These booties mean business. The textural python combined with the thick heel makes this an interesting combination of luxury and practicality. The Lanvin Python Platform Bootie has edge without trying. The round toe softens this otherwise tough bootie and the heel is so wide it is almost a wedge which makes this a unique statement shoe that is completely, well, understated. Booties like these that don’t have a clear path that they are following can be mixed up and worn with many different looks. Wear them with a Michael Kors dress to work then pair them with some Jill Stuart bright pants and an Elizabeth and James tank for after work drinks with friends.

These booties are casual luxury at its best. Pick them up at Neiman Marcus for $1990.
