Invest: Jimmy Choo India Mirrored Sandals

When it comes to investment purchases, we often talk about the value of a classic black pump or smart riding boots. But, don't forget that you will also attend many parties over the years. From cocktails, to dinner parties, to weddings, there are many occasions that call for a party shoe. So, investing in a timeless dressy sandal in a wear-with-everything metallic is a smarter investment than it would seem at first blush.

The Jimmy Choo India Mirrored Sandal in gold metallic is the epitome of an investment party shoe. The slender, 3.5" heel is graceful and ladylike, but still super walkable for anyone who regularly wears heels. The spare toe straps and lack of an ankle strap makes these sandals great for giving the illusion of a longer leg, and the metallic gold color will pair perfectly with a huge range of colors and styles. Plus, since these are clearly special occasion shoes, they're going to last practically forever. Really.

The versatility, timeless silhouette and super high quality Jimmy Choo construction make these party shoes a great fashion investment.
