Travel Essential
NewbarK shoes
Iranian sister duo Maryam and Marjan Malakpour’s footwear label NewbarK is an absolute must-have for jetsetting travelers.
The uber-chic L.A.-based stylists’ label (which took its name from the saying “when the dogs are barking”, meaning when your feet are yelping out in pain) features the comfiest slip-on shoes you could ever imagine. Expect hand-stitched, Moroccan-inspired shoes with chic patent and lamé finishes that you can simply pull on for quick glamour on the go. To boot, they come in a handy pouch and can be easily folded away. What else would you expect from two girls who are often referred to as L.A.’s answer to Carine Roitfeld?
NewbarK shoes, from $210, ship internationally from Net-a-Porter.
