While these sandals are known as the alleviate platform, their 7-inch heel height may invoke pain for those who aren't used to walking in high pumps.
Jeffrey Campbell is known for designing shoes that are absolutely breath-taking, and these are no exception -- you'll just need to practice walking in these before wearing them in public. If the high heels plus the 3.5-inch platform don't intimidate you, the shoes present one more challenge -- they're curved. Not only are your heels balancing on an arch, your toes sit on an interesting, uneven platform.
These sleek black and white pumps embody a very chic look, as they have cute black laces and an ankle strap, making the front view look like sweet ballerina shoes.
