Lace-up Heel Black

Smooth faux Napa upper and a chunky wooden heel (it’s on mooshoes.com and they always check to make sure things are totally non leather so we can safely assume the sole is non leather too_

$110.00

Marais USA is a pretty awesome company that sells shoes online. The only boots I wore last winter were their brown Chelsea boot, which also happens to be vegan.

Chelsea Boot Sienna (also comes in black)

Faux Nappa leather with elastic siding (also on mooshoes.com so assume non leather for reasons stated above)

Well, Marais USA has great taste and a lot of their shoes just so happen to be made without leather. They recently released the lace up heel pictured above, and I really took a liking to it.

The lace up heel reminds me of one of my other favorite fashion bloggers: Rhiannon of Liebemarlene vintage. She blogs full time and made a living of selling her vintage finds in an etsy store.  She is very intellectual and loves the history of silent film and classic literature. She lives in Atlanta and a lot of her pictures are taken in spooky run down plantation houses or graveyards. She is gorgeous and looks like Zooey Deschanel but even better. She always seems to wear shoes like this, and now I want to wear them too. lol.

Blue (featured) and black

* Polyurethane, cotton, rubber (no leather)

This is awesome. This looks like a swiss hiking boot like the ones I used to see in the ridiculous but awesome catalog I used to receive called Gorsuch. It was a catalog that was aimed at  trophy wives who had moved to ski towns in Europe, who dressed (or so the catalog claimed) in  typically white high collared ruffled shirts, leather leggings, leather boots embroidered with flowers, while the little blond children typically wore lederhosen and embroidered leather parkas. Everyone was posed on the ski slopes of the alps or in the apres ski lodge. Everything was literally like 4000 dollars  but they sent the catalog out to anyone who would take it. You must check it out for yourself!
They sold boots exactly like these, but amazingly these use no leather.
