And while we're giving some attention to high heels, these recently caught mine.
And they're ooonly from three #%*ing Spring seasons back, LoL... .How'd these babies slip by me?!
Even more surprising: they're by Acne. Stunner.
The fact that I like them better in white than black surprises me most of all.
Would be interesting to hear from others about which they prefer, and why. I love how they're being worn in the pic above, and aside from throwing these on with a pencil skirt, I'd wear them exactly the same way.
I might just have to hunt. A girl cannot live by dunks alone.

hehe, acne does surprise now and then, always have...so hit or miss to the extreme ends of the spectrum...and those are an amazing example of strap me up/ravage me if i ever saw one.
agree that the wearer nailed the look...really like the fact that she didnt muck it up with painted toes. the white is more dramatic than the black, but the copper heel and hardware plate under the heel of the black pair is hot shit
how do you find this stuff???

I have these in black. I bought them because they reminded me a bit of A.F. Vandevorst. Not really their Fetish shoe line but more of a general vibe. While I don't regret purchasing them (got them on sale for 70% off) they are not comfortable to wear at all. Not that heels like this are ever meant to be comfortable but I am quite used to chasing after the bus in four inch heels and these are too much for me. I think I've worn them about two times and both times were really not pleasent.
But they are gorgeous, even more so in white I didn't even know they existed in another colour and if you manage to find them: Buy them, even if it's a shoe for sitting on a barstool and being aware of the fact that you have a really great pair of shoes onlavender menace

Speaking of pain, rider how are your new Dries heels in terms of comfort, or should I say discomfort? I've had my eye on them but of course they sold out in 36 faster than I could make up my mind. I love most of his shoe offerings this season even the silver pumps. Do you think the heels run wide? I have a really narrow foot and usually need some kind of strap to make them work.lavender menace

morning Verdandi - he finally got the heels so that you dont topple over on them, a problem i've had in the past with his skinny heels that were ill placed and under-run, not so with the wider shape. so, the heels this season are very wearable and quite comfortable ... all day. i did get a 1/2 size larger than my usual size which is standard fare for Dries footwear i would say.
i'm glad i'm not the only one who slips out of pumps because of a narrow heel ;-), i can never buy them for that reason and that's why i chose the slingback, for some reason i dont have that issue with these.
the cracked silver with the little platform is definitely a favorite and if i didnt already have an older version i would have chosen that. i think you will be able to find those in a 36.

These words, soon to be immortalized.

Me, too.

Usually, while looking for OTHER stuff. .Seriously!
I stumble across some crazy-good, crazy-bad, and just plain crazy stuff.
Ooh if my iPhoto could talk. Ha!

Stop doing that, girl. Buses are the last thing worth chasing.

Works for me.
