Me FINSK.

252-98 LIGHT GREY BLACK

I really need to cut back on my intense shoe obsessions that pop up more often than I would like. But this needed to be posted :)

The lovely Danell of FINSK showed me their amazing AW10 lookbook that I (of course) immediately went gaga all over. Sure, they aren't your stereotypical pretty shoe - more and more, I find I steer clear of predictable/ordinary/just-pleasing shoes. My logic is that if you have one amazing pair of shoes, they make up most of your outfit and you spend less money (yeah... who am I kidding :D)

Having said that - predictable/ordinary/just-pleasing shoes is everything that FINSK isn't. They've been known for their awesome almost-architectural shapes and geometric combinations of cuts and colours... and of course, the famous cut-out heel. So if you don't want to go all out with Nina Ricci's, I guess FINSK is the way to go :) - understatement to say that I'm in love with the weird-coolness of this amazing eye-catcher.

Check out more HERE.

But I'm not finishing there! I feel like I'm just swamping you guys with all these pretty things I like, so I'm going to end this post with a good old fashioned feel-good happy photo of me and three of my favourite people in the world, taken with Jesse's awesome 'Diana'.


How amazing is it!! Sadly I look slightly terrible :) But hey. It's the photo that's cool.

And here's a shoutout to Imogen who passed on a lovely blog award :) So here's 5 random facts about myself:
  1. I love almonds and shoes (no surprises there)
  2. I cannot stand people touching zits - I gag
  3. I have a Japanese doll that's been sitting on my desk for 3 years and I still don't know where it came from
  4. My friends laugh the minute I start telling a story
  5. I want to do/be to many things next year (after school)
And more passings on: The KATmosphere, Oh dear it's Liana, Magpie Girl, Salad of my Life.

Have an amazing weekend, beautiful people!

*love*

Oh! Thanks for your comment, I love your blog too!
I love those shoes!

In my blog, I ask to the people how tall are they... but I not write in English... (yes, I must practise English urgently) if you want to participate just tell your height, if you are high among your friends and if your parents are tall or not :)
Sorry for my horrible English!

im not a huge fan of finsk but its probably just me being rebel against my country:D never been a true finn :D i do love their idea - to make shoes that stand out of the ground. u have to be bold to wear those i think! :))
