Oh wow how absolutely cool! These super funky vegan peep toe wedges from TUK are so wonderfully starry!
If you’re into the whole “new retro” movement, you’ll love these. They have it all – stars, contrasting nautical star closures, a good-sized wedge and a bow. Black and red is a very joyous colour combo and I really really like the star print (as you may have gathered).
To be honest, you’ll need to work quite hard to move these away from a full on goth / alternative rocker look, but on the other hand, they’d make even the simplest black dress into a full on statement outfit.
I found these on a site called eveninglady.co.uk, which seems to have plenty of sexy alternative / burlesque / tasteful stripper vegan shoes.
Well, someone had better pinch me, cause I’m pretty sure I’ve gone to shoe-dream heaven!
I know these are nautical and I already wrote about quite a few nautical shoes this week. I also know they are by Miss L Fire and on Office shoes, which also featured quite heavily this week. But, I mean, look at these!
Totally digging the gold trip and the rosette, plus red and white stripes are always fun.
Seriously, just looking at these absolutely lovely peep toe wedges has been getting me all excited in so many ways. The rosette comes off, if you so choose, just like the flower in the other Miss L Fire wedges I wrote about yesterday. I so totally want these as well. Now I need to decide whether I can afford to buy both. Meanwhile, I will continue to drool over both.
These also come in black and you can get them from, yes, Office.
Tis the season to be…nautical. Apparently!
Actually, who am I kidding? Tis always the season to be nautical.
These fluffy, summery wedges are by Iron Fist, who usually make somewhat darker-edges shoes for the psychobilly minded. These are far more retro-inspired. Very 50s and pin up.
My friend found them and posted the link on Facebook, so obviously I had to immediately steal them for this blog.
So now you know and can buy a pair too. But if you see a woman called Virginia wearing them, remember she found them first!
You can get these from Office.
Let’s face it – nobody does vegan pin up heels quite like TUK. They just seem to consistently deliver hot, perfectly wearable shoes. These beautiful red pin up heels are a very fine example of the above.
A mad fashion designer once told me that red shoes are notorious for being uncomfortable, but you wear them anyway.
I’ve had my share of uncomfortable red shoes, but the one pair of really gorgeous but comfortable red pin up heels I have are made by TUK. I’m inclined to believe these new ones are comfortable too.
The heels are big enough to make you extra tall, but the platform is wide enough to feel stable and the strap will hold you in place for even more support. That aside, look at how incredibly hot they are!
You can get these from the TUK website directly.
They also come in black.
While digging through the Marks & Spencer site, I also found these. You never know when you might need a simple slingback summery wedge to complete a look, but they sure do come in handy every once in a while.
These make a cheap, understated option that may not be the sexiest on the market (see the recent Schuh take on the idea for comparison), but certainly does the trick. Like the vast majority of the M&S shoes, these have a slight mumsy feel to them, rather than an outright vampy, femme fatale thing, but we are dealing with a retro look here, so that is not entirely unwelcome.
At least you know they’ll be reasonably well made for that price and comfortable enough to walk or dance in.
You can get these from the Marks & Spencer site.
The summer of 70s love is here again! Well, a 21st century version, anyway.
Check out these huge platform heels by Schuh’s own brand. I know I keep writing about their shoes, but I do love that they don’t feel the need to stick leather linings in otherwise vegan shoes, so there’s always a good, easy choice on their site.
These are called “capri knot platform sandals” and are pretty damn outrageous. The platforms are absolutely HUGE! 13cm, apparently. They also have cute zips in the back.
You can get these from Schuh.
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
