Ever since I saw the debut of Issa’s amazing collaboration with Banana Republic, I was intrigued by the Zebra striped kimono dress – even more so once I saw it in this picture – and with these beautiful shoes! Once it sold out, well… I was even more certain I wanted one!

I really love the idea of slipper shoes, and this version with high heels just knocked me for six. I still haven’t found a simple pair of black velvet slipper shoes at a price I like, with the heel height I’m after, but in the meantime, I’ve found some interesting options online…
