{favorite things} Miu Miu Leopard Sandals


Since I haven't been taking new outfit photos lately I thought I would bring back an old blog series - Favorite Things - and feature some pieces I can't imagine living without.  These Miu Miu leopard sandals were one of my first designer splurges back in 2011. They were part of the Fall 2010 collection and I was low key obsessed for a while before I purchased them.

I first posted about them in October 2011 but had been in love since I saw them on Net-a-Porter at their full price of $795 - YIKES! Even before that blog post I had an eBay alert set up for months to find them. I finally found them in my size in November 2011 and splurged $400 (I think) on them. Still a crazy price to pay but every time I see them in my closet they bring me joy so I think it was worth it, even 9 years later.

They are brown and black leopard print calf hair sandals with a 6 inch heel and a 2 inch platform. Basically a dream for a short girl like me. I look SO TALL in them! Especially in super skinny jeans.  I used to wear them once a week when I was working in an office but since I started working from home in 2014 they've been more of an art piece in my closet brought out for special occasions.

  1. While there is absolutely no way that I would be able to walk in those shoes, I have long admired them on your blog - they really are stunning!

    1. Haha, they're actually not too bad to walk in because of the platform but yea, definitely a little harder these days since I'm not so sprightly!

  2. Well 9 years is amazing for a pair of shoes specially since these have held up so well.
    I just edited a pair of shoes that had less time in my closet but looked like it had been run over by a truck!
