my new obsession...John Fluevog shoes

I've always loved shoes... and bags... but that's not gonna be in this blog, bags that is. 
My Fluevog love has been reawaken this year since I first stumbled upon them in 2005.  This month alone I've purchased 3 Fluevogs - I swear it's an addiction. I can't help myself, it's the quality and most importantly the feel of the shoes.  I'm not good in heels, any kind of heel but with Fluevog's I am walking on air.  The leather feels supple and encourages me to 'creative up' my wardrobe to showoff my shoes. 


Immortal Perfection - Audrey
 My first pair Immortal Perfection - Audrey in Gray - great for the summer since they have vents (hole cut outs in the leather) in them.  Looks great paired with shorts and skirts.  I can't wait to wear them with some skinny jeans in the Fall.  These have a 2.25" heel and I can walk just fine in them - which is a total surprise since I'm so clumsy in heels. Only thing that I feel I need to do is to take them to the cobbler and have some rubber added to the sole so that it feels that it's not so 'slippy' since the sole is wooden.  Hopefully, this will also prolong the life of the shoe as well.  Only problem is that will cover the messages on the soles, this one says "inner beauty never fades".  Loves these lil' messages. So cute and inspiring.

2nd Pair is Expectations - Trust in Red - these are also great for summer time wearin' due to the vents in them.  You can wear them with socks or no socks.  So comfy. Pairs well with shorts and capris.  I'm gonna wear them with a dress this weekend! This also has a wooden sole so I may bring this to a cobbler as well.  The message on this shoe is "exceeds expectations". 


Expectations - Trust
I've purchased these two pairs in the NYC store on Mulberry.  I used to work around the neighborhood and it was nice going back to my old stomping grounds.  I should get a job there so that I can get an employee discount  ^-^  

My 3rd pair came in the mail from Denver, CO.  The Rules Low - Patti in black, it included stickers, a postcard, a newsletter, a plastic shoehorn and a lil' note which was so nice.  I love getting things in the mail where they take the time to send you a little thank you note. Thanks Denver store! You guys are sweet!  I tried them on last night without socks and they felt so good.  I'll be rockin' these bad boys in the Fall! The soles on these are rubber, so no message. The heels on these are 2.5".



The Rules Low - Patti
 I need to stay away from their website.  These shoes are getting me in trouble... I want to visit each city that has a Fluevog store so that I can purchase a Fluevog from each one. 
Did I mention they also sell bags...
