In January 2013, we featured Tamara Ecclestone in a pair of nude Louboutin pumps. Apparently, the British socialite loves the popular women’s shoe label.

Later the same month, Jay Rutland’s wife was spotted in another pair of hot Christian Louboutin pumps.

Leaving a classic Italian restaurant popular among celebrities, Tamara opted for a black pair of slingback platform pumps as opposed to nude peep-toes.

She wore the slingback heels with a body-hugging black mini dress and a black leather jacket. Her hair was styled almost exactly as before — down and wavy.

While I really like her look for a night out, I wish she’d add a pop of color in the form of a bright clutch or bold jewelry.

The same month, the daughter of Bernie Ecclestone met her husband Jay Rutland on a blind date arranged by friends.

“It was just meant to be drinks. My mum was in a restaurant nearby and was going to come to meet me afterward,” she explained to The Sun in an interview.

“But me and Jay were getting on so well, drinks turned into dinner and my mum turned up anyway. At first, she was quite frosty to Jay because she is so protective of me.”

“But she soon warmed up and we all went clubbing until 3 am. It was the most surreal first date and our first kiss was in front of mum.”

“It must have been nerve-racking for Jay. We’re not the easiest family to come into but he has fitted in so well.”

Tamara Ecclestone and Jay Rutland married in an extravagant wedding on the French Riviera in June 2013. They have two daughters, Sophia Ecclestone Rutland (2014) and Serena Ecclestone Rutland (2020).

Aren’t these patent slingbacks incredibly sexy and chic? Tamara’s exact style seems to be sold out everywhere online.

However, we found the following black suede slingback style at Mytheresa and Nordstrom:
