I’m no special snowflake–like a large chunk of the fashion world, I’m really into the d’Orsay shoe wear trend right now. The heels are pretty, but I’m especially charmed by the flats. I feel like that’s really representative of my style in general. Heels are fantastic and sexy, but I usually opt for looking “cute” rather than “sexy” and flats often make that style separation for me.
I read someone describe d’Orsays as bikinis for your feet and think that’s an adorable comparison! Haha, also really interesting to think about how it could be related to the crop top trend? Whatever it is, I dig it. Crop everything forever.
One of my old standby pairs of flats died of old age this year so I let myself go to Nordstrom Rack to pick out a replacement pair. I ended up agonizing over a pile of d’Orsay flats, trying to pick the perfect ones! I bought a neutral black/tan pair with an ankle strap (very similar to these) and have been pretty surprised at how polarizing they seem to be. They seem like such a safe choice to me (not that I totally understand what average people think is “safe” fashion haha), but people have not been shy about telling me that they do not like my shoes. I overheard a lady say “I hate her shoes” as I walked past her table after brunch one day. Haha, so weird! I didn’t think these guys looked weird enough to inspire such passionate dislike.
