Shoe Porn: Almost Famous Flower Wedges
I've ummed and aaahed over whether or not I should write about these grey suede wedges. They're £112 from Almost Famous - way more than I've ever spent on a pair of shoes. But now that I've seen them in the flesh, I just can't stop thinking about them.
The heels are such a lovely shape. The curve is one thing, but the extra strap detail is really different. Usually flowers on shoes are crap - they turn perfectly nice shoes into shoes you wear at a wedding. Maybe it's the lovely muted colour, or the super soft fabric (it is super soft, I found myself stroking).
The thing that's making me forget that I have rent to pay and greens to eat is that they're easy to walk in. The platform isn't too high. You could wear these all day and be happy. Happy in your shiny, gorgeous, cost too much money, fabulous shoes.
Oh my, they're beautiful, and would go perfectly with the dress I'm planning to wear to a wedding at a French Chateau in August....if only I wasn't about to be made redundant *sad face*
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful. I'll try and put you off them.
ReplyDeletePractically, the colour will mark easily. Also you can't wear them more than once or twice as everyone will remember them and say 'You wore those to x event.'
If they weigh on your mind that much, I'm sure you'll find a way to fund them.
I'm working on the theory that no shoes will have heels by 2015. They really do seem to be an endangered species in footwear...
ReplyDeleteOh my god, I want I want I want :(
ReplyDeleteI just wandered onto this post by accident, fell in love with these, googled them to see if they were second hand on Ebay anywhere and they aren't but they are on SALE, half-price on the Almost Famous website right now. Woo!
