Inspiration Notebook: Modern Mary-Jane Flats

1-minute read

The Modern Mary-Jane Flat by Poppy Barely Introducing: Poppy Barley's Modern Mary-Jane flats, one of three new customizable styles from Poppy Barley's Spring/Summer 2013 Flats Collection (our fourth style, The Contemporary Ballet, will be released later this year). One of the biggest shoe trends of the season, the eye-catching angles on The Modern Mary-Jane are all-at-once alluring and refined. While a dainty, removable ankle strap ensures an extra-secure fit, the colour-blocking options in Spring’s hottest hues, and cool hardware options (add zippers or studs to the heel) provide the kind of versatility essential to a girl-about-town.
The Modern Mary-Jane by Poppy Barley
From crowded city streets and sparkling lights, to sunny, overflowing patios, The Modern Mary-Jane was designed to take you there with ease. Darling, daring, and de rigueur, it's a retro flat tailor-made for any occasion.Contemporary Ballet Pair this style with a long flowing skirt during the day; and skinnies, a casual tee and some statement jewellery for a night out downtown. Our Modern Mary-Jane flats are fit to you exact foot length and width, and have a whole lotta character and style (without sacrificing on comfort).

Belt Measuring Guide

Belt Measuring Guide

A - High-rise style:

If you plan to wear your belt around your natural waistline, wrap a measuring tape around the narrowest part of your midsection. Then, add 3” to determine your high-rise belt size.

B - Mid-rise style:

If you plan to wear your belt lower than your natural waistline, you will require a dierent size. If you have a particular pair of bottoms you intend to wear your belt with, wrap a measuring tape through the belt loops while in a relaxed position.

When wearing your belt in your preferred style, it should fasten in the middle hole. The belt will relax with wear allowing you to cinch it tighter, as needed.

If you plan to wear the belt in both the high and mid-rise styles, you have two options:

  1. Select your high-rise style and fasten it more loosely when worn in the mid-rise style.
  2. Select your mid-rise style and fasten it more tightly when worn in the high-rise style.
