# Smells like…

Skirt: American Apparel (alternatives here & here).
Nirvana T.shirt: H&M Mens (get the look here & here).
Concealed Wedge Sneakers: Isabel Marant ‘Beckett’.
I’m not a big fan of sneakers/trainers that are actually high heels (if you want heels wear heels) but… for some reason I fricking LOVE these Marant’s! I think it’s because they are so big and juicy looking and because the wedge (which is very minimal) really is concealed. The concealed wedge is where I think a lot of the cheaper copies got it wrong 🙁
These seem to have sold out pretty much everywhere but I did manage to find them still available in gold over on the Net-a-Porter UK site: Here. Lucky for those of you that live there!
Below are some alternatives that I think are worth checking out…. Hello leopard!

   They're growing on me. Never thought I'd say that. Wasn't sure what I thought about them with shorts, before. But with a skirt? ADORE.

    I've been following for your blog for a while now and it's only just clicked that you're in Revenge! Anyway, LOVE the styling here. I agree that wedge sneakers need to have the wedge concealed or it doesn't look right, I often team mine with fitted bodycon mini skirts and loser tops too. Looks awesome! x

     Heeled trainers is a def NO NO but I do like these ones as you can't even see the wedge-well concealed indeed. Pairing yours with your outfit makes look tough (leather skirt) yet playful (trainers). The leopard ones are going on my wish list.

     Great look with the leather skirt and heeled high tops – I'm not normally a fan of sneakers either but theses are such a lovely red.

     Hi ashley! I was just wondering about your Michael Kors watch, do you know if it is one of the oversized or midsized watches? Thanks!

     I completely agree with your points! I usually hate the whole sneaker / heel fusion but IMarant does a fantastic job of concealing the wedge. It is that part indeed where many of the copies go wrong; however, Steve Madden and Target do a great job of concealing the minimal wedge.
