On your left are Miu Miu’s highly sought-after bird shoes, the kind of shoes that have the fashpack in raptures and everyone else wondering what the hell the big deal is. I have to say the jury’s out for me. I love them because they’re so ridiculously over the top, but I don’t think I’ll be rushing to splash this month’s rent on a pair (not that I’d be able to find them if I did). Here they are being worn in Vogue with some other pieces from the S/S 2010 Miu Miu collection which also featured cat prints, sheer panels and oversize collars.
As you may know, I love a good controversial catwalk copycat piece, so on the right are the high street reinterpretation of the shoe from River Island. They’ve used cherries instead of birds, but there’s no denying the inspiration here. They’re £54.99 and also come in navy.

Where can I get these? They are not on the website-am I too late?
