It's a FLUEVOG day......

I swear I have had these for AGES and only worn the boots once so far - can't QUITE find the right outfit - and haven't worn the others at all yet but since there is only one place in Australia to buy the fabulous Fluevog shoes, when you like stuff that season you just HAVE to buy up BIG!

These are the sexy calf length corset boots, SOOOOOO comfy....

For the piece de resistence...aaaaannnndddd....I so can't even walk in these but WHO cares! I've ordered a suit from Anton's to be tailor made in a Sage Green Wool/Silk blend and they will look FAB with it...

What is SO fabulous about these shoes is that they are part hand made and in Portugal, not in Asia and they are SERIOUSLY comfortable, the last is SOOOO well constructed!

They cost $300 upward but if you are a person who really bashes their shoes around they are going to last you forever - MUCH less $ than Manolo's and MUCH higher quality. You can get them at Sole Devotion that now has TWO stores in Melbourne (one in Greville St Prahran and one in Degraves St in Melbourne CBD) and NOWHERE ELSE in Australia! The Gals at Sole Devotion are SOOO the coolest and the BEST so worth a visit to check out all their wonderousness. Just don't buy the Black Body Parts shoes I am hanging out for that are coming in this Summer in my size, or else!!

Seems like a lot of consumerism for a post not long after a 'Go Green' one BUT I think TOTALLY justified. I really only buy twice a year and I don't buy any other shoes, I'm of the philosophy that if you buy well made items you will be disposing of less (& purchasing less too). I have 8 pairs of shoes in total and 7 are Fluevogs and really, they become a collectors item and you will ALWAYS be admired* Did I justify my Shoe shopping enough????? :-)

Blessings, a stuck at home sniffling, KittyB
