We love us a good flat, here at the Hive - but we also love a little height.
What's a girl to do?
Well, Matiko's Desert Boots allow you to have both! A 'hidden' lift in the heel gives you about 2 inches of height, while still appearing like an effortless flat. Plus, the amazing texture (pony hair) and print give a fresh spin to this classic bootie, that will leave those around you saying 'raaaar'!
Shoe of the Week- Aldo Tauret Wedge

We spotted desert boots on fashionista's here and there over the summer, and the colder months certainly haven't slowed the velocity of this trend. No big surprise considering that the desert boot is basically a slouchy, rugged, 'borrowed from the boys' cousin to the insanely trendy oxford. We've been seeing the classic menswear suede lace-up interpreted for the girls in different ways - such as the classic flat coming in some not so classic colorways, some with staggeringly high platforms and heels, and others with feminine bow accents. But our favorite has to be the desert boot wedges, like the Aldo Tauret. The crepe wedge on the Tauret adds a feminine twist without losing the utilitarian soul (or should we say sole?) of the desert boot. Available in both beige and black, these wedges will look great paired with your winter sweaters and scarves and will carry you through to spring where they will look just as cute paired with a floral dress and jean jacket.
