Tabitha Simmons launched her shoe label in 2009, and and since then it has became a cult favorite for every model, celebrity, and editor you can think of. As a fashion editor and stylist herself, she gets what women want in their shoes, offering a range of classic silhouettes with a twist such as Mary Janes in velvet, sandals in perforated leather and embroidered espadrilles. Of course, her life is seems as lustworthy as her designs, if her Instagram is any indication.
