The perfect leisurely slip ons. Made in Italy. Designed to meet modern versatility. Pair these with a suit for a tailored look while having to walk to work, or on a mission in corporate skyscrapers.

Make your sweats and a sweatshirt with pushed up sleeves look more intentional and sleek (instead of sloppy) by pairing a bold pop of the white Audrey sport loafers with black sweatpants and a black sweatshirt or hoodie layered over a white tee. 😎 Throw a gold wristwatch on and you’re solid gold.

Visit our online shop to check-out the Audrey in black soft nappa or the white which is a little heftier in terms of structure. Either way- I guarantee you’re gonna love this style❣️

Featured in Business Insider ✨

I’m honored to have been included in Business Insider’s recent article, “4 Sandal Trends That Are In This Summer and 4 That Are Out, According to Stylists and Designers.”

As the founder and designer behind LOU.EARL, I was invited to share my perspective on the sandal trends shaping this season and the details that are influencing how women are choosing footwear today.

Building an independent footwear brand has never been the easiest path, so opportunities like this are especially meaningful. It’s rewarding to see thoughtful design, craftsmanship, and industry experience contribute to larger conversations about fashion and style.

A heartfelt thank you to the Cheyenne Elwell for reaching out and to the entire Business Insider team for including my insights alongside other talented professionals in the industry. 📰❣️

Every style I create is guided by the belief that inspiring stylish footwear should be timeless, meticulously designed, original, affordable and to be worn for years—not just for a single season.

It’s always exciting to contribute to conversations about fashion & style, craftsmanship, and the evolution of women’s footwear. Being recognized by a publication like Business Insider is especially meaningful as an independent designer and small business owner.

This feature comes at an exciting time for LOU.EARL as I’m currently working with a new factory to bring back our signature pointed flats. I’m looking forward to sharing updates and continuing to build upon the styles that have resonated most with our customers. 👡

Thank you to everyone who continues to support 13 years of LOU.EARL and follow this journey. Your encouragement means more than you know. ❣️🙏🏻

Up-cycled leather slides handmade in Los Angeles. Wish the factory I made these at was still around, would love to be making a few “Made in USA” locally produced styles again.
Just sizes 6 and 6 1/2 left. Would also work for any of you size 5’s and 5 1/2 sizes because of the moulded footbed. 💙
