This Is My Orthopedic Party Shoe

WHAT: Nisolo Luna Heeled Mary Jane*

WHY: Something happened to us when we turned 42.

No matter how striking we wanted to look when we left the house, we would no longer ever, ever reach for our pointy, painful heels.

We just couldn’t do it. No more. Finito!

And since then, we have been on a kind of Holmesian hunt for gorgeous heels that are pretty much … well … orthopedic.

Obviously we dragged you here because we found such heels. They’re classic, they’re elegant, and we didn’t realize this when we decided to write about them, but they happen to be 75% off right now! 🥳🥳

Okay, we’ll give you one look before we get into why they’re so magical:

That’s right! It’s a Mary Jane - the epitome of a party shoe, the star of everything from the glittery Gatsby era to the swing-dancing 50s to the knee-socked 90s and now to the “quiet luxury” 2020s. Ok, you’ve listened to us drivel. Here are a few more pictures:

They’re called the Luna and they’re from Nisolo, a brand known as much for their gorgeous leather and classic, yet cool designs as they are for the fact that they feel like clouds on our old, achy feet.

Here are the key reasons we fell in love with them and, henceforth, declared them the only party shoe we plan to put on this holiday season:

  1. The low block heel means we get arch support, stability, and zero foot pain even after hours and hours of clomping around.

  2. The padded footbed adds extra pamper.

  3. They’re beautifully made with ethically sourced suede and yet, somehow cost $53 right now!?!?

  4. They go with every bottom we own, not just the party dresses. We wear them with jeans, a tee, maybe a black blazer and leave the house looking very, very French and chic.

Here are just a couple things we’ve worn them out with thus far:

 
 

We realize this article is very praising, and therefore, reads suspiciously like a paid ad. But it isn’t. The 4-year-old in us just wanted you to see our favorite party shoes, and the 44-year-old in us just wanted to tell you how f—kin’ comfortable they are.
