Beautiful Brogue

Let's talk footwear inspired by men. Brogues to be exact. The Brogue shoe has some history: it is a style of low-heeled shoe or boot traditionally characterised by multiple-piece, sturdy leather uppers with decorative perforations (or "broguing") and serration along the pieces' visible edges.

I love these shoes because they're functional, masculine, and preppy. Let's look at some options.

Nordstrom, Enzo Angiolini Cristin Oxford, $73

I love this red option. It's what Dorothy would have worn on a day-today basis. Pair these with bf jeans in the summer and black ponte leggings now.

Wallis, Pewter Lace Up Brogues, $35

These bad boys are half off and I am dying to pair them with an LBD now and a floral sundress later.

DSW, Wanted Babe Oxford, $39

I really like these with a pair of ankle pants. They are quite tailored.

Lord and Taylor, Steve Madden Deven Suede Brogue Oxfords, $62

And for something a bit different but still on major sale, these no lace beauties.

I really like the brogue trend because it injects some masculinity into your look but you can play off it and wear a big bow top or a very feminine necklace to balance it out.

Be fabulous today!
