Check out these heels from Fendi. I found these over at Neiman Marcus, simply waiting for pre-fall shoppers to whisk them away from the shelf. Aren’t they gorgeous?

Both look like dark blue denim from a distance. And me being quite the sucker for dark denim, I just had to look closer, especially since I was already quite taken with the rich brown leather trim. Realizing they are made of felt made them even more interesting.

What do you think? So casual chic, right?

Don’t you just love how classic yet unconventional these T-straps look? I mean, check out the unique two-tone curved and stacked wooden platform. It’s a never-seen-before detail that makes these shoes really stand out. And look, even the stacked heel (5.25 in) is also multi-tonal.

While these Fendi Bronte stilettos will work with almost any kind of casual outfit, I think you can also wear them to work or even a date if you style them correctly. Sadly, both retail at about $1,000 so my chances of actually owning a pair are very close to zero.

Nonetheless, I can dream, right? And in my dream, I’d be strutting my stuff in these sandals. What about you, which of these T-straps would be in your fantasy? Or better yet, if you can afford a pair, which would you grab? The sandals or pumps?
