…sweet merciful crap…
(Superfresh)

September 13 2010

This is a love story in two acts.  A story not of people, but of shoes.  Really freakin’ sweet shoes.

ACT I

Finsk Black Cutout Wedge via OAKNYC

ACT II:

You know…I really, really thought I had my shoe hoarding in check.  I really did.  Then things like this come up.

*sigh*

Call me crazy, but I really wasn’t feeling the original version of the second pair of shoes when I saw them paired with the P.E. clothes and panties in “Alex” Wang’s SS2010 collection:

Alexander Wang Spring 2010 Ready-to-Wear-1 Alexander Wang Spring 2010 Ready-to-Wear

iCan’t

…but now that I’ve seen them on an all white background, iMight.  Can’t say that I’ve met too many wedges that I didn’t like.

——–

And for the record, I love my Atacomas (GAWD KNOWS I DO…shouts out to Miss Sophia), but I would trade them in with NO QUALMS WHATSOEVER if I was getting that top pair in return.  I would throw in a kidney and 3 cats if necessary.

Yep.  I said it.

UPDATE: I can’t throw too much shade at Wang.  In fact, this just became a three act love story because of him.

ACT III:

Sure, people don’t “get” them and say they’re fug and can’t comprehend why anyone would want part of their heel missing (CLEARLY I’m down with that).  I’ll take it.  They’re the pugs of the flat black boot world and they need love too.  My love.

*DAMN*

    I LOVE the Finsk wedges. I saw them for the first time a few months ago when Bryanboy tweeted about them, but I couldn’t find them anywhere in the US. Did you know they are coming to Solestruck soon too? They’re also going to be carrying a line called Su Yoon that you might find interesting. Check it out:

    Those fucking boots at the bottom–I can’t either. Just waiting for some high street chain to come up with a (moderately acceptable) version I can somewhat afford.

    And yes, Trey gyrated his hips. Oh, did he gyrate. He also ripped his clothes off, brought a hysterical fan onstage to give her a sensual body massage, and simulated a really good finger fuck. One could be forgiven for forgetting he’s a recording artist. He certainly has the man ho act down pat.

    don’t worry. i’m sprung on those pugs too. soooooo good. no one else seems to be into them, though clearly the universe is on wang’s nuts in every other regard.
    also been in LOVE with those first ones since they came out with the original color combo last year. *sigh*. i wish i could try them someplace to justify whether or not i should plunk down the bananas amt of dough required to own them.

    I wanted those A Wang wedges like none other. And then I saw them too many places. They even got knocked off in China. And they started to get played out and now when I see them, I still get little stomach butterflies, buuuuut I just don’t want them anymore. That’s so sad when it happens.
