Polished enough for the boardroom, simple enough for every stop after it
Workdays rarely stay at the desk. There is the walk from the car park, the lunch across the street and the appointment you squeezed in late in the afternoon. Your shoes have to look put together for all of it, from the first coffee to the last handshake. The Annabel™ was designed for exactly those full, busy days.
Annabel is a Mary Jane with a gently raised wedge heel, a rounded toe and a hook-and-loop strap across the instep, finished with a gold-tone embellished ornament. Fine zigzag stitching traces the opening of the shoe, a tailored touch that looks right with pants, a pencil skirt or a midi dress.
Why is it so hard to find work shoes that look smart and stay put all day?
Most dress shoes get the look right and leave the rest to chance. Annabel was built around the three things that usually go wrong.
A shoe that keeps working loose
Slip-on pumps tend to loosen at the heel as the day goes on, so you end up curling your toes just to keep them on, especially on stairs or when you are walking quickly from one room to the next.
The Mary Jane strap across the instep holds Annabel in place on your foot, so it stays where it belongs without any effort from your toes.
Toes pressed into a narrow front
A pointed or tight toe can look elegant in the box and feel very different after a few hours of meetings, errands and standing in line for coffee.
Annabel has a rounded toe and a roomy toe area, so your toes have space instead of being pressed together.
A heel that is either too much or too little
A narrow stiletto puts all of your height on one thin point, and a completely flat shoe can look too casual next to a blazer. Finding something in between is harder than it should be.
The wedge gives you a little height on a broad base that runs the length of the sole, instead of resting it all on one narrow heel.
Designed for women who want to look ready at every stop
Annabel suits the woman whose day moves from the office to a client lunch to a parent-teacher meeting, and who wants one pair that looks appropriate everywhere she goes.
Annabel comes in Burgundy, Black and Greige, in sizes AU 4 through AU 12.
Imagine wearing your Annabel
It is a crisp morning. You put on Annabel in Burgundy with dark tailored pants and a long coat, fasten the strap and head to work. By mid-afternoon you have walked to two meetings and a lunch appointment, and your shoes still look as polished as the rest of your outfit. At the end of the day you go straight on to dinner with a friend, and your Annabel shoes look just as right at the table as they did at your desk.
No shoe working loose at the heel.
No toes pressed into a pointed front.
No changing into another pair before dinner.
