Katherinev123 — October 3, 2009 — Fashion
Your go-to ballet flats have something to worry about. Newbark Shoes, a line of jazzy slippers by L.A. sister stylists Maryam and Marjan Malakpour (who have styled the likes of Heidi Klum and Courteney Cox-Arquette), are making their way into the fashion scene and onto your feet.
A glamorous spin on the Moroccan babouche and English men’s slipper, Newbark Shoes are a bit pricey at $350 USD per pair. But they look so gosh-darn comfortable they might be worth it. According to Vogue, these spiffy slippers, which are available exclusively at Net-a-Porter.com, “seem poised to become the next necessity-accessory.”
