My Go-To Holiday Shoe

My Go-To Holiday Shoe

In my search for a pretty little heel, I had high hopes for The Row’s Coco mule. Simple, pretty, feminine and chic. Easy to dress up or down. It seemed like the perfect shoe. Sadly, the fit didn’t work for me.

Enter this very similar mule from Botkier I discovered while running through Bloomingdales. First, it is beyond comfortable, thanks to a padded insole. Second, the price at $138, is unbeatable.

Since purchasing them a couple of weeks ago, I’ve already worn them to a couple of events where I stood on my feet for several hours. These will be my go-to holiday shoe. After all, there’s nothing more stylish than comfort.

Apparently, I’m not the only one on to them. They’re selling fast. Quantities are best at Shopbop, and limited at Bloomingdales and Anthroplogie.

    Karima, as always I love your picks and have been searching for some velvet pants. However, I’ve been looking at pairs by Khaite (burgundy), Acne (tan and navy) and Raey (dark grey). Curious if you have purchased anything by Raey yet? Also as someone who lives in a cold climate, would love to hear your suggestions as to how to style cropped pants when a bare foot/ankle isn’t practical.

      Kim – those are all great options for velvet pants. I’ve purchased Raey jeans before and they fir true to size and were well made. That being said, personally I like the higher rise on the Acne and Khaite trousers. As for cropped trousers, I like a sock type boot that hugs the ankle and is tall enough to rest under the hem of the cropped pant. I’m also loving the look of a pretty sock with a beautiful shoe.

    Would you the shoe runs true to size? The review on Anthropologie says that they run small and she had to return them. They have my size but not up a half size so I am in a quandary. Thanks!

      I think the shoe runs large. I’m normally a 9/9.5 and got the 8.5. I have a narrow foot. I also like my heel as close to edge as possible in mules.

The vintage Patricia von Musulin earrings styled b The vintage Patricia von Musulin earrings styled by Roberto Johnson in this story from The Cut take me straight back to the 1980s. I'm sure we carried the exact pair at Lina Lee during my years employed at the Beverly Hills store. If I dig deep, I might still have them!​​​​​​​​

I can’t wait for warmer weather to wear easy sum I can’t wait for warmer weather to wear easy summer looks like this. This #ASCENO would be so simple to dress up or down with jewelry, flats or heels. And these #LOROPIANA brown sandals are fabulous classics. Both pieces would be the starting point for several outfits.

My must have summer accessories will always include stylish sunglasses. The @saltoptics x @amareesnewport frames are my current go-tos checking all the right boxes. Add my new petite Bottega bag and I’ll be good to go.

Meanwhile, I discovered the instagram account of @cauvarjao highlighting gorgeous properties in Brasil and Portugal like the home pictured here. So beautiful! Take a look!
