//// Purple party
Posted on | December 30, 2009 | 4 Comments
To be honest this was intended to be a Christmas post. It’s about my weakness for shoes and finding some great Christmas presents for me *ahum*.

These Castañer wedges were originally 109€ in Yoox. The brand is better known from their summer espadrille designs, but these wedges were first pair to really catch my eye.

And then they dropped the price to 69€. They are this perfect shade of blue-purple, I’m getting serious spiritual connotations from shades like this.

And then they sent me the code for free express shipping just before the Christmas. I was just not able to wait and see if they were about to send them to me free eventually — they had only one pair left in my size, after all. Despite of the promise, the express shipping failed to deliver them on 24th. The plush velvet makes the color even more deep and creates a great contrast with wedge coated with lacquered leather.

But I would be furious only if they were meant to someone else.
