The iconic American actress and singer Bette Midler once said, “I firmly believe that with the right footwear, one can rule the world.” With the intense rainy season we’re experiencing and the holiday season just around the corner, it may be time to invest in footwear that is chic, fashionable, and can withstand unpredictable weather.
To help you find your perfect pair, here are some recommendations on where to find them.
Zaxy
If you love jelly shoes and are environmentally conscious, Zaxy has you covered. This Brazilian footwear brand produces pieces that are 100 percent vegan, eco-friendly, and cruelty-free, allowing fashion-forward women to walk confidently into the future, knowing their choices make a positive impact.
One of our favorite picks from this brand is the Flow Loafers—a pair that will elevate your look and give an instant height boost. If you prefer heels, try the Pop Up Flat Fem with its glossy, vibrant finish and heels that channel the Barbiecore aesthetic. Another great choice is the Ballerina flat, available in a variety of colors and designs.
