platform slippers


Boots: Jeffrey Campbell (LF) Also available on Solestruck! Bag: LF (clearance sale). Fedora: Trash and Vaudeville. Striped hoodie: Yesstyle.com. Remember the video I made wearing it --->here?. Striped jumper: H&M. Vintage necklace: Foley & Corinna.

Please don't try these boots on. You'll get sucked into the vortex of 'crap. I should not have tried these on.'
Ever since seeing preview pics of them in June, the seed was planted. The sales assistant said she wore hers all day. Hmm....sales pitch talk. After over an hour of me walking in them (I wore them right out of the shop), I realized she probably wasn't joking. They are slippers with heels attached and yes, they run true to size.
They come in a zillion colours (about 20?) but this sort of periwinkle denim-esq blue sold me.

  7. Jeez, the minute like thee minute I saw ur shoes, I got this funny feeling in the pit of my stomach that told me if I do nothing else today, I will find those shoes in CHICAGO. I'm probably going to have to take a break from this blog, I feel overwhelmed by the need to own these lol. And I absolutely LOVE the Tory Burch necklace from yesterday *sighs*

  10. NO! YOU-GOT-THEM! I-"HATE"-YOU!:P

    In solestruck, they don't have these boots on blue-navy. The most similar color is purple, and they're out of stock. Sigh, I'd love to be able to go to the LF store. I'll try to contact them and IMPLORE them to send me the boots to Spain....:(

    You're outfit is GREAT. I'd like to help you with the 5 favorite outfits, but now I don't have time (because I must study) and is SO DIFFICULT TO CHOOSE ONLY 5!!;)

    Muaaaaaa

  23. i was in lf last week and all i could do was think of you and rumi. the blue litas are my favourite too. i didn't try them on though, just for the reason you stated. i'd get sucked in and my guy would not be seen with me in those shoes, he's not a big fan of extreme platforms even though i'd probably be able to walk in them better them most of my shoes b/c they're so light. you wear them beautifully.

  33. Oh my! I kept looking at the pics and thinking, "are these blue??!!" Love them, especially in this blue color..dang you KAREN! I must have these in BLUE! I've been looking for a pair of blue boots. Have you seen the blue riding boot at Zara? They are VERY CUTE!!! Hmmm, now I'll have to choose which one to get first these or the Zara boots. Mind blowing decisions.

  38. I can't believe your striped cardigan isn't by Autumn Cashmere. I have the exact same cardigan (except mine doesn't have a hood) that I picked up on sale from Intermix a few weeks ago. I'm still in shock that it is by another brand. Ha!

    Oh, I'm probably the only person on earth who doesn't love those Jeffrey Campbell's. I think they have a most peculiar shape to them! Different strokes for different folks I guess.

  52. Everyone who's asked, they are very comfortable. Honestly. I was v suprised when I slipped them on.

  54. Love the Lita picture story you have here! JC shoes in general are slippers! I have a pair of wedges that I got from LF this season and they're more comfortable than some sneakers I own. Don't know how that's even possible!

    ReplyDelete
  55. Blue was definitely the right pick. I love it! And frankly, I cannot believe they are that comfy. I might have to investigate.

    Xox.

  60. I'm sooooo addicted to Jeffery Campbell shoes because of YOU, Karen!! I die for those blue ones...I love how they look from the front. I hate it when shoes are disappointing from the front angle. And that blue is fantastic. LOVE it with those socks and that dress BTW. So fab!

    ReplyDelete

  64. This whole look is hot! I know the shoes are supposed to be the focus but I'm stuck on the dress. I may have to make this before the week is up. The coat is a perfect addition to the whole ensemble.

    Thank you so much for posting SoleStruck as a shoe source Jeffrey Campbell shoes. I have been searching high and low looking for the Bjork booties and they have them. How freaking awesome!
