I arrived home yesterday to find a notice in the mailbox I've received a package from abroad. I rushed to the post office, 10 minutes before closing time. Luckily it's only around the corner to pick up my new vegan sandals from Mohop.
I've been coveting them since spring when I blogged about them:
Today I covet
Mr. C who knows me all to well waited for me at home to take pictures of me as I hastened to unwrap the package and started putting them on, experimenting with various strings and techniques.

| today's choice of ribbon and tying technique |
The whole idea with these shoes is to use a variety of strings, loop them in any way imaginable to end up with like a gazillion options. The shoes came with 9 pairs of strings and several wooden hoops as well as some basic tying technique instructions. Pretty neat.

We went for a walk late in the evening and I just had to wear my new sandals. They're confortable and easy to walk in. I'm happy.
How cool are these sandals??? I have never heard of them and what a nifty idea! Thanks for popping by my blog this morning!
ReplyDeleteand vegan too :-) Enjoy the blog hop!
DeleteWow. I would spend the whole day trying different arrangements. What fun! I didn't catch your previous post, just read it now. Now I want to see the movie In Her Shoes :).
ReplyDeleteSusan, I'm off to the city tomorrow to try them out properly ;-)
DeleteThose are adorable and so fun. I love that you can switch the ribbons out to match your outfit. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my blog today. Hope you're having a wonderful weekend
And a wonderful weekend to you too. Enjoy the bead soup party!
DeleteWhat sweet tooties you have,and the legs aren't bad either! BTW very girly and femine,love the different ribbons especially the turquoise...have fun.Ida
ReplyDeleteida, big smiles :-D that's all I'm saying....
DeleteSo instead of one pair of shoes, you got nine or more. Now how cool is that!
ReplyDeleteThey look really cute on your feet and are definitely age-appropriate!
come Monday I'll be heading straight to my regular fabric store to buy more ribbons ;-P well actually I have got some more in my stash, so I'll experiment with those first. It's a lot of fun!
DeleteHow fun! I didn't know that something like this existed!
ReplyDeleteKelly it would seem I have a knack to sniff out stuff like this and then of course I have to have it ;-)
DeleteThose are really fun. There is a shoe place in our area, not too far, with the same idea, except the soles are wood and maybe higher. I loved to have one but don't do sandals a lot because of my work. I love yours...so versatile! xx
ReplyDeleteIt's quite possible it's the same brand, because the started with wedges made from solid wood block. I have enough wedges as it is and as much as I'd love love to own a pair of mahogany wedges I went with flats because I needed a new pair and lickily I work in a super casual environment.
DeleteHope you are enjoying those new shoes. Definitely an attention-grabber and look so cute on you!
ReplyDeleteSanda thanks so much :-) the shoes are comfy and cute
DeleteGreat blog.Thank you Love and Hugs Tanya
