I'm well aware that we talk about flat shoes a lot here onBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , but let's take a break from that and talk about a heel trend I've been spotting as of late. It's a walkable heel style (as in, not a stiletto or a platform), it's pretty, and two women with cool style just wore it: Alexa Chung and Michelle Monaghan.
The heel trend I'm referring to is ballet pumps with an oversize bow. They look like something you'd stumble across in a vintage shop (and immediately buy if you get lucky with the size). Recently, though, the trend has been brought back into the spotlight by the creative director who’s arguably the most inspired by vintage designers in the game: Alessandro Michele. Michele is currently the creative director at Valentino, and he designed several oversized-bow ballet pumps for the brand's current collection.
Chung happened to wear a slingback pair with baggy black pants while in Cannes, while Monaghan was photographed in NYC wearing her tan leather ballet pumps with a denim midi skirt and red tank. I think we can all agree that the vintage-y heels look equally cool with both outfits.
