Ciao Melissa

In April I did a considerable shoe edit. One of the shoes I edited was a pair of deep red Vivienne Westwood Anglomania for Melissa.

Purchased in April 2011 in Sao Paulo, I saw and immediately fell in love with these shoes, did not think much about the cost and since it was in reales currency I did not come to think I was paying much over one hundred dollars for a pair of plastic shoes. 

Wore them in Brazil, Chile, Panama, Colombia, Mexico, Uruguay.. these heels went places and got compliments every single time I wore them. They were comfortable from day one, until I wore them last in April. I have an estimate of at least 65 wears in 8 years. Below are some of them.

Eight years for a pair of shoes is quite the run, what's the longest you had a pair of shoes in your closet that you actually wore to the last day?

I definitely have Fluevogs that are older than that, but I probably don't wear them as frequently as you wore these red beauties. Most of my shoes last 5+ years, although there are a few that only make 1-2 wears!

Waoo 8 aƱos es bastante! Creo que solo unas zapatillas me han durado tanto. Le sigue unas flats que le di bastante uso y ahora las tengo descansando.
