Sometimes you just want to go for the classics, right? And few things are so clasically sexy as tight cropped pants, showing some dainty ankle and foot. Paired with a menswear shirt, this outfit evokes 50s rockabilly, but in a classic rather than kitschy way. No cherry prints and bandanas, but skinnies worn as cigarette pants and an oversized shirt with rolled up sleeves.

The shoes I'm wearing are a gracious gift from Lotus Shoes by the way! They are a perfect pair of basic heels, and the proportions of the heel height and the front platform are the perfect balance between elegant and comfortable. Lotus Shoes is a great destination if you, like me, have grown tired of most high street stores only offering either the flattest of ballet flats, or 10cm pumps. You usually have to check out more expensive brands to find mid height heels that don't look like they'd belong to your grandma, but Lotus Shoes has plenty of options if you're looking for an affordable pair of basic heels that you can actually wear to work or to a party without killing your back and feet. I can attest for their comfort level - these are definitely higher quality than your regular pair of New Look pumps.

I've been rediscovering heels lately - perhaps the pendulum swings back after a year of quasi-exclusively wearing sneakers and Birkenstocks? Either way, I've been enjoying the grown up elegance that always comes with wearing heels.
