the study of leopard print d’orsay heels
29 Dec
Leopard print d’orsay* heels with sequin and lace embellishments, 4-inch heel and a peep-toe, by Steve Madden. I don’t know if I can explain in how many different ways I love and adore these shoes. I love the pony-hair animal print (not real pony hair, obviously), I love the sparkly bits, the peep toes…these are easily one of my all-time favorite pairs of shoes. I wore these lovelies for 15-hours straight, from work straight to a holiday party, and by the end of the night I was still trotting all over the place without any kind of foot pain. That, my friends, is the mark of a fabulous pair of heels.
*Vocabulary Lesson:
- A d’orsay (door-say) heel is cut away on the middle of the vamp from the toe-box to the heel so that the arch of the foot is exposed.
- The vamp is the center part of the shoe, the part that goes over/around your arch.
- Perhaps a bit more self-explanatory, the toe-box is the area where your toesies live.
Editors Note: Goodness, I never realized how many definitions it takes to explain something like this! Huzzah for the mini vocabulary lesson!
Fabulous to say the least. Love those!
