Ugh, this is a brand that was a total letdown. Full caveat – I bought two pairs of shoes: this penny loafer as well as their signature style, the Demi (see here). I was coming out of my work from home cocoon and needed some flats for my work commute. I was totally sucked inContinue reading “Penny Loafer”

Melissa Button 2 Boot
OK so I’ve had these boots for two years now – aka, PLENTY of time to break in. They look absolutely lovely once they’re on – gorgeous leather, incredibly comfortable, works with just about any item of clothing, and looks like a very classic, classy leather boot. Here’s the problem – the boot has noContinue reading “Melissa Button 2 Boot”
Patton Leather Tall Boots
I really love them. The heel is higher than I usually wear but I can wear them for an hour or two. The leather quality is amazing. There is no zip and I have pretty substantial calves but I can just pull them on. I haven’t worn them enough for them to get slouchy butContinue reading “Patton Leather Tall Boots”
Winnie Water-Resistant Leather Lug-Sole Chelsea Booties
Purchased for $315 (originally $450). I love these booties! They’re waterproof and they’re really all-weather boots. I wear them in snowy, slushy, rainy weather and I don’t worry about ruining them at all. In fact, even though they’re so stylish, they’ve become my “bad weather” shoes! Who would’ve thought… They run true to size –Continue reading “Winnie Water-Resistant Leather Lug-Sole Chelsea Booties”
Cloudfeel All-Day Ballet Flat
Purchased on December 2022; reviewed on February 2023. Background: All right, the background to this purchase was I had bought flats from three “emerging brands” – ALLY Shoes, Aeyde, and Margaux. The latter two are buzzy Instagram brands (I was constantly bombarded with ads) and I was very excited to be supporting small, indie designers,Continue reading “Cloudfeel All-Day Ballet Flat”
City Lug 95 Chelsea Boot
$229 (originally $650). Purchased on November 2022; reviewed on February 2023. TLDR: I’m obsessed. There are no words for these boots. I was on the look-out for Chelsea boots for MONTHS. Everything I saw was either too edgy or were priced at $800+ and it wasn’t enough of a must-have for me to cough upContinue reading “City Lug 95 Chelsea Boot”
Bossy Beige Leather Pump
Purchased on August 2022; reviewed on February 2023. T TLDR: I loved the concept behind the brand – comfortable heels that provide support and style. Post-pandemic (and post-children), my beloved 4″ stilettos that served me so well in my 20s heyday are now part of my closet decor. This was a brand that I reallyContinue reading “Bossy Beige Leather Pump”
