If you were to ask if I’m a heels or trainers kind of girl, I’ll always pick heels. Sure, I snapped up the New Balance 550 kicks as quickly as I could, but for me, heels always win. While my mule collection is getting quite excessive (they’ve taken over every cupboard in the lounge, too), I’m always on the lookout for new shoes to try out. And I am quite literally obsessed—along with the rest of Instagram–with one particular pair right now: slingbacks.
These are, of course, not anything new when it comes to the style. It’s a ’50s favourite worn by the likes of Marilyn Monroe in that skirt scene, and Coco Chanel put slingbacks on the map with the now-iconic two-tone pair.
