TOPSHELF ITEM OF THE DAY: ALDO SHOES ” BIRCHELL” STRAPPY SANDALS
You could kind of say I have serious shoe obsession. I thought it was jus fashion in general but I realize shoes are my weakness. I wake up looking for shoe-spiration everyday. This morning as I was trolling instagram I my heart skipped a beat when I landed on the instagram page of my Fashion Blogger Bestie In My Head @DopeLittleWhiteGirl (her blog is amaze-balls). She posted these flirty ultra femme strappy sandals from Aldo Shoes…BIRCHELL!
Come to find out the Birchell are part of a collaboration Aldo Shoes are doing with Designer Misha NoNoo. The Misha Nonoo & Aldo Rise SS15 Collection exudes a trio of qualities for the woman who dares to be impossibly chic, effortlessly composed, and calmly confident.
Well I don’t know if I fit the bill of those three qualities but I will take the title of a sophisticated urbanite cause shoes are IT! I generally stay away from sandals with a lots of traps that I have to lace up and tie but these are just calling my name. They have an ankle to toe strap detail that lends to the complete chaos of the shoe. Standing 4.5 inches tall with full leather lining and an almond toe these shoes can be dressed up, down, and sideways.
If you’re not a fan of white shoes fret not! The Birchell comes in ivory, orchid and navy. A hue for every kind of woman imaginable. Or for someone like me who has to have all 3! The best thing of is that they are not super expensive. The ultra playful sandal retails for $160. For $160 these are an investment so if I were you I’d grab myself a pair now before they’re all gone.
If you want to see different outfit sets surrounded by the Birchell let me know on under my instagram (@iamsummerterry) post on this article with the #StyleBirchell.
Happy Shopping TopshelfDivas!
