Why it's worth it
A flip-flop that can go to dinner.
The Edit
Patent leather thong mule on a 50mm sculpted kitten heel with a slight reverse curve — the kind of heel that reads delicate but plants firmly. Squared footbed, single slim toe post, and a high-gloss burgundy finish with no hardware, no buckle, nothing to interrupt the line.
Is now a good time?
