Starting a New Season From Scratch – a Gorgeous Pair of Loafers

August 11, 2017

While I’m still hanging out in Ireland, I’m sharing with you some of my favorite blog posts from the past. Today I think it’s worth making certain that, before the season changes, you have in hand a really good, high-quality pair of shoes for the months to come. If you’re in the Southern Hemisphere, this might certainly be a pair of sandals, but for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, I strongly suggest a beautiful pair of loafers. Look for beautiful quality, and exquisite construction…

This was Step 2 back in the original Starting From Scratch Wardrobe Building Exercise, 3 years ago, and I still believe it to be a great idea…

six pairs of classic black shoes

Black penny loafers – Cole Haan, pointed toe loafers – Kelsi Dagger Brooklyn, tasseled flats – Trotters, croc embossed loafers – Aravon , metal-trimmed loafers – Ferragamo, oxfords – KG Kurt Geiger

six pairs of classic brown shoes

Ballet flats – Frye, tassel loafers – The Flexx, penny loafers – Cole Haan, microfiber loafer – David Tate, croc-embossed loafers – Clarks, oxfords – Tod’s

These are the sort of purchase that will last you forever – choose wisely!

love,
Janice

    I just purchased a pair of driving loafers from Talbots – I have to say they are very comfortable!

    Good loafers will indeed last forever. I have a pair from Trotter that are at least ten years old and still going strong — they just need a polish now and then.
