Thanks to my new internet friend materfamilias, and her weekly My Shoes Wednesday feature, I've become enchanted with John Fluevog shoes. They are funky, whimsical, maybe just a little bit bratty (in a good way) and seem to be designed for the woman who knows her own mind.
These boots for example, are perfect for stomping away in a huff from the coffeehouse where your date has just declared that he always votes Republican, and thinks "Newt Gingrich is making a lot of sense these days."

way too cool! Not just the boots, but me being mentioned in a post -- and that on a blog that was mentioned by the Manolo!! Talk about degrees of separation: I'm practically a celebrity!
Oh, and the boots are very, very cool and I can think of a few Canadian stand-ins for Newt Gingrich--what a great scenario you've sketched to stage these little-bit-bratty wonders.
Oh, myyyy. Sassy. Miss J should have NEVER hit the link button, tho. So much temptation...
Love the boots--but Zappos has them mostly sold out except for a few sizes. But I was inspired and bought similar ones from La Canadienne. If you haven't tried L.C, you should--soooo comfortable but not quite as funky.
Yes, I didn't see that zappos was pretty well tapped out on sizes until after I posted the link. You can apparently still order directly from fluevog.com though. According to the zappos reviews, order a full size larger than your normal size.
Indeed, these are quite tempting!
Ooh, those La Canadienne's are nice too!
They are some sexy boots! Love em.
I have these in th eknee-high version. The crepe-soled heel is both unusual and far more comfortable than a typical heel! Fleuvog's are very well made - worth it even at full price. You can go quite stompy-funky, but they also have subtler styles(like this Operetta line)that will earn you an appreciative double take and are appropriate for work in an office, not just a record store!
I found my way here via Materfamilias, and I love what I'm seeing. These boots in particular sing! Some foot-issues have kept me from indulging my fancy for witty footwear, but I can't stop thinking about the shapes in this line. I may have to get a pair just to gaze upon, heel-height be damned!
