Atacoma

I've already mentioned my love for Acne's Atacoma wedge when they popped up on Alexa Chung a little while ago. Now they are up on the website and the detail shots make me lust after them even more. On closer inspection, the arch angle isn't too insanely high at all (this is a v good thing!). I would kill for the babies. I justify my "need" by the fact that I really struggle to wear proper heels (because of my problem feet - they are the bane of my existence) but a wedge gives me the stability and support I so need.

I absolutely died when I saw them on Alexa Chung - particularly love how they are softened by the brown socks (gives them a casual, almost childlike feel)

They also come in a deliciously soft cloudy blue - its amazing how colour and fabric can totally change the look and impact of a shoe. These would be heavenly with bleached out denim, or a creamy toned outfit for summer.

LOVE the herman munster comment. you are gold.

Re: Helter Skelters, I cant remember off the top of my head, but I think they were about $290ish? and worth every penny!!!! They fit amazingly, and stay on really well (unlike bigger/heavier frames)

ah i want those shoes so so badly! they work out to be around just over $700 NZD however and i don't really think acne is worth that.
