Shoe Bakery

A couple of weeks ago I saw a picture of a pair of really delicious shoes on Kizzy's blog The Dainty Dolls House. I decided to look into this a bit more, and found something called the Shoe Bakery. This is a shoe brand created through Chris Campbell's love for shoes and sweets. Putting these two together gives you shoes that look like desserts! I literally want to EAT these shoes!!! All products from Shoe Bakery are hand made, and they also create custom one of a kind designs to fit each customer's needs. If you see a pair of their shoes that doesn't exist in the web shop anymore, they can also make you a copy of the pair you're drooling over. And drool you will...

Deichmann Shoes!

I've started working on an upcoming event with the fabulous Mrs Murphy, and thanks to the fact that she pays me in gift certificates at Deichmann, I now have new shoes! At least one pair of black stilettos should be in every woman's (and some men's) shoe-wardrobe, so I picked a pair in a black suede-looking material with black crystals around the back and down the heels. They have a bit of a platform in the front, which makes them easier to walk in, since they're actually not as high as the heel might indicate. A nice illusion... They are really comfortable, and I look forward to take them out to a party! And here they are!

Alexander Siradekian S/S 2015

When Alexander Siradekian designs his shoes, he strives to emphasize the beauty of the female foot and adorn it with graceful lines, but at the same time not forgetting about comfort and convenience. For his S/S 2015 collection Siradekian took inspiration from Vivaldi's four violin concertos Four Seasons. The colors of the shoes remind me of fresh green leaves, lilacs, rhododendron and other flowers, and they are all adorned with Siradekian's signature tassel-tail. Here are a few examples from the collection. To see them all, go here!

12 Shoes For 12 Lovers

Artist Sebastian Errazuriz has teamed up with shoe company Melissa to create what he calls 12 Shoes For 12 Lovers. Sebastian has designed each of the twelve high heeled shoes to reflect each of his twelve ex lovers. The names he has given the shoes are not the real names of his exes, but all shoes come with a short anecdote of the girl each shoe is dedicated to. And here are the shoes!

One Year Older...

On August 16th I turned 23 - for the tenth time! It's amazing how that number never changes! Anyway... The people I live with - Fanny and Michael - said I had to have a party, and so I obliged...

I wore a vintage, black wiggle dress from the 50s, and my Gianmarco Lorenzi stilettos from Dondoca.

As usual at Swedish parties everybody gathered in the kitchen, which filled up quite fast. I was going to take lots of pictures, but since it got so crowded in there, no one could move that much, and the pictures would just have looked messy. I did manage to snap a photo of the party's guest of honor though - Molly - who of course got to sit in the best chair!

Although I had told everyone they definitely didn't have to give me presents, they all came bearing gifts! Marie Antoinette and Tifa gave me flowers and candy. Fellow burlesque dancer Ruby Luscious and her gorgeous man Albin brought me goodies from the Chocolate Factory and a white, soap-like heart from Lush that you're supposed to rub on your skin, to give it a soft, shimmering look. Great for burlesque performing! From Magdalena I got a beautiful pocket mirror she had bought in St. Petersburg, and from corset maker Karin of Viola Lahger, a lovely pearl and rhinestone set hair comb! And then we also have the gift I got from Fanny and Michael...

Fanny just got a scooter drivers license, but so far I haven't been able to go cruising with her, because I didn't have a helmet. So a helmet is what they got me! And then Michael spray painted it with the help of a piece of lace fabric. So now I have my own, custom made lace-helmet!

I love it!!! Three days later I took my first ride with Fanny, when she came and picked me up from a photo shoot. Sweet! We're planning to take a longer trip soon, so look out on the roads people!!!

Gianmarco Lorenzi Shoes

Here we go again! I bought new shoes. Oops... But when I did my Shoes!!! post a while ago, and discovered these darlings were on sale on Dondoca's web site, I pretty much told you I would have to get them, so I guess this wasn't really a surprise... Besides, I hadn't gotten new shoes since before Christmas last year, so it felt about time I added to my "little" family of foot-holders. And here they are:

They go by the name The Butterfly Sandal and are made in leather and lacquer by Italian shoe designer Gianmarco Lorenzi. They are from his S/S 2012 collection, so there aren't many left to buy - if you can find them at all - which made me even happier to be able to get my hands - or feet - on a pair in my size!

Even though the heel is 4.7 inches (12,5 centimeters) they're actually really comfortable to walk in. There is a hidden 0.4 inch (1 centimeter) platform, and the front of the shoes is a bit cushioned on the inside. I love the fact that they have straps, which holds my feet still in the shoes and prevents chafing. I really fell for the vintage design in that nude color - which makes your legs look longer - together with the modern purple and neonish pink/red details. Now I just need the perfect event to wear them to!

As I said, there are only a few ones left on Dondoca's web site. So if you feel you might need a pair, this is where I found mine!

Shoes!!!

No, I have not bought new shoes! Not this time... This shoe-post will be about shoes I wish I had though... So, without further notice; here are my favorite shoes for spring/summer 2013!

And lastly, a pair of Gianmarco Lorenzi sandals I've been ogling for quite some time since I discovered them in Dondoca's web shop. Right now Dondoca has lowered the prices on some items - including these shoes!!! Goddammit... Guess I need to make room for another pair of foot-holders then...

Outfit Post

Etsy is a dangerous place! It steals my money over and over again. This is what I got in return for some money-loss this time...

...A rushed, black organza dress from the 50s! The bodice is boned, and the skirt has a stiff linen/horsehair lining and a metal hoop that makes the skirt stand out a bit. I love how the top layer is draped! Found it on Crush Vintage's Etsy page.

And then we have the shoes!!! I had been looking for the perfect red glitter stilettos for some time, so I was pretty darn satisfied when I walked past a shoe store and saw these sparkle through the window! As you can see they they followed me home...
