This shoe porn is in honor of two wonderful men. Brian & Fredo. Both awesome. Both witty. Both obsessed with Fluevogs.
Next week, we’ll be all about spring trends, but today, we’re all Fluevogs, all the time. (Also, if you wanted to get me a birthday present, had a couple hundred to spare, and were stumped – any of these would do. Size 6, please!)
Also, because the men are frequently left out in these posts, I am doing a sampling of men’s shoes, too! Woo!
I don’t generally have a lot to say about men’s shoes. These are nice, though. Really sharp and professional looking. Not at all lounge lizardy or pimplike.
I think these are great. I love the blue, even though you wouldn’t see it ever. I like the detailed patterns.
These are great. Conservative & dressy, without being stuffy. Also, shiny! (I like shiny.)
Again, shiny! Also red. I have (apparently) moved on from my winter purple shoe obsession into a red shoe obsession. I am wearing red shoes as I type! I bought more red shoes last weekend! Yay for red shoes! Also, I love the thicker heel, the criss-cross straps & the threaded detail.
These are so pretty! The buckles! The black & red toes & heels. The pattern. (The red!) I would wear these every day. Almost. Because I would also need to have a special day for the next ones.
On facebook yesterday, I declared these boots to be the new loves of my life. I cannot even tell you how much I want these. I don’t know where I would wear them, but I would. A lot. They are so soft with shiny buttons. Also, they are red. I need these. They would complete me.
So, shoe readers, thoughts? Love them? Hate them? Need my address to send me a pair? Just bought a pair of shoes that you’re dying to show off to the internet? Let me know!

I never get tired of looking at shoes!

In the end, I opted not for the super fantastic heels (I know, what?!?) and ordered these super cute, super pink, super on sale loafers. I really love those Brevas, though, and would definitely go for those, too, if a couple hundred bucks fell out of the sky.

however, if I helped contribute to the purchase of a pair of shoes, that does make me incredibly happy. I feel so validated right now.

I really love my Fluevogs. I have six pair at the moment and need more. Two pair date from the nineties and I still rock them because they’re amazeballs. I’ll do a response post on my blog in just a moment. 😀

February 8, 2011 - 1:58 pm ·The Fluevog was my first real shoe lust and purchase. This was back in the late ’80s when all they were doing was super-pointy roach killers. I wore those shoes into shreds. I had no idea the shoes they were doing these days were so beautiful. Those boots are amazing!

February 13, 2011 - 7:26 pm ·I gasped so many times as I scrolled down this page I sound like I’m having a private moment. Like The Devil’s Starchy Fingers, I also had no idea their shoes had come this far. I want to put that second pair on my husband so badly. And those men’s boots, too. I don’t think I have a chance, but a girl can dream.
