D.S Pick of the Day: Diego Dolcini “Ayers” Art Deco Slingback Sandals




These sandals really take a modern approach to the art deco era. There is a lot going on in this shoe, but every detail fits together perfectly. The wooden and lucite wedge heel is architecturally stunning, and the grain in the wood looks beautiful against the orange/yellow coloring of the lucite. The wedge is a completely different dimension of the shoe, because when you look at the front, it is something entirely different. Mixed metals, which I am a huge fan of, encompass the front of the shoe. From gunmetal and gold, to a rich burgundy, the colors all work together fabulously, and really take a futuristic approach to art deco. The straps are all fun, and I love how off centered they are, as it is a fabulous contrast to the linear shapes in the wedge.

This shoe would be totally fabulous with pretty much anything, from skinny jeans to a cute little metallic dress to highlight the metallic in the heel. Either way, lots of mixed metal bangles are in order to complete this hot metallic look!
