Problem: I Can’t Walk In Heels

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011 - 6:08 am - Fashion Life

Im friends with Jessie Randall, the fashion brains behind the please-let-me-have-that shoe collection, Loeffler Randall.

Everytime I see her shoes on Net-a-Porter, I think sparkle dust starts pumping through my veins.

The problem is that Im always late, always running, and usually about five seconds from tripping in my heels.

(No, really I wore a pair of Miu Miu kitten heels during London Fashion Week and actually fell as The Sartorialist was taking my photo. Oh yeah, thats totally one for the scrapbook)

A few seasons ago, Jessie was even kind enough to invent The Faran Flat, a super-sexy, no-heeled shoe that let me zoom around Manhattan without risking my life (or at least whats left of my dignity).

This season, though, Jessie and her team upped the ante. They made me walk through their building all eight flights of it wearing various Loeffler Randall designs. Im not gonna lie I fell a lot. And there were even a few pairs that I couldnt wear without clutching someones hand for dear life. (Come to the NYLON office and Ill show you a couple bruises)

But we managed to find four pairs of heels actual, off-the-ground heels! that I could wear while marching up stairs, ladders, and even on a window ledge. Since I get a lot of Tweets a shocking amount really asking what heels you can wear if you actually want to walk, I figured you might want to see which ones didnt kill me.

See the whole adventure below xoxo faran
