Villa Leandre

Only a few months ago, the idea of wearing heels on the cobblestones of Paris seemed absolutely crazy. In reality, it can be done – even by a North American who grew up with concrete sidewalks – but you have to learn how. I started practising on the uneven cobbles in the courtyard of my apartment and soon enough found myself able to cover the hill in Montmartre, from Blanche metro station to the romantic Villa Leandre, a pretty little street off avenue Junot, while wearing my new booties from Ahai Shopping. I’ve been wearing them practically non-stop since they arrived – I love the zip closures on the back, they go with everything and, best of all, they’re surprisingly comfortable!
