Oxfords

oxford flats

A couple of years ago I had a pair of oxfords that I got at Nordstrom on a whim. They turned out to be one of my go to pairs of shoes throughout the mild, Arizona winter. I wore them so much they had to be retired and I’ve never found a pair to replace them.

 

Oxfords are a little outside of my comfort zone, but I’ve figured out how to make them work for me. Anything too chunky leans too much towards menswear and overpowers my petite frame. The options I’ve pulled together have a smaller heel. They may even look dainty! I’m leaning towards the grey pair. How great would they be with a funky pair of socks peeking through?!

 

What do you think about oxfords? Is this a trend you’ll skip?

      Yes, those are exactly the ones! I loved them and would definitely buy them again if they were still available. :)
