Happy Thursday everyone! It is throwback Thursday so I wanted to throw back today’s post to the basic. What does every girl need in their wardrobe? A great pair of classic black patent leather pumps. This is something that at one point in your life you will need and also will never go out of style. I got these amazing black patent pumps back in college! Yes, I have had these bad boys since Fall of 2010. They are from Steve Madden and are probably the comfiest pair of heels I have ever owned. The reason why I first fell in love with these shoes was because in college my mom knew I would be going out a lot with friends and didn’t want me to spend a ton of money on shoes that I would ruin walking around Arizona. I also love how they have a platform in the front of the shoe, but you can’t tell because of the way the shoe is made. Most of the platform patent leather pumps, show the platform part by how the front of the shoe is cut. This one does not show and it is a solid black patent. Now, since I am no longer in college, I have a more expensive pair of black patent heels for fancier occasions, but when I want to go out to the bars in NYC these are my go to shoes. If you are in the market for a black patent shoe there are a few things you should look for. The first thing is to make sure that the heel isn’t too high for you because if this is something that you would potentially wear to work you want to make sure it is appropriate for the office. Second, make sure that it is a solid patent with no buckles or anything on it. I had a friend in college who got a great pair of black patent heels but they had a gold buckle on them and that made it harder for her to match it with outfits and also made them look less expensive than what they actually were. The amount of people that have asked me if my shoes were Stuart Weitzman or YSL is crazy! . When I tell them they are Steve Madden their mouths drop in disbelief. Check out these amazing black patent leather heels on Steve Madden right now and check out all of their latest shoes. I know you’ll love them as much as I love mine <3
