In the Land of LeLutka

I was able to cash in a little overtime for a day trip to our second destination, the Island Nation of LeLutka, best known for its excellent take on all aspects of fashion... be it Skin, Hair, Clothing, Accessories... and because this IS about Shoe Fair... the Shoes. Passport stamped it was off for a stroll in these brand new and completely gorgeous K.I.A. Wedges. One of a number of very eye catching wedges to be found at the Fair, LeLutka does not disappoint with the realism and style of their latest release. I adore the softly brushed suede look, with an attractive incorporated wedge, that gives the appearance of a wrapped shoe with a cone shaped wooden heel. A giant wooden grommet adorns the upper, a real nod to current trends for interesting natural accents in accessories. Small details like the back zipper, lelutka signature label tag sewn between layers of suede, and slightly worn soles are a treat to the eyes for those of us that like to cam in close and appreciate authenticity.

The shoes themselves come in an array of luxurious shades, from muted neutrals to lush tropical inspired hues. While settling on a single pair is a hard task for the best of us, you can be assured that whatever you choose you will love wearing the K.I.A. shoes, even a very neutral tone like 'Retail' a sweet sandy beige (not shown) will work with a multitude of color choices. My personal fave, the completely irresistible 'Olive' (pictured), surprisingly green with a healthy undertone of teal, they have an almost iridescent feel... like jewelled insect wings. I couldn't take them off. The newly designed user HUD is a thing of beauty too, very simple design, very intuitive... well done! You won't regret visiting the LeLutka booth at the 2011 Shoe Fair, the buzz is well earned... and the shoes are fashionably fantastic.
