Felt like the lace trend was everywhere and I wanted to get on the trend! I wasn't familiar with this brand but knew of Tamara Mellon. Ended up buying this flat on final sale​,​ only to realize a few weeks later that it looks like the brand shut down?? Anyways​,​ this shoe is gorgeous and I love the lace. I did notice that after a few weeks that the point toe was getting a little damaged so I don't think the lace is as sturdy as it should be. Having said that​,​ I'm glad that I didn't pay full price for it given that the shoe got damaged so easily... But for 80% off​,​ I still think it's a great deal. Not super supportive but I don't think I've had a designer shoe that's super supportive anyway. Very feminine and chic!
