Updating classics by adding a heel? Sometimes, the result is a travesty. But what do you think of these modified Bass Glenbrook Saddle Shoes?

Things we like about the modified saddle shoe: their black and white charm, the ladylike not-too-high heel, their practical lace-up-ness, the $69 price tag. Things we are confused about: what to wear them with this spring (besides bobby socks).
