Say Hello to Chanel's Latest It Shoe

Just as summer rolls around each year, a summer It shoe also arrives just in time to pack for vacation. This year, there is no doubt about the shoe we’re crowning as the ultimate It shoe of the season, and it belongs to none other than Chanel. A mule that is available in a variety of styles and colorways, the one thing it has in common is a PVC heel. Another? Fashion insiders who have quickly adopted the cool shoe into their wardrobes.

Need further proof? Ahead, I’m highlighting women from the fashion set who are already wearing the cult shoe and exactly how they’re styling it. If you’re wondering if now is a good time to buy, it is. Some of the colorways have already sold out, and the others are soon to follow. Go on to see why Chanel’s PVC mules are the It shoe for summer and act quickly before they’re gone.
