Make Your Friends Jealous in Melissa Shoes

Your favorite childhood “jellies” get a mature twist from a Brazilian brand that’s been the authority of plastic footwear for over 30 years. It’s hard to believe Melissa shoes are made of a material typically considered cheap, but along with the shoe’s sophisticated shapes and fun colors, designer collaborations with couturiers like Vivienne Westwood, Karl Lagerfeld and Jason Wu prove the prominent position that Melissa shoes have within the fashion industry.

Be the center of envy amongst your friends with a pair of these environmentally and sartorially friendly shoes.

Ballet Flats

Leather flats, while chic, are passé when compared to these sleek, rubber wonders. Opened, round or pointed toe, these modern takes on a classic ballet flat are composed of a mix of mesh and cutout plastic. For a more feminine style, opt for a pair finished with a bow or flower. If you have an edgier preference, go for a snake print.

Pumps and Wedges

Give high heels an extra boost with these plastic pumps. Strappy stilettos get a punch of fun with rubber-based soles and straps that are still refined but supremely unique. If the thin heel isn’t your thing, venture into other fashion territory with a Melissa platform or wedge. They’ll provide all the support you need without sacrificing their light and shiny look.

Sandals

Step your sandal selection up with Melissa shoes that are better than your average warm weather pairs. Sporty styles with thick straps work best for an athletic-inspired look. Or give gladiators an update with black and silver plated sandals that resemble armor as they travel up the bed of your feet.

Your Melissa shoes will cue the “Where did you get them?” questions from all of your friends. These plastic powerhouses make a fun and fashion-forward statement.

Switch up your shoe collection with Melissa footwear that’s finessed and fun.
