As you may have noticed from my photo of my shoe collection last month, I currently own just two pairs of flats, not counting a few additional pairs that are so worn out they’re only fit for walking the dog and mowing the lawn in. One of my shoe aims for this year, then, is to invest in a couple of pairs of nice flats, for those days when heels aren’t appropriate (it does happen sometimes), and I thought a pale pink/nude pair could be a good choice, as they’d go with everything.
These ones by Jimmy Choo totally fit my requirements: the colour is perfect, the uppers come accessorized with a couple of pretty little flowers, which make them slightly more interesting than most ballet flats, and I’ve no doubt the leather is as soft and supple as I could wish for. One problem, of course: they’re £250. My search for new ballet flats continues. If yours ends right here, however, you can click here to buy a pair from Net-a-Porter.
These are lovely, but the price :(…
I’m on a nude flat hunt third year in a row, so I’d like should share the latest find: Dune Dian Flat in Champagne colour I got yesterday from javari. They are, of course, nothing compared to the designer delight above, but a bow and 33 pounds spoke quite loudly to me. In reality they are even nicer than on the picture – very sort, not as shiny and very-very comfortable.
I saw these in the shop last week, and immediately wanted to buy them. You’re right, the leather is soft as butter!
I WAS looking for a new pair of flats for summer/spring, too, but my search ended – luckily – just a few days ago. I found lovely ballet flats at Next, which are nude with a bow in the front. And they are still sold on Next’s website 🙂
These shoes are beautiful and I am seconds away from buying on net-a-porter, just need to check width. If you want a slightly dressier pair of flats, I strongly recommend Ferragamo Fun Flats. I own 4 pairs in different colours. So chic!
