PORN!!!
First – a very important announcement. Apparently, this week only, DUO has free shipping to anywhere in the UK. Just enter the code FPOCT0809. If, you know, you live in the UK. And a couple of you do! For us Americans with non-standard calf sizes, we’ll just have to envy our more fortunate British friends.
BUT – on to the porn!
I have three pretty vintage-style shoes for you today.
It’s not a color I would traditionally choose, but for some reason, it really works for me. Also, I totally have a girl crush on Bettye Muller.
The next pair is also not a color that I would usually go for:
They also are very elegant & classic looking. And it’s hard to go wrong with Franco Sarto.
The third pair (as is often the case) is my favorite.
I love the heel (great for walking around), the detailed scrolling (and interesting – a logically named shoe!), and the color is just fantastic. And the bonus? They are affordable! (Only $50.) Also, free shipping if you live in the US.
In other shoe news, I am currently reading (in addition to Anna Karenina, which I only read on my lunch break at work, so it takes me a bit longer) Snow Flower & Secret Fan by Lisa See (link in my Good Reads on the left), and read all about foot binding today. That’s a different kind of shoe porn – more like foot snuff films. I still feel a bit nauseous. I mean, I knew about the binding, but not really EXACTLY how it was done. I think I could’ve gone the rest of my life without that knowledge. So – umm – don’t bind the feet of your daughters.
