High Top, You're No Flop!

I'll get straight to the point. I do not believe in wearing trainers (or sneakers, whatever you choose to call them) anywhere outside of a gym or a park (and even then, only if you're actually exercising in a park). So, it came as a bit of a shock to me that I have been lusting over a pair of of black Isabel Marant high tops for the past month. The last time I wore high tops was when I went through a 'I can wear high tops with anything because I'm cool like that' phase and it ended badly with pair upon pair of my collection being donated to my local charity shop. They must have thought I had issues.

The beautiful pair that I have been drooling over have a concealed wedge, a tongue that's a little higher and more padded than you're average high top and contrasting fabrics/ colours on each pair. Could these have been made more perfect! (That was not a question!)

Anyway, these are the gems-

Now I know they look a bit, how do I put it, strange (?) at first but to give you an idea of what they look like on, look at the famous in them-

Petra Ecclestone

Beyonce

Alicia Keys

The down side? They are sold out pretty much everywhere! Aaaargh! Every store, every website and no thank you I shall not resort to ebay to score a pair (as tempting as this may be). So what's a Materialistic girl to do? Why dream and pray that somehow a pair is available somewhere, of course. Seriously though, I'm tres annoyed as I am desperate for a pair and can't find them anywhere. I don't even know the price tag but have reserved aside £1000 for them as I presume they will be upwards of £500 for sure. So if someone somewhere knows of any store in London or any website with these in stock, please please help a girl out and let me know! Merci!

Got any high top cravings?

Ta ta!
