Fangirling for the Fantine! Rating: 5 stars Author: Tina

Fantine Fabulous Footwear for Fluevoggers! Amazing style, outstanding shade. The box calls this colour 'Rock Garnet'. As a jeweller, I totally appreciate the reference!
The style and shape of these shoes is irresistible to me. A little bit Victorian with the glimpse of skin at the front, a tad royal with the high collar at the heel, a smidgeon witchy with the bumped toe, and a nod to the pirates of old with the skullicious buckle! And that heel ... who doesn't love a stacked and flared heel?!?
I went up a half size in these due to the very narrow pointed front. My Odettes from this family are the same, better for me in a 10. So comfortable to wear and not difficult to walk in.
'Voggers who've been fans of the brand for a while might remember the old Frugal and Rococo families; this shoe style reminds me so much of those! Whilst living in Vancouver about 17 years ago I spent many happy days with my face smushed into the glass window of the Fluevog store on Granville Street, ogling everything. I bought what I could, and lusted after everything else! Anyhoo, I digress.
These shoes are most definitely a jewel in my Fluevog collection, and I'll wear them with pride and attitude, for sure! Thanks Chris and Jef for adding these to your portfolio; I am indebted.
