My normal shoe size is 7.5 so I sized up here to an 8 which turned out to be a bit too big for me. It might have been better to size down to a 7. The annoying thing about shoes is that it’s hard to tell what the fit is like until you walkContinue reading “Anya Low Court Shoes”

Ballerines Carmen Cuir Velours (Carmen Ballerinas)
Size 7 / French Size 38. 79EUR. Size and fit are good – they run true to size. The suede makes it super comfortable and soft, definitely more than if it was just leather. However, the sole is thin. I debated adding some support to the bottom but decided not to. If I’m walking forContinue reading “Ballerines Carmen Cuir Velours (Carmen Ballerinas)”
Isabelle Clogs
I am a 7.5 and I got a size 38 and they fit perfectly. The length of my foot is just a hint over 24cm and I can fit both 37.5/38. Very comfy, can wear them all day and out walking with no issues. They look true to Sezane’s photos. I think they’re high qualityContinue reading “Isabelle Clogs”
Tanya Pointed Toe Bootie
Quality is amazing. I usually size up in ankle boots anyway, and these are perfect, for my standard rule I follow (true to size). Very comfortable. I highly recommend them. They are one of my favorites now.,,,
Isabelle Clogs
First of all, these are SO comfy. I’m a real estate agent and sometimes can walk up to 3 miles a day during showings. I’ve really struggled to find shoes that are both comfy and cute. These fit the bill! I’m a solid 8.5 in shoes. Sometimes even a 9. All of Sezane’s sizing infoContinue reading “Isabelle Clogs”
Paula Babies
They looked so precious online but I haven’t worn them as much as I thought I would. They’re not terribly flattering on me, but maybe a different color would be better. I’ve worn them I think twice now, there’s already a little bit of creasing. They’re not very comfortable for me, but I think IContinue reading “Paula Babies”
Esperanza Leather Point Toe Flats
Korean Size 240 (US Size 7). $117 (70% off from $389!). Bought mine on Outnet. I saw the product pic and I fell in love! I loved the design on the bottom (although it definitely does scuff once you start walking around in them!). Every woman needs a flat shiny point-toe and I knew thatContinue reading “Esperanza Leather Point Toe Flats”
Phoebe Mid Boots
They’re so different from anything else I have, but I inexplicably love them. They definitely have a wider ankle, so are super easy to put on. No struggle at all! I’m sort of in between a 6-6.5 (closer to 6.5) and chose a 6.5 and they fit perfect. I imagine they’re TTS, but would sizeContinue reading “Phoebe Mid Boots”
Blade Pump
Got the Size 40 (US 10). No longer available on their site but they have lots of different Blade options. Casadei is definitely one of those brands that are more about style rather than function. Case in point – these pumps are gorgeous to look at, they’re obviously fabulous, but they’re impossible to wear forContinue reading “Blade Pump”
MOA Black Nappa Flat
Size 38 (US 7.5) I bought these shoes after a couple of failed experiments purchasing emerging designer brands (see my review on ALLY Shoes and Margaux). I think in short, while these shoes are very design-forward and eye-catching, I think the quality could definitely be better. So first and foremost, the shoes are super comfy.Continue reading “MOA Black Nappa Flat”
Blade Patent Leather Slingback Pumps
I feel too formal when wearing classic pumps, so I’ve really been into the slingback trend. I’ve loved Saint Laurent’s Blade slingbacks (they have different styles, but all of them are characterised by a square pointed toe) for a few months, and decided to go for it. I tried on the silver mirrored version andContinue reading “Blade Patent Leather Slingback Pumps”
Penny Loafer
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”
