refined. In fact, they've hardly removed themselves from my feet once in the last couple of weeks when I was doing work experience - and minus the tottering at the start, whilst I got used to wearing heels again, I can speak with authority when I say that they are the most comfortable heels ever. I maybe a little late to hop on the trend, but now that I have started, there are many more colours, including a gorgeous silver pair and a couple of pastels that I have my eye on. I picked up my pair from New Look, and they came in at £35 - update: unfortunately all sold out now - and although the price may be a little higher than that of others in there, the quality is lovely (real leather here folks!) and they are still considerably less than others such as the infamous Zara version.
What do you think of these? Are you a fan of shoes like this?
