Shoes and Cake



A funny little blurb about our metalic pony skin wedge from ShoesandCake.com


Hello, winter. I see you sneaking up around the corner. Oh sure, the calendar might read August, but outside (in London) it’s grey with a capital miserable.
The best thing about winter is boots, and these new ones from Finsk are cracking. The splops of gold on ponyskin (not REAL ponies, yeah?) contrasting with black and brown wood is just the slightly mental side of animal print that trend-peddlers are talking about for aw11.
I took a walk in the aw10 Finsk boots, and I can say that despite looking quite challenging, they are in fact easy to walk in, and perfectly balanced. That is what you pay for in a 550 quid shoe – engineering perfection and considered design. Well, I say in a 550 quid shoe, but not in all. In fact, Julia Lundsten’s designs feel more comfortable from some very big name designer kicks that I’ve worn in my time.
No wonder Christian Louboutin rates her so highly.
