The Flattering (and Under-$40) Shoes Everyone Will Wear This Spring
If history is any indication of how things will play out, then I can tell you that our latest Who What Wear collection vinyl mules won’t be here for long. How do I know? Well, last year when we had a similar shoe drop (remember these guys?), I, of course, bought them and told all my friends, sisters, and readers to buy them too. But, well beyond my little bubble, they were a mega-hit. In fact, I still wear mine (when the weather allows, of course) and am constantly seeing others including my friends, co-workers, and complete strangers wearing theirs on Instagram, too (one example: here).
What does the future of the new Danielle Vinyl Heeled Mules hold? Seeing as they’re an update on the old version that now comes in two color options (one of which gives you that coveted naked shoe effect), I’m pretty much just waiting for them to sell out—but not without buying one of each color first. After all, they’re the perfect spring and summer sandals that are comfortable and flattering (thank you, block heel) and go with literally everything. To see how girls are already styling the shoes, and, of course, to shop them before they’re gone, just keep scrolling.
