Jessica Simpson’s Favorite Shoe From Her Footwear Line: Where to Buy

Jessica Simpson has called these shoes her “power platform,” and we can totally see why.

In a since-expired Instagram Story, the “I Wanna Love You Forever” singer shared a snapshot of herself sitting astride a leather couch, wearing a dramatic pair of platform sandals from her eponymous footwear line. Simpson also wore a striped ’70s-inspired jumpsuit and large sunglasses with her shoe of choice. The musician accompanied the photo with a lengthy caption that read in part, “In our almost 20 years of designin’ and cobblin’ shoes, this style is the one I like to call my power platform.”

The shoes in question? Simpson’s Aamina platforms.

This style isn’t for the faint of heart. Retailing for $129 on her website, the footwear features wild faux leather gold metallic uppers embossed with textural snakeskin. The reptilian print gives way to sky-high platform soles and equally lofty block heels standing at 5.5 inches in height.

The shoe silhouette is caged in, comprised of thin and sturdy straps that intersect atop the foot, winding around the ankle. Adjustable buckle closures create a custom fit. Finally, Jessica Simpson branding can be seen on the insole in complementary gold lettering. If the gold metallic isn’t your thing, the silhouette also comes in an all-silver metallic snakeskin print. Both options are equally statement-making, diversifying any wardrobe.

Simpson has always been a fan of platform styles, and we can see why. Like the Aamina silhouette, platforms create the illusion of height and length. We’d recommend platform styles like these to our vertically challenged readers looking for a substantial boost. The Aamina gives nostalgic vibes, evoking go-go dancers and chilled vodka-based cocktails.

To style, we’d likely take notes from Simpson, opting for ’70s-esque pieces. Think jumpsuits, bell-bottoms and maxidresses. You have a bunch of styling options to choose from when wearing these. In maximalist fashions, you could opt for bold pieces that play on the metallic finish of these platforms. You can also take the casual route, sporting denim and a crisp white blouse to balance out the eye-catching footwear. Whichever way you choose, you’d be remiss not to get these. As discussed, the styling options are limitless, and the price isn’t too bad either.

Simpson ventured into the world of footwear back in 2005, initially launching in collaboration with Vince Camuto. Since then, her brand has expanded to include a range of shoe styles from platforms, Simpson’s faves, to sneakers.
