I don’t know about you, but I think shopping in London is just about the best thing going: Edgy, fashion-forward style, plus tons of brands that we don’t always see here in the US.
That’s why I’m so excited to tell you about our newest offer, from UK-based Kindred Sole, an online shoe retailer that carries a really eclectic and distinctive selection of shoes. Yes, they offer established designers like United Nude, but they also feature up-and-comers like Laura J London, Diavolina, and Ugly Duckling. And, the icing on the cake is their excellent selection of vintage designer shoes. Shopping there is like a mini-trip to London, without having to worry about volcanic ash.
And, as means of introduction, they are offering Fantastic Toe members FREE shipping to the US on any order you place between now and May 21, 2010. That’s a savings of about $30!
So, click through to Kindred Sole and take a look at all their very cool spring shoes. To get your free shipping, just input promo code FANTASTIC when you place your order.
