Reading through your comments on our asking which shoe designers you want to see, I realized many of you asked to see Elizabeth and James to be featured. Ask and ye shall receive.

Who would have thought that the Olsen twins would become the little petite moguls they are today? All I still think of when I see them is Full House, a personal favorite childhood tv show of mine filled with silly plots and Michelle Tanner. But now Michelle Tanner is a distant past for this style mavens who collaborated to create Elizabeth and James. Their clothing is very downtown chic with a vibe perfectly suited for all ages but I always imagine them working best on 20 and 30 somethings.


Elizabeth and James Sky Suede Booties Elizabeth and James Sky Suede Booties with Elastic Straps Their shoes are newer to my radar. But I am loving the Elizabeth and James Sky Suede Booties with Elastic Straps.

Elastic straps. Do you know how much comfort this can add to a shoe? Not everyone has the same size foot and there is much more to sizes than the length. I love for my shoes to have a little give which typically leads to them being much more comfortable. The style of these shoes is on par with the brand and actually quite wearable. I love how the leather is distressed which will help it work well with browns, blacks, and all colors in between. The design of the straps is sexy and interesting and there is a 4.25″ covered heel. Buy via ShopBop for $350.

    Elastic straps?!How awesome is that,these are gorgeous! I got 2 pairs of E&J sandals during the shopbop sale. These girls really know what they’re doing! I’ve always thought Ashley had great style. While, Mary-Kate insisted on dressing like a homeless person for a few years. This brand is great though, i consider their pieces very “comfy-casual”.Can’t wait to see more from them!

    They don’t look very polished, but I guess that’s part of their charm.

  • Kara

    Love EJ shoes just got my first two pairs!

  • adrienne

    interesting

  • Ashley

    I love that the elastic straps don’t look elastic. I think when the elastic is really noticeable, it cheapens the shoe a bit. These are both super stylish and comfy!

  • JenG

    Not my favorite type of bootie but the straps and the color made me fall for them. Gorgeous.

  • Michelle

    These are cute, but I might have to see them in person to judge them fully.

  • Chelsea Clark

    They’re super cute

  • Michele

    Love them, but would have loved them more with a platform.

    • Sakyie

      After reading your comment, you’re spot on. Though, I already love these shoes, a platform would these a “must-have” for me. Instead of “admire from afar” :)

  • Lisa Garrett

    I have some great outfits for these shoes. Nice sexy shoe for me to Salsa dance in!

  • erg

    These are great. I wish that more shoe companies would use elastic straps so that the shoe would fit better, but only if it looked good like this.
