Kitty kitty

Why do I love kitten heels so much?  Well, apart from the obvious very chic frenchy status; Audrey Hepburn; early to mid 60's vibe... they are so comfortable and very smart.

And then I saw Emmanuelle Alt during fashion week... need I say more!

Begone you horrid platform heels, ... and enter the slick, chic, and utterly ladylike kitten heel.  Sure a slim stiletto will catch my eye from time to time, but reality is, stiletto's are just 'dinner' shoes... you know the ones, teeter over to a dinner table, sit down and then take them off when no-one is watching.   But kitten heels... look cool with jeans, capris, pencil skirts, full skirts, under capes and trench coats, with a summery strappy dress and Raybans.  Add a slingback and ooh la la!

Yep, they win me over every-time!

Emmanuelle really sets the tone! Truth be told, I've never been a big fan of the kitten heels. It's either high heel or flat for me (never platforms). I've own just two pair of kitten-heel shoes in my entire life, but I find myself developing an interest in them lately. Those Jimmy Choo pumps are beautiful!
