And since I know someone will ask, let me beat you to the punch. I would probably not wear tights with these shoes. Instead, I would wear sheer nude hose from Donna Karan or micro-fishnets. I think black is too harsh, and even dark grey would be a bit jarring. Navy might be the old shade that I think would work if paired with a navy skirt.
Belle, I really like the Cole Haan pumps…and of course the Louboutin’s…but, quite frankly, I think the red sole is a little inappropriate for work. Two reasons: a) everyone now knows you spent $700+ on shoes; and b) it just seems a little too sexy. Thoughts??
I own those Chelsea Pumps in three colors (and purchasing them in black soon). They are so so so so comfortable I can’t even tell you. Highly recommend!
I have those Chelsea Pumps too (and one pair in gray). I wear them a lot with navy and black (when I want a little pop of color.
What about burgundy tights? To follow the 2+2 rule 🙂
I’m only buying pointed toes…..and, yes, there are comfy ones out there. So over rounded toes.
I’m kind of gravitating that way myself. Saving my round toes for casual wear.
Each season, I always check out the newest Stuart Weitzman shoes
and boots and either pick up a few of them or downgrade with their styles in mind. It’s never failed me.
Love your blog, Belle. So many great ideas!
