Most of the brightly coloured shoes I show you here tend to have suede uppers, which are beautiful, but not exactly the most practical, especially if you find yourself dealing with wet weather on a regular basis.
It was refreshing, then, to see these B Brian Atwood slingbacks pop up at Shopbop then, with a croc-embossed leather upper, and in my very favourite shade. Now, I still wouldn’t recommend wearing these in the pouring rain, of course, but they should be at least a little more hard-wearing than suede, without compromising any of the impact of the colour.
I think the embossed upper creates a really interesting effect with these, don’t you?

I really like the color and the shape. But in the pictures they look so “cheap”. Like they are not well made. Maybe they’re better in real life.
I’m not a fan of the croc look. Don’t ask me why; there’s no good reason.
