I'm exaggerating a bit. It wasn't very traumatic.
I mean, don't get me wrong. I love my Melissa shoes. I have 2 pairs of flats. One is the see through yellow ones, that still surprisingly smell of bubblegum even though I've worn them a gazillion times. And the other pair are the turquoise triple strap flats by Vivienne Westwood for Melissa. When I first bought the yellow ones, I thought they were the comfiest pair of ballet flats I owned..which is true to some extent. But I put them to the real test when I was in London in June, and my 2 friends came to visit. I've never walked so much in my life. But I came home with 3 blisters on each foot, and now my feet look like an 80 year olds'.
Ahhh..the things we do for shoes. Melissa, don't get me wrong, I was only venting and I still love you.
Anyway, despite that, I'm still going gaga over Melissa's new range for A/W 09. I could imagine the flocked shoes feeling like the sandy lion stickers we used to get when we were 6 and innocent. The colours vary from tan, black, grey to pink, purple, and teal.
I love the concealed wedge. But what I love even more are the flats with the bow pasta (I believe it's called farfalle..?).
And the brogues....oh the brogues.... I don't think I could have enough brogues. I'm going to have to restrain myself next time I "accidentally" bump into them on asos.

The pink wedges with the giant bow.
Must. Have. Now.
I guess I'll brave blisters for them, girls!
I want the black wedges with the bow! These could replace my much, much, much loved black suede wedges that died this year. (Well, the third pair died. I can't find anymore!)
the brogues are heart-stoppingly amazing.
Cool shoes!!

I'm like you; there can never be too many pairs of brogues. EVER.
I used to not like these shoes at all, but oh god, now I want them all.

A bunch of Melissa shoes are on sale at Shoplarousse.com. Definitely worth checking out. They ship internationally too.
Love the farfalle ones, especially in grey. A grown up version of the bow.
Thanks for sharing.
These are great shoes. I love the teal flats and the pink heels, The bows are great touches, especially the farfalle shaped ones. They make me hungry and want to go shoe shopping at the same time!

i still need to purchase my first pair of brogues!! love the tan ones!
well ihave three pairs but wearing them with socks is gonna spare you the blisters ;)
I've got a pair of last seasons flocked ultragirl wedge and it has a lining inside too so thankfully it was less blister inducing. Also they look really good with tights so that extra layer also helps.
I also have the Herchovitch brogues and these have no lining so I have to wear them with thin trouser socks or tights.
I love love the farfalle bows too. The last time I checked they were only on the Brasilian website!
