You know I’d never heard of Moon Young Hee but I am loving this collection more than even some of my favourite heavyweights. She’s certainly not designing anything earth-shatteringly new, but the formula works beatifully and it makes my heart race.

Hee’s dramatic elegance is fiercely feminine which is something I’ve really pushed myself away from in the last year or so, sartorially speaking. Recently I am finding myself becoming increasingly bitter over how much more I prefer men’s fashion to women’s – but androgynous style is cut for an androgynous figure. I might not have the figure of a femme-fatale but I just can’t pull off the many “boyfriend” shapes that appeal to me.
Hee’s collection reminds me that it’s OK to wear a skirt and feel pretty, while still retaining the strong sense of aesthetic definition I’ve been craving in my wardrobe.
Apparently Lucinda alerted me to these shoes back in December, but for some reason I didn’t actually read her comment until the other night. At $250 for a pair of plastic shoes I’m seriously hesitant. Luckily for me the only two online stockists I can find are 1) Sold Out in my size and 2) Do not ship out of the US (which is disgusting in and of itself — this is two thousand and ten, people, get with it*).
But these are basically the coolest shoes I’ve ever seen.

*Thank you to everyone in the U.S. who has offered to help get these shoes to me. I’m actually kind of pleased I can’t buy them, so don’t tempt me!
