Here’s a look I’m getting on top of, literally. The best new cap-toes are seriously shiny and mesmerizingly metallic. One with some gloss to it adds extra polish and formality to any style of shoe, whether we’re talking working-girl pump or night-owl boot. Actually, I love flats that showcase the cap-toe almost more than heels with the gleaming detail – it’s just the right touch to bring a sense of dress to an easy ballerina.
