DeVere
[Noir Cachemire]
En 1866, une adolescente de l'Indiana Pearl DeVere ( âgée de 14 ans ) s'enfuit de ses parents stricts religieux et se retrouva à travailler dans les bordels de Denver. Lorsque la dernière grande ruée vers l'or au Colorado transforma Cripple Creek en une ville en pleine expansion, Pearl lança son propre bordel embauchant plusieurs filles de la place. On dit qu'elle portait des vêtements somptueux en public, et qu'elle ne portait jamais la même chose deux fois. En 1895, Pearl rencontra et maria le riche propriétaire d'une usine - riche jusqu'à ce qu'un incendie passe par le quartier des affaires, détruisant la plupart des commerces, y compris son usine et son bordel. Son mari ne s'en remit jamais et déménagea en Californie alors que Pearl resta à Cripple Creek pour reconstruire son bordel. La construction terminée en 1896, Pearl décora l'espace avec des tapis somptueux, des meubles de bois franc, des lampes électriques, des baignoires avec eau courante, rendant son bordel l'entreprise la plus moderne et prospère de la ville. Pearl prenait de la morphine pour combattre son insomnie. Malheureusement à l'été 1897, elle fit une surdose accidentelle et fut retrouvée morte à l'âge de 33 ans.
Avec son cuir souple et perlé tanné au végétal avec ses découpes en forme de losanges, un imprimé de style cachemire dans des tons de noir et blanc, sur un talon de 6,5 cm de style Fellowship et une semelle de tunite de style Bellevue, soyez assurées que les avoirs de votre entreprise brilleront avec le bottillon printanier DeVere.

Love these sexy boots
I really wanted ( or so I thought ) the Wicked boots but my high arch would not make the turn in the ankle. Sad I roved the web site again looking for a brown boot and viola. Jill at the Granville store was awesome measuring them for me for the perfect fit. I got them, I HAD to wear them out that very night and I got stopped twice walking downtown in them. Love these boots, they are comfy out of the box and very stylish. I had to go up a whole size with my high arch and wide foot but they are very comfy. Now what pair to get next? Will be in the store at the end of April looking. :-)

Love these!
Got them in the middle of a Tucson summer and wore them anyhow because they are so beautiful. I'm a 10 in non-vogs, and a 10-11 in vogs--I ordered these in 10-1/2 because my feet are a bit wide. I would go up another half size if you want to wear them with anything thicker than tights. They fit like gloves, even around my thick ankles (I measured & called a store to make sure they'd work), and they're always the best shoes in the room. I can manage standing hours in them, and walking too- no tender spots after the first wearing.

how to care for Bellevues DeVere
Hi, I just got my Black Paisley Bellevues and was wondering how to protect them from rain etc. before I start wearing them. The leather is very tricky. Shall I treat it like suede? Any hints will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Katarzyna

Make sure you give your shoes a spray with an all protector shoe spray, you can brush the dirt out with a suede brush , or an old toothbrush. Also using the side of an eraser will lift off dirt as well.

Beautiful, so easy to wear!
I fell in love with the paisley boots online; my girlfriend gave them to me as a present. They are more gorgeous in life than in the photos, and very soft. I'm usually a size 10, and the 10.5 fit perfectly (my feet are a little wide). Thank you for making these boots!
Stunning Statement Boots
These boots are so stunning in design that you can wear with a bathrobe and no one will notice since your feet are so well-attired. Everyone should have these.
Latticework dream
I went to the NYC store with every intention of trying on summery fun 'vogs - I left with two pairs of ankle boots and the biggest smile on my face.
These (I got the black and white print) fit like a dream - the heel is a little less substantial than the heels on the Minis (I live in my Zazas) but it's the perfect height for running around the office or anywhere else.
The latticework is the best part - I wear them with brightly colored tights so the color pops through. Casual observers aren't quite sure what's going on so they stop and lean down to look a little more closely. These aren't shoes for people who don't like to attract attention.
The zipper up the back is a little sticky at the curve of my heel - I think that'll loosen up with wear. I was advised to scotch guard these frequently, but these boots are so worth that effort. Love them, can't wait to wear them with jeans.

Oh.My.God. I'd been looking at these on the web for weeks but my size was sold out. I knew I was visiting Vancouver this weekend so went into the store on Granville - and they had my size! I was so thrilled I almost cried, and I love, love, love these boots! Thanks Fluevog, you guys rock!

Paisley Beauties !!
I was eyeing these booties for awhile, but when I went to the store to buy them, they did not have my size.
The wonderful sales people found them in Toronto, and for a small price, which was well worth it, I now own these magnificent boots. I wear a size 7 1/2 and they fit just right. The Fluevog people know how to take care of you !! Thanks for making a Dazzlingly Beautiful pair for boots.

Love at first sight!!!
My love suprised me with this beautiful shoe on Valintines day... When I opened the box I just about fell over, very unexpected! I had been stalking them for about a week never have I worn a more comfortable and sexy shoe... These are my first fluevogs and I'm more than impressed. They will not be my last <3.

Yummy
These boots are so yummy & fun, I can't wait to take them for a spin fresh in today! I wear a 9 or 9.5 and ordered a 9 they seem a tad big but I think any smaller would be too tight. The zipper up the back is the punctuation to a sexy boot!
