Lace-up Booties Like Rumi’s

julie | trend alert, where to get the trend | Thursday, 04 September 2008

I had to use that title cuz it rhymes.  Anyhoo, I love analyzing all the interesting footwear that seems to be appearing this season.  The so-ugly-it’s-awesome look is really making a break through!  Amazing fashion-blogger Rumi from Fashiontoast is a great supporter of the ugly-cool shoes.  Here is a great pic of her in her infamous red/orange Chloe doc wedges:

She is so cute, she can pull off anything and I love the way she styles these.  In a recent post, she says that she’s gotten tons of emails about them from people wanting to know where to get them.   (she has a link on her post, if you click above)  They are around $600. 

I recently found some black lace-up wedge ankle booties by Tapeet that have a similar feel, if you’re interested. 

I would imagine that most people would find these a little more wearable than the orangey-red Chloes.  These aren’t cheap either, but they’re less than the Chloes.

What ugly-chic shoes do you love?
