Croc-Effect Platform Penny Loafers

For the more ambiguous dress codes, these penny loafers excel at leaving you looking dressed up but still relaxed and simplistic. Featuring a crocodile-embossed finish and covered square-toe design, it is hard to resist not wearing these penny loafers on a daily basis. Finished in a classy soft yellow hue, they open up a world of styling possibilities as well. Try them on with a pantsuit and accessorise with a pair of cat-eye glasses for a stylish finish.
