Maurie & Eve do it right..

Photobucket

I've been chomping at the bit trying to wait patiently for these babies. The Aussie version of those Balenciaga ankle harness boots. The Sam Edelman Zoe knockoffs are pretty, sure, but these Maurie & Eve Platinum Punk Wedge boots are just that little bit more. Kicker. I debated over which pair to get about two months ago and then quickly realised that I preferred the Maurie & Eve pair (so much more punk-rock) and would save about $200 AUD. Which could be spent on the infamous Ode To No One jacket p'haps? Or to use at Topshop in Bali. Yep, you heard me....Topshop in Bali. Where I'll be in December :)

If you're from Perth, Billie & Rose (all three stores: King St, Mt Lawley and Freo) will be getting the shoes some time this week. If not, try your luck at http://www.mycatwalk.com.au/. Free shipping and returns. Although these babies sold out within the hour. Eeep. Re-order, me thinks (and....confirmed by a friend who works in retail).

Cannot wait.....yum.

Great boots -I wish they were 3/4 inches higher though (I have a sad fetish for sky heights)
