Love is in the air and as the wedding season is upon us, this month I’ve been doing a lot of singing! To quote Marilyn Monroe, my French Sole India flats, like diamonds… “Are a girl’s best friend”. . . Those are praises sung from […]
A trip to Rome earlier this year left me yearning for another Italian adventure. Having just received my brand new Henrietta flats, made of sumptuous nude woven leather, I decided my trip should be somewhere more rustic and in tune with nature. The north would be too […]
A most spontaneous decision came to me just the other day, while I stared lovingly at my brand new French Sole Henrietta in crocodile print…Which by the way, now come in the exciting new colours of cool coral, elegant taupe and exquisite turquoise. Hot on the […]
I’m writing this between sips of my ice-cold Limoncello, not far from The Spanish Steps, relieved to be sitting down and giving my beautiful French Sole sandals a well-deserved rest. It seems only fair after all, as these super soft favourites of mine have been […]
A mere glimpse of French Sole Henrietta ballet flats will echo in me words such as Plie, Balancé, Coupé and Pas de bourrée. These are terms, that fill me equally with joy as much as with fear, for they form the core of my youth […]
Today I’m venturing out on a secret agent mission, to test how sneaky my new French Sole sneakers can really be. “Moochers”, that’s the name they’ve given to these super silent lace-ups and I’m told that they’ve become the favourite footwear of Californian celebrities […]
I’m very excited to welcome you to the French Sole blog, written by me, Amélie Florentine. An eternal optimist, dreamer who loves beauty in all its forms but also one who has a penchant for art, everything with a flower motif and for pink cakes! […]
Hello, my name is Amélie Florentine, I love beauty in all its forms but I also have a penchant for art, antiques and pink cakes. I keep a good book by my side at all times and I travel the world in my French Sole shoes, that I'm addicted to almost as much as pink macaroons. As a devoted fan of my most beloved shoe brand I'll be sharing with you French Sole latests news and my own ideas of how to style their divine footwear with different outfits, so kick off your high heels and enjoy reading my posts!
Romantic as I am, occasionally I like to take a walk on the wild side. And what better way to do that than with a pair of leopard print flats from French Sole’s signature collection, the purrfect choice for my latest adventure, an exploration of the urban jungle that is New York City. With a new thrill waiting around every corner, everything seems possible. . . even a Breakfast at Tiffany’s (and yes they really do that now), my choice of footwear made it easy for me to leap like a leopard from one location to the next.
To add to my experience, with my concealing camouflage of an all-black ensemble, consisting of a pencil skirt and a cotton wrap top made me clearly look like I belonged to the city that never sleeps. At one point, I was mistaken by a tourist for a native New Yorker! Flattered by the compliment my new leopard print flats received and the fact I was taken for a local of the Big Apple, it didn’t even occur to me that I was giving the unfortunate woman completely the wrong directions. Well, at least she knows from where I got my fabulous shoes!
The list of places to see and things to do in Manhattan is endless. My many hours spent at The Met, Central Park and a lingering stroll along what felt surely like the length of 5th Avenue did leave me feeling exhausted but exhilarated because I was dressed for it. After all French Sole flats are always the right choice, no matter where you go in this town, you will feel like you can be a part of it. The only thing to remember is your red lipstick and pardon moi! Of course a credit card for indulging in shopping later.
I’m very curious how other French Sole fans are styling their French Sole Henrietta flats in leopard print. Do mention #frenchsoleblogbyamelie on your Instagram and I’ll be reposting the most creative looks on our FS page.
With love,
Amélie Florentine
