I’ve no idea how I missed these sandals when they first arrived at Net-a-Porter, but I’m very glad I’ve seen them now, because they’re just beautiful, aren’t they?

I’ve always been a big fan of shoes with “wave” like details on them (I know these don’t actually look like waves, due to the colour scheme, but I’m sure you know what I mean!). It’s such an easy way to turn an ordinary shoe into an extraordinary one, and it’s definitely worked in this case. The bright red heel just makes them even more perfect!

These are by Vionnet and they’re an ouch-worthy £575: click here to buy them.

This is a relatively straightforward sandal, but I still spent a long time looking at it on Net-a-Porter yesterday, trying to figure out what it was that made it stand it out to me so much. I think it’s that slightly “puffy” effect of the leather:

It’s quite an usual effect, and I’m not sure I like it: in fact, something about these heels makes me think of folds of skin and that’s… well, just not what I want my shoes to remind me of. I’m sure that’s just my over-active imagination at work there, though (Note to self: try drinking less coffee), so on a more positive note, I love the colours used on these. I grew up with the belief that you should never mix metallics, but these shoes, with their silver and gold mix, are a good example of why fashion “rules” were made to be broken, don’t you think?

These are $795 at Net-a-Porter: click here to buy them.
