Why it's worth it

Gold beading on feathers on espresso leather — three decisions, one shoe.

The Edit

A square-toe kitten mule with a sculpted flared heel in espresso leather, finished with a full-vamp feather trim in warm amber-brown tones and scattered gold beading over a transparent base panel. The heel sits at approximately 2.5 inches with a clean taper and rubber cap. Leather insole and upper; feather trim means these are dry-clean-only territory.

Insider Tip

Feather trim is fragile — keep these out of crowded coat-check situations.
