A pair of heels a season. Since I don’t wear much heels that’s all I really need, and all I really buy. This lovely pair by Isabel Marant has been on my wishlist since they first came out back in Fall 2010. They were only released for a season and then they disappeared until this re-release for Spring 2014. So of course when I saw them this season I knew I had to have them. I never expected them to go on sale, I was actually quite ready to take the plunge at full price (thing I never do for high heels) but somehow I saw them not selling online so I decided to wait. To my surprise they went on sale on almost every online retailer I know, which was pretty much fantastic, and there was still stock left in my size (first size to always sell out), which is even more of a surprise, so of course I am thrilled!
This type of phenomenon that has been happening a lot lately, the re-release of best-selling pieces that have now become classics to have them stay as permanent items pretty much sums up what my vision of fashion is: classic fashion. A piece that will remain timeless (all the opposite to trendy) is always a good investment.

Today I am wearing one of the classics above classics: the straight jeans. As time goes bye more and more styles are being introduced in jeans, and some become classics pretty soon, while others take more time to be accepted by everyone. Well this style of jeans has been around probably forever and is one of the most versatile you will find. They are not skinny, not wide, they have an average length and rise, they are as neutral as it gets. That is a great advantage when you don’t have the time to plan an outfit and need something that will transition easily from day into night, from casual to semi-formal, etc. Today I styled mine with heels but of course I could have done exactly the same outfit with flats or sneakers and it would have worked just as fine.
I’m wearing: Ray-Ban sunglasses, American Apparel shirt, The Kooples blazer, Gap jeans, Robert Clergerie heels and Chanel bag.
My newest shoes: Valentino tango pumps.
Those of you who follow me on Pinterest might know the love i’ve had for these shoes ever since they came out a year ago. I fell in love with this perfect pair of shoes at first sight. To me they are the most beautiful shoes ever made, let me tell you why: the heel is perfect in heigh and in it’s square shape, they are made of my favorite material for shoes ( patent ), and the detail that makes them so special: the ankle wrist. They were impossible to track down, not even in the Valentino boutiques, so I had to wait a whole year to finally get them, finally here they are!
Now I can only say good things about them, though I have only worn them once, they are so comfortable and of course the versatility of this type of shoes has no name, wear them forever with whatever. Now I am thinking of adding the higher heeled version to my very small high heel’s collection, I have yet to decide on the color.
