31 Shoes in 31 Days: Day 15

Shoes have always been a cornerstone of my wardrobe, they’re part of my signature style. As the world starts to open up and we venture out again, I’m sharing a sneak peek into some of my collection, and the story each pair has to tell.

A sequined skirt. Huge statement earrings. The sleekest clutch. Each of us has those extra special pieces in our closet that we pull out for special occasions, occasions both real and aspirational.

But what if we wore our special occasion pieces on regular occasions? That’s the approach I take with these sparkly beauties from & Other Stories.

On their own, they look like something saved for the specialist of occasions, paired with a dress or tuxedo for a night on the town. I love to pull these out for daytime with more modest and masculine clothes – a midi-length long-sleeved dress, a pair of floor-length wide-legged trousers – and always with a thin black sock. The socks provide the extra coverage needed to keep things looking fresh for daytime, and they make the shoes way easier to walk in as well.

Just like they used to say, why save the good china for only special occasions? Why save the fabulous accessories only for a night out? It’s all about celebrating something special every day.
