Shoegasm! Kathryn Amberleigh

As a shopper-for-sport, New York living is just the best because you never know what amazing little boutique or designer you’ll stumble upon while walking through the streets. Since the weather has been iffy, I’ve been doing much of my neighborhood browsing online—mapping out my must-sees for Spring afternoon city-wandering.

Today I stumbled upon my shoe rack’s new best friend, Kathryn Amberleigh. This tiny boutique @ 219 Mott Street (nr. Spring) has only been open since June ‘09, but has already seen amazing success. Her shoes have been featured in Lucky, NYLON, Vice Magazine, WWD Accessories and Gossip Girl! The best part is that her designs don’t stray far from the $250 range (which isn’t bad if your wallet’s been broken in by Reva Flat obsession.....) Oh, and a few items from her line have been picked up by Shopbop for those of you who aren't NYC'ers. Can't wait to try these puppies on:

See you soon, Kath!
