Hot or Not? Kate Mara in Nicholas Kirkwood Swirl Platform Pumps

February 2, 2013 • By Andrea

We recently featured Kate Mara in a pair of Brian Atwood pumps here. The American Horror Story actress and Rooney Mara’s sister was spotted again, and this time, she was wearing a lovely pair of black-and-white Nicholas Kirkwood pumps with a whimsical swirl detail on the platform.

She paired her Kirkwoods with a flirty black drop waist dress and a simple, sleek hairstyle. On a scale from 1 to 10 on the understated but incredibly chic meter, I’d give Kate’s look here an 8. Her heels are amazing, so they get a 10, but she would have to wear red lips, an interesting hairstyle, or a bold cocktail ring to add a little extra “oomph” to her ensemble.

Check her out below; then, we’ll talk shoe details!

Kate’s boxy clutch finishes her look really well, and her fluttery drop waist dress is simple, chic, and slightly modern, which works with her interesting heels! We’re slightly obsessed with the mod combo of black and white for spring, and this shoe style works the combo oh so well!

We found Kate’s pumps and a slightly different (and more colorful) version below. Take a peek.
