I have that pair of flats the model is wearing above. And yes, it's as dainty as it looks, see:
The Bayswater - buttery-soft leather with fish leather detailing and silver toggles to finish off the bow
Its from Cocorose London, a shoe label from the UK that is now available here in The Philippines. Not only are they pretty and practical, they're prettily packaged too. They call their shoe box a presentation box, and admittedly, it is a presentation in itself - travel pouch, satin tote, polishing cloth, gift tissues, the works:
You can hand it over as a gift and you don't even need to wrap it nicely. It is what it is, a presentation box, and it lives up to its name. It's a shoe box you wouldn't want to throw out, in short.
There's also a story behind the shoes. A relatively young shoe label that was started by Janan Leo in London's East End in 2007, it has grown by leaps and bounds, partnering with local shoe makers and distinguished British institutions.
The Luxury
Heritage Made in England collection was borne out of a passion to help revive the heritage and traditional skill of
making shoes in England. Hand-crafted in
Northampton, England using fine leather and designed using specialist Poron, a rich underfoot cushioning, with slow memory foam, Cocorose London's Luxury Heritage non-foldable ballerina shoes
are available in an array of exquisite colours and finishes.
