Day 82 - Visitors from America

Kittie has guests - very charming and stylish American guests.  Just breezing in from New York, these Cordovan Monk Straps in Ox Blood by shoemaker Alden are pictured following a nice cup of tea at Self Preservation on Collins Street. From the Alden website:  "Since 1884, the Alden Shoe Company has designed and manufactured classic gentlemen's footwear that represents America's tradition of old-school, custom shoemaking at its finest".  Indeed.
So as not to be completely upstaged, Kittie is wearing some stylish straps of her own.  These brown satin heels by Manolo Blahnik feature olive green leather heels and trim.  They are worn with Lyric by Amouage.

  1. Classic with classic. Can't go wrong, Kittie. These Blahniks are beautiful, of course, I love the colour.
