More Inappropriate Shoes

I love shoes, I really do but I am horrendous at buying them. All my shoes are either black or camel so I either have way too many pairs to choose from for an outfit or absolutely none. On top of that I am forever buying shoes that are near impossible to walk in. Last week I added another inappropriate pair to my collection; these Alexander Mcqueens but I absolutely love them, the heel is carved and they are just beautifully made, plus I am a little sentimental about them as they are from his last collection.

BUT I cant seem to get them to work with any outfit.


The beautiful carved heel


This is the pic that Net-A-Porter had of them styled which I think looks quite nice but I dont really have any graphic dresses and I think the print + elaborate shoes = a bit much.



Any other suggestions of how to wear these babies?

  1. Gorgeous shoes! I think they would look good with slouchy cargo pants, tee and blazer xx

  2. My suggestion would be to wear them carefully... they look primed to break an ankle. Aside from that, I'd say look for a nice retro dress.. circa 1940's or 50's. I know, that type of garb isn't exactly your thing, but it would be a great compliment to these shoes. Black with red belt, simple red clutch purse maybe?

  3. I would suggest tailored shorts in a neutral colour, a tucked in man style shirt, and black necklace that has a floral element

  4. Hey, nice blog!! i'm back rtacking through and getting my fix - didnt even realise there were digital print dresses out this year (that's how far behind i am) xD

    i know this is a little late but i think the shoes would go well with anything wheels & dollbaby (slightly burlesque yet rock chiquie!!)
