Les Chaussures d’été

“My shoes are special shoes for discerning feet” – Manolo Blahnik

I look forward to parading around town with these 3 pairs of shoes this summer.

Erin Templeton leather sandals with rope

I think I might be trading in my Havianas for my new favourite pair of sandals from Erin Templeton. Feels like a flip flop, but wears like a sophisticated Roman sandal with what was dubbed a candy cane or Dr. Seuss inspired rope by one sandal admirer.

Sky high vintage Vivienne Westwood brown leather pumps from London

My dear friend Jane from London recently sent me these beautiful brown vintage Vivienne Westwood pumps. I proudly inherited them at my own peril, since they arrived with a caveat from Jane that the heels were indeed vertigo inducing high. Walking any further than a block in these stilts, is like Bambi wobbling on ice.

Vintage Joan & David metallic silver pumps

Who could resist these vintage Joan & David metallic silver pumps? Straight out of the 80s, they are a pinch too narrow (which seems to be a common trend for Joan & David shoes), but I still plan to squeeze my tootsies in them, at least for a few toe numbing hours.
