Vegan Beauties

Ok, so you weren't a fan of the last shoes. Oh well, you won't stop me lusting after them! But I have something rather special up my sleeve this time. Cast your eye over these beauties: they're called Balance by Olsen Haus, and aren't they something special? I love the neon blue platform soles (they also come in neon yellow), although I would worry that the linen uppers would get filthy in our horrible weather.



And, even better, they're totally vegan! No longer need we lament the absence of beautiful non-leather shoes... Although they are £137 from Neon Collective so we might have to save up a bit! Balance are from the Spring O9 collection, but I love the Fall collection just as much - these Prague faux-suede shoe-boots are just as lovely! Although they've not popped up available on any of the UK ethical clothing websites just yet as far as I can see...

Perspex Heels?

Right. Ok, so it took me a little while to work out how to post the pictures I wanted without risking severe legal penalty by violating copyright laws. And goodness knows, on my dying laptop, I spent enough hours search for these pics, or at least for the origin of the shoes.



So. I think I might love these shoes. Which is bad, right? I mean, those are v high perspex heels and perspex uppers, with a black leather toe. But I think Sienna Miller carries them off with aplomb. (Actually, I think it's much worse than I may have led you to believe - I think I like her whole outfit here, with mismatched lace and leopard print peg-leg trousers. In an I-could-never-wear-it-but-she-totally-rocks-it kind of way.)



Of course, they probably cost an arm and a leg, and where would I wear them anyway? Can you imagine me tottering around the library in them? Oh, I'd like to do it, though, just for a day, to see the reaction...
