The most beautiful clothes that can dress a woman are  the arms of the man she loves. But for those who haven’t had the fortune of finding this happiness, I am there.

On my quest to find slightly odd, well-crafted, beautiful and comfortable shoes, I found my answer literally waiting for me in a dark corner at Amalga (well manicured Soho boutique for rich rocker types).  The shoes are from an Italian company called Marsell, apparently known for comfort and quality.  I like how they’re on-trend yet anonymous.  I also loved the super nice sales associates and custom made candy accessory to the purchase.

* Walkable Spring Shoes

Posted on April 5th, 2009 by iru. Filed under Shoes.


I love my new A Détacher sandals from Albertine.  I did about 2.5 miles in them today between the East and West Village.  They’re not Camper comfy, but  pretty darn good as far as sexy shoes go.  They’re well cushioned with a lot of support from the supple suede ankle ties.  All this and

they come in the loveliest warm yet utilitarian French gray.  Read: they work well with hard and soft edged styling.

Sorry, people.  I’m just obsessed with comfortable shoes these days.  I apologize in advance if this blog very slowly but very surely turn itself into the go-to source for all things orthopedic shoes.
