I love that we no longer have to hide our platforms on our shoes, I mean the hidden platform styles are actually not so hidden so we were never really fooling anyone but ourselves! So, love it or leave it, platforms are front and center this season! The new exposed platform pump looked awkward to me when I first saw them but when you slip them on, they feel perfectly balanced. I tried a few pairs including YSL, but found the Elizabeth and James version the most suited for my foot. Elizabeth and James shoes are surprisingly well made and reasonably priced, try them on for size the next time you’re at Barneys Co-op!
Elizabeth and James Haircalf Platform Pumps for $395
The haircalf is what makes these unforgettable! I would love to own them.
