My Chie Miharas need a new home

One of the downfalls of ordering online is not getting the best fit. I fell in love with the Chie Mihara's in a store in Barcelona but didn't get them at the time. After I couldn't stop thinking about them, I went on a desperate search to find some in France. Well, at last I found those precious babies online, and ordered them. At first, I thought they would work because I'm usually a 7.5 /8 in women's but these 38s are just too big in the heel. This happens to me frequently and that's why much of my heel collection has an ankle strap. I noticed now that the Carinyo is now offered in a Mary Jane style. Tant pis!  After wearing them the first time to class one morning, I had to take off my ankle hose because my foot would not stay in the shoe. Since then I've tried wearing them a bit around the house hoping they would mold to my foot and I even put in some Dr. Sholl's inserts, but it's just not happening. Sadly, I have to find them a new home.

J'Adore Creatures of the Wind & Chie Mihara

I'm really into Creatures of the Wind right now. They're original, funky, bright, a little 80's but versatile as well.
This dress for example can be very casual or easily suitable for the office as well.
Lose the socks and pair it with these 

Chie Mihara Fuschia Velcro cork sandals


and you're ready to go. 

Or you can copy the look with American Apparel's transparent lace dresses. 
Check out the link below to see how they styled the dress with a colored shirt underneath to get the  wonderful layers of colors. Just 45,00 € in a variety of springy shades
