I’ve written about the Babycham Rockabilly Flash shoes before, but now Babycham have come up with a new design – the Rockabilly Flash Plaid! They’re totally neat, understated yet really quite funky. I love the plaid and denim combination, plus they also have a star-shaped upper eyelet, which is a pretty neat touch.
Once more, Babycham have managed to create shoes that are very “now” but are also pretty retro at the same time.
They look like comfortable shoes you could wear when you want to look funky and somewhat different but don’t want to go for a heel. The red, white and blue combination (especially with the hinted star) has a sort of all-American feel, too. Almost country & Western in a way, but without being too overtly American.
All in all, these are pretty damn funky.
You can get these from Schuh.
These simple but cute flat lace up pumps by Babycham are called “Rockabilly Flash”. I’m not quite sure why they’re called rockabilly. Maybe it’s because they sort of look a bit like bowling shoes or maybe they look like they’d be nice to have a dance in. Of course, it could all be a clever bit of marketing, but who cares? They’re pretty.
They are black and somewhat shiny with the perforated patent-effect look and have a slightly pointy toe and a white embroidered babycham logo on the back. I like the fact that the top eyelets for the laces are star-shaped and the colourful lining is a nice touch as well, though obviously less noticable when you’re wearing them.
These look wicked on. You could wear them instead of pilms or trainers and they’d fit right in but look slightly different at the same time. They come in this black colour or a slightly odd white with multi-coloured eyelets and a red embroidered logo.
Available (in the UK at least) exclusively from Schuh.
