Boyfriend Shirt + Velvet Mules.

Love a basic button-down and jeans with burgundy velvet mules.

Mules are in. If you’ve been reading LSR lately, you know this. And the slipper flat has been a thing for a bit, but now the fashion gods have taken it a bit further with velvet mules. Seriously, it’s like a velvet slipper your granddad wore in the late 50’s and I’m so here for it.

I wanted to keep the rest of the look simple to demonstrate that you don’t need an over-the-top outfit to wear with a pair of equally crazy shoes. These kicks go with everything, guys. I’m wearing a Gap boyfriend button-up (so good, check it out here) and skinnies by Silver Jeans. A neck scarf and silver sunglasses round out the easy + breezy weekend look.

Shop the look:

Okay, so what else to wear these velvet mules with? I’m thinking with tights and a polished dress for holiday parties or formal office settings, or with dark joggers and a leather jacket for a cool street look. See? These guys are versatile.
