I appreciate my big brother, I do. But every once in awhile I wish I had a cool big sister... and if a couture-wearing fairy godmother were to grant my wish, I would want that cool big sister to be Charlotte Ronson.

Can I just have them in every color? Please? These are flawless ballet flats that any shoe rack could benefit from.
