We’ve noticed recently that actress Kristen Stewart has developed an affinity for a certain vintage shoe style: T-strap shoes.
Can you blame her?

T-strap shoes always evoke class, elegance, and to some extent, a certain nostalgia. No matter how recently they were made or worn, the t-strap always manages to look like a classy vintage shoe.
