The Find: Margaux Shoes

I have finally reached the point in life where I can buy the good shoes. You’ll still never catch me in a designer shoe — I’d rather put my money in my 401k — but a well-made, mid-price shoe is definitely on offer. Pick a classic style, and you’ll be wearing them well into your 50s.

Yes, that’s right, the next decade down the pike is 50. Deep breaths.

Earlier this spring, I bought a pair of Margaux shoes and shared them to my Instagram. The brand was kind enough to send me a second pair. And I have a feeling that these are going to be my semi-casual spring-summer shoes of choice for many years to come.

These woven Paz flats were the first pair I purchased. I chose the espresso color because I can wear it with black or with brown or with white. The modern vamp is cool now, but will still be chic in a few years. These shoes take one-to-two weekends to break in. Just apply some friction stick, and you’ll be golden. They come in narrow and wide widths.

I just bought these claret red, Ada patent leather kitten heels, and I wish I had them during session. They are so cute with a work dress or with trousers. They’re pretty and classic, and I just love them. I think they will be especially fetching with a white eyelet dress.

I love a cap-toe shoe. Margaux makes both a slingback and a closed heel flat in this style. While they have the basic black and tan combination, they also have some unique choices — tan and canvas, this rose combo. These are a great work shoe if you’re a person who needs maximum versatility in this price point.
