Lengthen Your Leg And Save Your Feet With J. Crew’s Marlene Heels

We’re quite impressed, not to mention relieved, by J. Crew’s Marlene crisscross heels. They perfectly execute that sought-after illusion: the hidden platform.  With a 3 1/4″ heel and the aforementioned quarter-inch platform neatly tucked away in the front, the shoe stays trim and elegant while giving you a lift – without making you feel like you’re about to topple forward.  The Marlene shoe was created because, as Jenna Lyons (J. Crew’s creative director) says, “We all want to wear high heels all day but we can’t!”

Truer words were never spoken.  Don’t worry, we’re here for you – we’ve got more comfortable high heels to help get you through the festive attire season.
