There are many moments when heels feel appropriate. Graduation and board meetings for instance. But, for tripping over cobblestones in Manhattan, we’re not convinced. However, this past weekend, Gigi Hadid, made a strong case that suggests otherwise.
If for five seconds, you can manage to take your eyes off the model’s baffling detachable booty short jeans from Y/Projects, you’ll see she’s tottering along in a pair of beige Aquazzura Heart Breaker Pumps. Back, in 2002, it was every fashion editor’s go-to, but after the dawn of high-end sneakers, we could see little point in suffering through the stabbing pain of stilettos. However, one glance, at Gigi and we’re reconsidering.
Maybe it’s because she’s wrapped the ankle ties of her heels over her jeans, or maybe it’s because it’s Gigi Hadid, but this is a 6pm shoe switch up we’re willing to try out. It’s a simple styling trick that just requires strappy shoes and straight leg jeans, but the impact is certainly eye-catching.
