Osborn Design came about when co-founder Aaron Osborn met an out-of-work cobbler who was doing charitable work in Guatemala, where his (Aaron’s) family runs one of the largest orphanages in the country. Each shoe is handcut and sewn by a local artisan and I think the result is pretty amazing! Fashion+Humanitarianism=Pure Gold (as already once proven by Tom’s Shoes). I also came upon Osborn’s tumblr, which is fully of random inspirational photos. Hope you enjoy!
Purchased these little babies at the Dolce Vita Boutique in the LES this weekend while (post Bloody Mary brunch) shopping with my girls on Saturday. Kind of in love with my feet today. They have some great stuff right now – including both their new summer collection + some amazing sale items! If you don’t have a boutique in your area, check them out here!
Even though it still somehow feels like winter will never end, I am so ready for these shoes. I love the new “flatform” style of shoe because for girls like me we can always use the extra height. Jeffrey Campbell. Virgo. 5″ heel. 2″ platform. Woven rafia. NeedSupply. $112.
