Pretty. These have been in style (outside decades-old leather daddy culture, that is) in San Francisco’s Mission District for the past year, seen at boutiques such as Five and Diamond, typically worn by sexyhot queer fashionistas such as Jiz Lee. More of Vogue’s arrival to this fashion meme in Abbey Lee Kershaw for Vogue Russia April 2011 by Hedi Slimane. I really like the ankle cuffs over high heels.
