Three Bad Mice: Heiress v. Penniless: Lace-up Flats

If we'd told you a couple of seasons ago that this summer you'd be lusting after a pair of flats that look like a Scottish country dancing shoe, you may not have believed us. But then along came Aquazzura's foxy little Christy pumps and suddenly stylish girls all around the globe fell hook, line and lace-up...

The only slight catch? Christy doesn't come cheap. You'll need to drop somewhere in the region of a long weekend in a boutique hotel in Edinburgh to have these Aquazzura babies snaking up your pins. If you happen to have a spare couple of hundred pounds knocking about then act quickly, stock of these bad boys are running low everywhere.
