In My Closet: Maison Martin Margiela Funky Two-toned shoes

November 8, 2011
Funky or fashionable?Do you (or is it just me) look at your closet and think hmm… ย I bought my first pair of Maison Martin Margiela shoes online a few months ago. I knew they were edgy, possibly edgier than items I usually wear. I started second guessing myself when I received them because the patent was brighter/more gradient than I initially envisioned. But I still appreciate the almost architectural detail of the leather and the unique pseudo-mesh side. These are definitely statement shoes! ย I am still struggling with what could be paired with these shoes – a classic LBD, a white dress, or a simple set of separates (let the shoes shine right?)

Either way, I still want to work these shoes into my wardrobe because sometimes it is nice to go outside the lines just a little bit.

So how do you think I can wear these shoes?

little luxury list

    LOVE THEM! ‘Different’ is a good thing. I like that they have a bintage appeal but you can also style them in different ways.

    They are shaped perfectly! I can tell they are extremely feminine when they are put on!

    ๐Ÿ™‚ glad i was able to see them!

    Love them!

    I think these would look great with a neutral-colored dress (camel, gray or black). I like them!

  • Heather November 8, 2011 at 15:31

    Funky style — I like it! I agree with Kim that they would pair well with a black or grey dress.

  • Dancing Branflake November 8, 2011 at 16:36

    Wow oh wow! Those are a piece of art! I would have to buy a few dresses just to wear them. So beautiful!

  • Johanna November 8, 2011 at 17:15

    Wow…those are cool. I agree with Kim…a camel or black dress…very minimal. Let the shoes be the center of attention!

  • abeautifullife.ca November 8, 2011 at 17:16

    they look like the perfect shoes for an art gallery opening or something like that. So artistic. I second wearing them with neutrals – black, cream, white, or grey.

  • navy and orange November 8, 2011 at 17:30

    great find.

    These are adorably unusual! I love them! But you’re right, it would be tricky to pair them with an outfit. I would stick with solid colors (LBD or white/neutral dress) because you’re right, these shoes are definitely a statement piece and need to be center of attention! Good luck! I can’t wait to hear (or see) what you come up with! xoxo

  • Krystal November 8, 2011 at 21:19

    those are pretty cool!! hope you are feeling better ๐Ÿ™

  • MizzJ November 8, 2011 at 22:22

    Those are beautiful! I think you could wear them a lot of ways. Casually, with a pair of crisp, cropped trousers, and in the evening with a simple cream shift and belt.

  • Islandia Lane November 8, 2011 at 22:28

    oooh love those shoes! and I often second guess things in my wardrobe, you’re not the only one ๐Ÿ˜‰

  • The Blonde Duck November 9, 2011 at 01:14

    With a black dress!

  • Midtown Girl November 9, 2011 at 01:49

  • Kimberlee November 12, 2011 at 18:55

    Oooh those look awesome! Wish I could see them on. I’d maybe wear them with black capri trousers that hit above the ankle to show off the shoes ๐Ÿ™‚

  • […] for one bodysuit). ย I already knew the design house had funky styles when I got my first pair of shoes from the brand; my shoes are two-toned, edgy, and very unusual. But that is also why I am so […]
