To ask a true shoe lover to pick their favourite pair is like asking a mother to choose which of her children she loves best... with each pair comes a story, a memory, a laugh shared and a paycheck spent... so after painstaking deliberation I was able to pick my top three... and by top I don't mean necessarily by designer... I'm sure you agree that it's not always the label that makes a shoe special... often times the first pair of heels you skipped a meal for, whether they were $20 or $200 are your most treasured pair... well after Mr. Louboutin and the like have taken over your closet.
That is where this pair, my first contenders, come in. I walked into a nameless vintage shop and found them hidden at the back... picked them up for $50... I loved the gold leather and the fact that the translucent mesh would change colour depending on what stocking I wore them with... Little did I know that in the weeks to come... with EVERY outfit I tried on, when it came to adding shoes... these guys always won out... ALWAYS... they went with everything... jeans, pans, skirts, shorts, you name it... I have a bit of an androgynous style in that I love to incorporate menswear into my wardrobe... these shoes added the right amount of spice and femininity to any outfit I matched them with... they turned out to be my "little engine that could!"
MORE INFO TO COME!!
Will post the other top two pics from my collection... their stories...and why I'd love the chance to design for you, LB, and Jeffrey Campbell!
