To my knowledge, I’ve never owned a pair of 100% vegan shoes. I guess I thought most vegan and eco shoes looked like the TOMS style. TOM shoes are cute, fun and have a wonderful purpose which I greatly respect but they aren’t my style. I’m such a shoe lover. More specifically a heel lover and for me, the taller the better. So when I saw these shoes, I was excited to try them out.

What I wore: The Vegan Fringed Evening Shoe

Vegan Chic Fringe

I have the faux suede in the tobacco color.

• 100% Vegan
• Padded Footbed
• Available in faux suede and soft pleather

I sported my new kicks at a friend’s dinner party the night of the Oscar’s. These shoes can complete both a casual or dressy look. I paired it with a vintage cashmere ruffled skirt and relaxed beige sweater. These heels would also look great under denim too. Sometimes finding a great pair of dark brown heels is hard and these are the perfect shade of basic brown. My favorite feature is the fringed detail and knowing that they’re vegan, makes them even more fabulous!

I wore these shoes for over 4 hours and guess what?! – no blisters! They pass the test. It’s difficult to find a shoe that’s both stylish, has a decent sized heel and is comfortable. That night two people complimented my shoes; they said that they were stylish and fun.

These shoes retail for $39.99 and are available at VeganChic.com which is a site offering vegan friendly shoes and bags for both women and men.
