Que Syrah, Syrah

Wine is undoubtedly the premiere symbol of seduction, relaxation, and all things classy. Nothing seems to let the world know that you're, well, wordly better than spewing forth tidbits of obscure wine trivia. If you prefer to refrain from indulging in either the drink or its associated hoity-toity behavior, the Grand Mademoiselle suggests retaining an element of its elegance by donning similarly tinted shoes. Running the gamut from glossy, ruby-colored pomegranate to blushing, blooming rose, a little vino goes a long way toward providing a veritable cornucopia of lovely purples, pinks, and reds. The Grand M is wild about wine-hued flats in all styles, and the rich tones lend an air of sophistication and style sensitivity to even the most casual ensembles.

The Crosstoe flat, by designer All Black, is the perfect Cabernet color to kick off this trend (aptly dubbed Wine), and its luscious combination of snakeskin and eel is playfully enhanced by a reflective strip of golden patent leather. The Grand M could swim in the Crosstoe's deep Merlot upper for days, the rich hue a delightful commingling of tart cherry tones with vibrant burgundy notes. This is vino luxury at its finest, and All Black has created a timeless pointed toe flat, made even more elegant by the gathered elastic heel to ensure a proper fit.

If you're looking for something a little lighter, try Miu Miu's playful Scrunchy Oxford, fashioned of sumptuous leather in a remarkably original blush tone with a heady mauve bouquet. The Oxford is classic Miu Miu, made of ingenuity, risk, and ritz to combine in a delightful twist on a tasteful gentleman's staple. This is vino swagger at its finest, and Miu Miu dials up the It factor with an unsuspected scrunchy elastic shape.

Pair Miu Miu's deliciously ostentatious jeweled ballerina flats with anything and witness the power of wine, which transforms by virtue of its deeply seductive, intriguing composition. These Miu Miu flats may not run to size 14, but they manage to pack a lot of punch in a little bit of shoe! The Grand M simply cannot ignore them, and the metallic grape leather upper, offset by large blue jewels, is vino decadence at its finest. You can practically smell the vineyard soil ...
