Category Archives: Melissa Shoes

I’ll be the first to admit that when the Melissa jelly shoes first came out, I was horrified. How dare they cheapen the world of designer shoes with something made purely from plastic. Fast forward a year or so and we get the first Vivienne Westwood/Melissa collaboration, and while I still wasn’t a fan, I had to admit they are super cute. This is the second year with this collaboration and the shoes are growing on me. It helps that I’ve read several customer reviews that claim they are very comfortable.

These are the Dragon slingback pumps and I love the opalescent color and the contrasting pompom at the toe. The design is ultra girly and whimsical, but stops short of being childish. The shoe is made from thermoplastic with a fabric in-sole. The heel measures 3.75 inches. The Dragon slingback pumps also come with a heart shaped charm at the toe. $185 Available here.
