My First Pair – Lacey K’s

Posted on June 12, 2008 in Fashion/Style

I have my first pair of Lacey K shoes – thanks to Lacey Kirstein, owner and designer of Lacey K Shoes! You’ll see me flaunting my Paris pythons (at left) around town this summer.

Unlike me, Lacey has very narrow feet. She was frustrated by her lack of stylish options, especially for evening footwear, and – with her entrepreneurial spirit – decided to take matters into her own hands… and feet.

Lacey K shoes are made of fine italian leather, and are surprisingly comfortable to wear. And Lacey – thanks for making medium and wide sizes so those of us with feet not so slender can wear your slingbacks (and other styles), too!
