Loafers, oxford-styles and other tasselled shoes are becoming an increasingly popular style of shoe. Thanks in part to a surge in preppy and conservative styles of dressing. A common design detail of these shoes is the tassel. These days, an abundance of shoes feature tassel accents, incorporated in a range of designs.

These tasselled shoes take the loafer trend to the next level, quite literally! The high crepe heel adds to the appearance of a more sophisticated shoe. The navy suede is a material that you wouldn’t normally expect, but one that works quite well with the overall design. These would work great with a range of more polished outfits. Think shift dresses and cardigans or high waisted skirts and blazers.

I’m fairly confident that these shoes will not be to everyone’s tastes. Personally, I can’t take my eyes off of them. Something about the design is so compelling. The combination of white, black and peach leather is quite complimentary. These tasseled shoes combine the oxford and ankle boot trends to create something quite unique.

These are definitely a more modern and trend-based interpretation of the tasselled shoe. These platform heels are equal parts feminine, preppy, and edgy - if that’s possible in a shoe.
