If you’ve ever wondered which shoes I find myself reaching for day after day, I’m happy to share: my absolute favorites are the Harmony ballerina flats and the Hema loafer—both from one of our beloved French lines at Dovecote. I’ve owned mine for almost a year now and wear them nearly every single day. They are soft, flexible, lightweight, and wonderfully comfortable, with a rubber sole that makes them easy to walk in from morning to night.
What I love most about the Harmony ballerina is the design—they offer just enough coverage so that the toe décolleté doesn’t show, which makes them elegant but still modern. And the Hema loafer has that perfect balance of polish and ease, the kind of shoe that goes with nearly everything.
These shoes come in the most fabulous colors, and once you own one pair, you truly will want them in every shade. We originally brought them in our core neutrals: black, navy, camel, and olive. But, of course, we couldn’t resist expanding the palette. Now we carry five additional colors, including the wildly popular blue jean shade that sold out almost immediately last fall.
Happily, it is returning this spring—along with orange brique, pink, yellow ochre, and a vibrant, joyful green that will pair beautifully with so many of our new spring arrivals. If there is a color we don't have, we have the color card that you can special order from as well!
Even better, this weekend Irma will be in Dovecote hosting a trunk show and bringing styles we don’t typically carry—so this is your chance to explore the full collection and discover something new!
And for those of you who have stopped me in the Village to ask about my sneakers: the answer is the Athena sneaker, also from this line. I’ve worn mine for the past year and love them, and I’m thrilled to say we now carry them as well. If you're looking to freshen up your wardrobe (or your mood!) for the season ahead, I can’t recommend these shoes enough.
Come try them on—I suspect you’ll fall in love just as quickly as I did.
