Dressing well comes with a small catch.
Quite often, it means choosing shoes that, two hours later, you already cannot wait to take off.
The Batilas Mary Janes Odette are not like that.
They have that ballet-inspired look, with crossed ribbons that can completely change an outfit. But underneath, you still get a 6 mm sole, zero drop and room for your toes instead of squeezing them together.
So yes, you can look great without spending the whole afternoon thinking about the moment you get home and finally take your shoes off.
Sounds like a small thing. Until you try the alternative.
