Stella McCartney ‘Skyla Chain Embellished Boots’ – $970.00

On her birthday eve, Taylor was spotted out again in NYC in a black and tan ensemble that I think suffers primarily from two competing ‘spotlight’ grabbing items that feel like fashun twists on closet staples. A trench rendered in unexpected leather, and black heeled boots with oversized elements like a chunky chain and matching textural sole.

While I’ve loved the outerwear by Stella that Taylor has worn recently, this marks two Stella McCartney shoe choices in a row that I am not a fan of. My preference would have been a simple streamlined heeled boot. Though I can appreciate how the chain detail on these boots are a reference to Stella’s iconic handbags while also tying in to Taylor’s bag hardware.

Worn with: Gant coat, Versace bag, and Louis Vuitton + Cathy Waterman jewelry
