current obsession

Vivienne Westwood has always been one of my all time favorites, but her Spring/Summer 2010 collaboration with Melissa is something I will not get over for a while. [The Brazilian shoe designer Melissa has some pretty crazy stuff going on already, including a collaboration with Zaha Hadid, the Ursula of Architecture.] As a devout leather lover, I was pleasantly surprised to see how much I fell in love with these oh so extremely plastic shoes:









The boots make complete sense to me; adorable rain boots like these are hard to come by and they were automatically placed in my "things to buy when i get my first paycheck" list. The Dragon Lady heels (from Spring 09) took me a while however. They seem to me as a real life version of Vivienne Westwood Barbie's favorite shoes, but still, if I had the opportunity to try them on I would do so in a heartbeat. I also get the feeling that would be surprisingly comfortable, being rubber and all, and as I imagine slipping my feet into these shoes I am thinking of all the outfit possibilities... and the obsession continues.

toodles,
