The Feather Game Thursday, August 14, 2008 9:24 PM

Feather fascinators have been popping up here and there over the last year, and I have thoroughly enjoyed seeing them on the pretty heads of bloggers such as dreamecho and Susie Bubble. However, I wanted something a little more subtle for myself so when I saw these feather adorned flats at Urban Outfitters I knew they had to come home with me.

On a different note, the harder I try to save money, the more I end up spending. Maybe I should try a little reverse psychology and tell myself to spend, spend, spend. Doubtful it'll work though! Sometime next week I'll post today's haul from Value Village.

Those are very sweet shoes. Will you do an outfit post with them?

Of course...as soon as I figure out what to wear with them!

They're so pretty! Perfect for the black/gray outfits.

oh my dear, they are perfect. The feathers are so cute. Too bad that I couldn't find them online so that I asked my dad to brind them for me.

Oh dear, you're going to get me into trouble! Those shoes are stunning (and I really like the perspective in the first photo). I can't buy any more whimsical flats at the moment though, I just can not!

Those shoes have the perfect combination of casual yet elegant. Nice find!

I can't quite remember how I stumbled on your blog, but I'm glad I'm here. :)

I tried looking for them too, when I was writing out this post. Why don't you show him these pictures or where you thinking of ordering them and having them shipped to an US address?

I'm having the same problem with saving =P Well I told myself no more shopping after tax-free weekend (we shall see if I keep my word).

fruchtzwerg | 2008-08-16 04:45 AM | Reply

that would be an idea. I will ask my dad if he could look for them. Thanks!

They're made by "fairy tales are true" and come in blue as well. The blue ones have a peacock feather instead. I believe they have half sizes because I saw one marked 7.5. hope that helps! And if you want a more clear picture, I can take one for you.

I saw these shoes in person today. Very cute indeed.

oh my dear. reverse psychology and shopping don't and cannot mix. i've tried it and i ended up spending more

I've come to the same conclusion :)

I do love these. Subtle but still very noticeable.
