What do I have in common with women like HRH Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, Lady Gaga, Halle Berry and Amal Clooney? You can name it because of the title – my shoes! Do you want to dance over the red carpet, walk confidently and not bite your lips because your feet hurt so much, or avoid taking pain killers to be able to walk for hours in heels. I was there, I did it and let me tell you, it’s not worth it. Do you want to know the secret of the stars? Then let’s start.
When Sarah Flint created her shoe brand, she wanted to make shoes that are comfortable, long-lasting and durable. She wanted the highest quality and the best craftsmanship and where do you find that? In Italy, of course. Unlike other shoe brands, which are only assembled in Italy, Sarah Flint shoes are 100% made in Italian family-owned factories.
I saw the shoes pop up everywhere in my Instagram and when the brand approached me and asked, if I would be interested to be a brand ambassador, I was over the moon with excitement. It was so hard to wait until I had my own pair in my hands, and when it was finally delivered to my home. Starting with the gorgeous packaging, the card with the name of the creator of my shoe, the beautiful dust bags and then the shoes themselves – it was such a special gift and I literally felt like a princess.
I decided to choose the PERFECT PUMP 100 in the sand calf color. Did I already have a nude color pump in my closet? Yes, I did. But they were a darker tone with a glossy finish. And when I saw these pumps from Sarah Flint, I knew immediately that I have to own them. Without a doubt it was love at first sight.
The pumps are not only beautiful, but also very comfortable. As you can see on the pictures, they have an arch support that makes it easier to walk in them all day. They also come with an additional 6mm of foot bed padding, a wider toe-box (my toes were so happy, I could hear them singing with joy!) and a center steel rod heel for security and durability.
When I first tried them on, they felt a bit snug and I was unsure if the size I chosen was right for me. However, after walking in them around the house a bit more, the pumps felt perfect. Are you unsure about the sizing? Sarah Flint has a great tool on their website to find the right size for you in 30 seconds. You can even save your sizing and it shows you the recommended size for every shoe style. This makes your shopping so much easier.
This perfect pump 100 quickly became my absolute go-to shoe when I wanted to have legs for days and wanted to feel extra powerful and put together. One of the reasons why I chose the nude heels was that they extend your legs and when you’re on the petite team (I’m 5’3″) you want exactly that. Honestly, I always feel like a model in these heels! No wonder that I’m wearing them for a lot for pictures, date nights and even when I feel a little bit blue and not very beautiful – these shoes always boost my mood.
Maybe you will tell me: “but these shoes are so expensive!” Do you know about the CPW – the cost per wear? You calculate how often you’re wearing an item to see the real cost of it. I’m calling this smart shopping and it helps me to buy better and more mindfully. You think you will buy cheaper clothes to save money. Often these cheaper items are trendy for a short time (as little as a few weeks), and they are made from cheaper materials….this results in them being less comfortable and durable, and so you end up wearing them only a few times. Does this sound familiar? When considering the cost per wear, you will easily see that the more expensive shoes were really the better value over time, because they were more durable, comfortable and had lasting style. Think about a Chanel bag. Yes, it’s definitely an investment – but you will have this bag for a life-time and even longer when you pass it on to someone like your daughter. Let’s be honest, these bags are created with no expiration date and when you take care of them, they will last forever. So, when you’re wearing your Chanel bag at least 2-3 days per week for many years – the cost per wear is relatively low and it justifies the purchase.
And with these Sarah Flint shoes you will experience the same like with a Chanel bag. I was wearing them already so often that the cost per wear is very low and will continue to come down over time. In the end, these shoes were less expensive than some of my other shoes that I have not worn so often and you know why? Because they’re not comfortable and I can’t walk in them all day long. As someone who worked in Sales, where I was standing a lot, and later as an account manager where I was always on the run from one city to the next, I can tell you.. I almost cried when reflecting back on the shoes I wore earlier in my corporate life, and I wish I had such great shoes then! I remember all of these evenings when I was finally able to take out off my shoes, my feet were in so much pain and my toes were all smashed together. No more of these days with the perfect pump, hooray!
And I’m so happy to share with you my discount code. With the code SARAHFLINT-BAAUDREY you will get 50 USD off of your first purchase and this will lower the cost per wear even more.
Love,
Audrey
