New York City – vegan designer shoe capital of the world? Well, it would certainly seem so, as I just discovered yet another proudly vegan, eco-friendly, ethical shoe company that hails from there.
Just feast your eyes on these hot hot boots from the super stylish Cri de Coeur. These may come from NY, but they wouldn’t shame any Italian designer showing on the Milan fashion week catwalk.
They feature classic lines, trendy open toe and sides which is very very now, plus they are handmade, carbon neutral and totally feminine and sexy.
Pair these with a classically cut little black dress and some Gucci sunglasses and you’re laughing. Celebrities, get your wallets!
You (or your personal stylist) can get these from Amazon.com
Well, it’s been a while since the last time I wrote about Olsen Haus shoes and their new spring line is out, so now I have an excuse to write about them again. So here we have a gorgeous pair of proper designer sandals – simple, classic and yet unique and exciting at the same time. I like that they make flat shoes too and that they are just as hot as their heeled shoes.
No wonder so many celebs wear their shoes – their designs are just so… slick and clean.
You can get these neat vegan sandals from Olsen Haus.
More rain boot fun! This time, though, they’re by Melissa shoes and designed by Vivienne Westwood. Sure, they cost more than your average wellie, but they’re, you know, Vivienne Westwood, so will make you instantly 10 times cooler.
These are cute cute cute with their little side buttons that make them fit in with the military-style look while simultaneously also being young, funky and waterproof. I’m quite charmed by the blue colour, I must say.
If you were going to wear one pair of rain boots this year and look incredibly hip and fashionable nonetheless then these are definitely the ones. Pretty pretty but remember that Melissas run a size small.
I found these here.
How totally awesome are these? Grey with tan may not be the obvious choice but these seem to make it work. I like the whole casual, alternative yet ultra hip and stylish feel these have. The strappy bits are just a tiny bit kinky, too, but totally not in an overt way.
I gather this is Gwen Stefani’s label and I do like her style. Apparently it’s huge in the Far East, which is hardly surprising with a name like that and a look like that which is indeed very Japanese-inspired.
I’ve tagged them with “crazy shoes”, but mostly because one of the other colour combinations they come in is fairly crazy. You can get that one elsewhere and also a black / brown version which is also very cool. The black and the grey versions are very respectable, I find.
You can get these particular grey vegan boots from Zappos
Lovely, lovely boots from your friendly, ultra-modern vegan designers at Olsen Haus.
They have the coolest shape and the paint splash design makes them look all funky and arty. You know… Like you just stepped out of your art studio to go dance all night at NY’s hottest new club. That kind of thing.
They come in black as well, of course, which would also make you stand out in a crowd but I do so like the red. I guess black with a white paint splash is a bit more versatile, though.
These are really lovely boots. $235 is quite a lot, but at least these actually look like proper designer shoes. So if you want to share the joy of spending a significant part of your monthly income of shoes just like your leather-wearing buddies, then here’s a good opportunity.
You can get these from the Olsen haus site.

Oh I do like these. The are called “Blondie”, so I am wondering whether they’re inspired by THE Blondie. It could well be, cause they are sexy but not in a slutty way and have that hot patent (some kind of more enviro-friendly PVC is it?) patch mixed in with the grey suede-like thing.
The heel looks like a reasonable height too, but definitely sexy.
At $265 they may be a bit steep for some, but boy are they hot…
I could talk all day about these boots, really, but I’m not going to. I’m just going to look at them instead and think of where I can get $265 from. If anyone from Olsen Haus is reading, I write even better reviews of shoes that I own
I’m not sure where you can get these particular vegan suede boots from, but you can see them on the Olsen Haus website where you can find store locators or email for more info.
