French Sole Suede Ballerina Flat (Lake) in Splatter of Colours
I would say that these are whimsical and fun looking suede flats. However, I wouldn’t go as far as describing them as a ladylike shoe. The splatter of red and white art design seen all over the shoe would look somehow amateurish but that’s part of the look French Sole is trying to create. Both inner and outer sole are both made of leather. They’re $229 from Barefoot Tess - not cheap. Also comes in black, available in US Size 10.5 to 13.
