Setup
Using your Araceli Block Heel Mary Jane Pumps is straightforward:
- Unpack: Carefully remove the pumps from their packaging.
- Adjust Strap: Unfasten the adjustable strap closure. Place your foot into the shoe, ensuring your heel is comfortably seated.
- Secure Fit: Fasten the strap, adjusting it so it's snug but not too tight. You should be able to slide one finger underneath the strap comfortably. This ensures both security and comfort.
- First Wear: Walk around briefly indoors to ensure the fit is correct and comfortable before extended wear.

- Apparel: Excellent with professional attire (skirts, dresses, tailored pants), casual dresses, jeans, and various evening wear.
- Color Palettes: The crisp white color pairs well with bright, pastel, or dark outfits, making it a flexible addition to any wardrobe.
- Other Variants: The Araceli series is available in various colors (Black, Red Suede) and sizes (UK 3-9), including wide-fit options, allowing you to choose the perfect match for your preference and foot type.
Care
To ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your white faux leather pumps, follow these care instructions:
- Regular Cleaning: After each wear, wipe the faux leather surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove any dust or superficial dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution (like dish soap diluted in water) on a cloth, then wipe with a clean damp cloth to remove soap residue.
- Spot Treatment: For scuffs or marks, a magic eraser or a specialized faux leather cleaner can be used gently. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the material.
- Storage: Store the pumps in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or box to protect them from dust and potential scuffs. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive brushes, or submerse the shoes in water, as this can damage the faux leather and adhesives.
- Sole Care: Regularly check the rubber sole for wear. If traction begins to diminish significantly, consider having them resoled by a professional.
