Buy Two, Be Worry Free

The silver pumps from Finsk fall 2010.

I am the type of person who knows what I like, and when I find a fashion item that I really, really like, I often buy two. This doesn’t mean I buy two of everything, my system usually applies to basic items, or things I know I’ll wear to death. Previous examples have included Banana Republic white t-shirts, American Apparel lace underwear (although that did cause me some problems), Uniqlo jeans, and COS shirts. My latest double-acquisition, is a pair of Finsk pumps.

The amazing thing about these shoes is that they are cut asymmetrically.

To be honest, this isn’t the first time I’ve bought two pairs of the same Finsk shoe in different colours, I’ve actually got a pair of sandals and a pair of peep toe wedges that I have in double (and there was a third pair of those wedges bought for my Mom.) When I was in London in April, I ordered two pairs of the Finsk asymmetrical pump, one in pewter and one in a dark gold colour, because I knew it was the perfect fall shoe.

This photo shows the gold pair, which, due to my poor photography, doesn't look that different to the silver.

The Finsk brand works two ways for me, there are the crazy, amazing shoes that I wear for impact. But the other reason I fell in love with Finsk, is because she makes amazing shoes that are extremely comfortable. Most people say it is impossible to wear a 5 inch heel that is comfortable, but I have to disagree. Julia Lundsten, the designer behind Finsk, has all these lovely little tricks that make her shoes comfortable. Which is why for my fall Finsk order, I decided to go practical, and buy some shoes that I would be able to wear to work, and during my day to day life.

Believe it or not, these wedge boots are extremely comfortable.

I love the detail on the heel.

The two pairs pumps arrived yesterday, along with this fantastic over-the-knee wedge boot. Things like this make me excited for the fall and winter!

Be jealous: my Finsk collection is AMAZING.

    you made a mistake in that you wrote “collection” when you meant to write “store”…
    it is quite amazing. i hope you have gorgeous shelves in your new home so you can blow all your shoes kisses goodnight…

    How do you get your hands on these shoes?! Ever since you blogged about them a million years ago I've been searching for a way to buy them. They're so architectural and fantastic.

    Haha, I just spent 5 minutes trying to find the mistake…It is not a store, I'd never sell them.

    I'll ask Julia, and call Gravity Pope, beg them to carry the brand! Then we can all have Finsks!

    Your Finsk collection is drool-worthy. I own five pairs of Chie Mihara but this takes the word “collection” to another level.
