New shoes! New shoes! I got new shoes!
Sweater: Club Monaco
Dress: Fresh Baked Goods
Shoes: Fluevog Presence Hi | Desmond
These shoes are not something I would normally be drawn to but I'm so thrilled with them. They're canvas shoes covered in a super saturated wax coating. I felt very 1960s retro in my pointy stilettos.
Well, the heel isn't really a stiletto since it has a nice curved shape to it.
They aren't the most comfortable shoes but I'm reserving judgement until after I've worn them a few times.
The blue of the shoe matches the ribbons on my dress almost perfectly.
I've called this my crazy cat lady dress but now I think I'm going to call it my Downton Tabby dress since the cat portraits on the fabric are in the tradition of old British estates. And Downton Abbey is a brilliant show.
Oh! I was just looking at those online last night! They are such a great saturated deep blue and I adore the curved heel.
ReplyDeleteI wonder about the canvas, though, and how it will fit - I have another pair of 'Vogs (Memories, Madly Deeply) that are satin and they've never stretched in the 4+ years I've had them. They KILL my feet, but I love them and will never give them up.
I really like how they pull out the blue of the dress - and what a fun print!
Adorable! The new Vogs are gorgeous. And the kitten dress?! How perfect. The shoes do pull the blue color out of the dress.
ReplyDeleteI love it. The shoes are beautiful. I love the shape of the heel.
ReplyDeleteI love your style! I just found you through Ephemera. The cat portraits on the fabric are divine and I love how you've chosen blue shoes for this outfit.
ReplyDeleteThe pattern on that dress with those shoes...it's official I am coveting yet another one of your outfits :) I also love that you are posting every day! It keeps my RSS feed inspired.

ReplyDeleteThose blue heels are pretty fabulous I have to say!
ReplyDeleteAlso - re: your comment! I do find the larger sizes sell out quickly! I just go relatively frequently and hope for the best. I lucked out with those two dresses! :)
