Sarah, Duchess of York made a whimsical fashion statement on route to one of her favorite London hotspots, private member's club Lou Lou's in Mayfair. Taking style cues from her daughters Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice, she dressed up a simple, yet chic LBD with a pastel pink blazer. The Duchess carried a dove-grey tote bag and accessorized with a gold pendant. However, what REALLY made her outfit stand out was her choice of footwear: a unique pair of suede loafers by French Sole. The $260 "EAT ME DRINK ME" Hefner slipper-style shoes were designed in a light pastel hue and feature embroidered motifs on the front. On one shoe there is a sewn image of a bottle that reads: "Drink Me". While the other carries a stitched cookie that reads "Eat Me". These slogans are from the Lewis Carroll classic Alice in Wonderland and are part of the brand's collaboration with blogger Alice Naylor-Leyland.
