Kat Maconie ‘Dee Sandals’ – $311.00
Ahhh the difference a pair of shoes makes. Just the simple switch out to these Kat Maconie jewelled sandals (a growing Lover era brand favourite) and the outfit comes together that much cleaner.
The jewel tones of the shoes speak MUCH better to the embellishment dots on the jumpsuit and provide a cleaner line. Excellent switch out.
Worn with: Stella McCartney jumpsuit

Kat Maconie ‘Kiko Sandals’ – $269.00 $188.00
I am admittedly incredibly picky when it comes to shoes and I always look for opportunities where a fun shoe moment can be employed. I definitely applaud and appreciate the strappy-ness of the heels but a slim neon like a Jimmy Choo Lance sandal would have been my pick or if we really wanted to go “extra” with pattern the Louboutin ‘Faridararavie’ sandal. I’ve been finding Taylor’s latest love for Kat Maconie sandals to be incredibly refreshing.
All that said, it is nice to see new brands come into play than her usual cycle of Jimmy Choo, Giuseppe Zanotti, and Louboutins, but because these fresh and colourful styles are a bit more cost attainable than the typical price tags of those aforementioned brands.
Worn with: Versace blazer + bodysuit + shorts, Misahara earrings, Emily P Wheeler ring, and Simone Perele bra
Get the look: Loeffler Randall, $95.00

Amazon Prime Concert | New York City, NY | July 10, 2019
Kat Maconie ‘Rhinestone Heeled Frida Sandals’ – $220.00 (sold out)
While Taylor is wearing what I am suspecting is another custom Jessica Jones ensemble (edit: nope! The Blondes), my attention thusly turned to her shoes. While a Stella McCartney option would not have been surprising, I love that Taylor chose a stylish pair by Kat Maconie. I always appreciate fun fashion choices and these ones have the right amount of embellishment, fit the colour palette of Lover and have a chunky heel for Taylor to more easily maneuver during her closing set of the Amazon concert.
Also, mad shoutout to Lorrie and Jemma tonight because her beauty and hair were perfect.
Worn with: The Blonds romper and EF Collection earrings
Get the look: Gedebe, $146.00

Kat Maconie ‘Pammy Platform Sandals’ – $360.00
As some of you may know, I am a lover of ankle strap heels.
As some of you may also know, I am not a lover of platform heels.
So where does my heart stand on these platform ankle strap heels?
… Kinda love them. And they’re just one part of an equation that I would like to refer to as a perfectly coordinated outfit. It balances saccharine without being too sweet, fun without being too twee, and is era on brand. What do you think?
(Also props to me for accidentally namedropping the album title).
Worn with: Saint Laurent blazer + blouse, and IRO shorts
Get the look: TJ Maxx, $59.99
