Daily Obsession: Kiltie Shoes

One of my favorite looks right now is what I refer to as nouveau preppy: standard preppy items/looks (argyle, pearls, cardigans, etc) with some sort of perverse angle. And what could be more preppy than kiltie shoes?

$100 and Under

A black contrast lace running through these Topshop white loafers is a nice finishing touch. $80

These BCBGirls patent oxford heels pair a fringed kiltie with a peep toe and laced ribbon details. $60.47 (orig. $109.95)

These brown suede pumps are perfectly work appropriate but far from boring. $79.95

The Mid-Rangers

These Pour La Victoire Fiona heels show that chunky isn’t always a bad thing. $110 (orig. $275)

A basic flat sandal with flair, like this Matisse thong, is a must-have wardrobe staple. $107.95

An unexpected placement of the kiltie gives these Dani Black sandals a playful twist. $165
