Now I know most people ahem Miss JennaB scoff at the idea of kitten heels but after all the classic movies I watched, they started to seem charming to me. So I decided to give them a go around. I upped the sex kitten aspect of lone inch heels by wearing a short hemline and a leopard print top. Rrwar!
Despite the absence of three or four (or more) inches that I usually look for in heels, the kitten heels still surprisingly elongated my legs in a way that flats cannot (I despise flats).
So ladies if you find 4 inch heels played out or painful I urge to give the little kitties a try, but remember you must still elongate your legs when wearing them. You can achieve this by pairing them with something high waisted or a short hemline.
Oh darlings, Bette, Marilyn and Audrey would all be so proud.
Of course Miss Pennie lane came out to play!
Ohh little skittish kitten!
Gotta love Animal prints this season as well.

Will you be giving kitten heels a try?
i'm not much of a kitten heels person myself but that's probably because of my stumpier legs :)
ReplyDeletethese look amazing on you--super sophisticated and lengthening!
I find kitten heels more comfy than flats. I love "high heels" also but I've kinda given up that idea for my daily grind.......
ReplyDeleteYes, no matter what anyone says, I adore a one or two inch kitten heel. Love seeing your Pennie Lane cat, so cute!
ReplyDeleteI get nervous mixing prints, but you pulled it off so well! Gorgeous outfit!
ReplyDeleteI love your side poses in the mirror! So cute! And of course, gotta love Pennie Lane! :)
I love this! That skirt is so cute!
ReplyDeleteI love it!! You look so gorgeous!

You look awesome in that leopard print top. i think the kitten heels are perfect with the leopard pattern!
ReplyDeleteI love the tittle of your post, I used to collect Hello Kitty when I was a kid many many years ago.
I'm not really sure why but I've always had a major aversion to kitten heels. I'll let you have my share... ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love how you mixed those prints! It worked perfectly. I don't have any kitten heels but I might try them out to be practical!

ReplyDeletevery good advice to pair the kittens with a high waist or short hemline ~ that makes a world of difference ~
ReplyDeleteLove the mix!
ReplyDeleteLovely Outfit love the 2 Prints I'm such a Leopard Print Freak :) X Happy Friday! x Ari...Following.
ReplyDeleteThanks ladies!! Glad you all liked the outfit! It was so nice to get dressed again!
ReplyDeleteIt's also nice to hear your opinions on Kitten heels they are definitely for some and not all! But I love to hear your feedback and how you personally feel about them.
You wear them well! I've heard that kitten heels have come back in this season, too. :)
ReplyDeleteI probably won't be trying out that trend though, if I'm going to wear heels I'm going all out! The tips you gave were great though! And that skirt is tooo cute!
You did such an amazing job combining these prints! Love the outfit!
ReplyDeleteFirst - I love the leopard top against the skirt. It looks so good on you - ridiculous good.
ReplyDeleteAnd the kitten heels are really chic. They give that 60's vibe that is so classy - I gave a pair to Goodwill last year and am totally kicking myself after seeing this post. Argh
I especially love the last picture!!

ReplyDeleteI just love this look! And I'm loving your blog. SO happy to have discovered it. And yes I do love kitten heels. I have a few pairs of Prada's from like 8 years ago that I still wear to this day. They're timeless, chic, unique & comfy :)
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
i don't think i own anything leopard print! maybe b/c i'm allergic to cats :)
ReplyDeletelove the different prints!
ReplyDeletei have to say..i dont love kitten heels all that much but they look great on you! and i love the top...ive been on the lookout for one just like it.
ReplyDeleteI will admit, I wear them often... I just bust my arse if I try anything else... but your tips for still elongating are great!!
ReplyDeletethe kitty is so adorable! and i love how you wear the shirt and skirt :)
ReplyDeletelove the colors in the skirt. What a cat! I hope they are comfy shoes
ReplyDeleteThis is perfection. The outfit drapes, but it still has a form, and it fits you perfectly. I love the color combination too!
ReplyDeleteGreat leopard top!

This is a cute look, I really like the leopard top! For me, I like kitten heels only if the heel is chunky. But really, I always prefer flats or boots, too much running around for me!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely comments, cute skirt. I'm not big on kitten heels but I do have a pair of kitten heeled penny loafers that's been for unworn for far too long, might give it a wear some day soon.

ReplyDeleteLove the Joie top and I love this mix of prints!
ReplyDeletewow ladiea! Thanks for all the comments, compliments and feedback!
ReplyDeleteKitten heels sound like a nice alternative for the Fall & Winter. High heels ice can be tricky.
ReplyDeleteI love your mix of prints here! Totally inspiring!
