As much as I love the bright yellow Tory Burch dress Hilary Swank is wearing in this photo, I have to admit that my eyes went right to her shoes:

These shoes are also by Tory Burch, and are the ‘Tarlen’ rope wedges. I’m not quite sure what to make of them, to be honest. I always appreciate a shoe that’s a little different from all the rest, and these definitely fall into that category: the rope also gives them a vaguely nautical feel, which is almost always guaranteed to win my affection. But, I don’t know, there’s something standing in the way of my unreserved love for them, and no, it’s not the $295 price tag. (Although that too, obviously.)

Tory Burch pink ‘Wrap Up’ sandals

tory burch wrap up sandals Tory Burch pink Wrap Up sandalsI have a shocking confession to make. You may want to sit down before I say it.

Are you sitting down? OK, here goes…

I’ve never really “got” the appeal of Tory Burch’s famous flats.

I know people rave about them. I know they always seem to be spoken about as a “shoe staple”.  And they’re possibly the most comfortable shoes in all the world, for all I know. But I just don’t get them. Don’t get me wrong: I don’t hate them. They’re totally inoffensive to look at, but that’s all they are as far as I can see, so I’ve never quite understood why so many people seem to love them.

These shoes, on the other hand? These I can totally understand. Sure, they’re so pink you might need sunglasses to wear them, and those ankle ties will have lots of you shouting “Cankles! Cankles!” at the screen right this very second, but still, I’d take them over the flats any day. Anyone else? If so, they’re £295 at Net-a-Porter.
