A Deitrich Wedding
Publish On 2009-09-17 , 6:26 PM
Hello.
A few months ago I purchased a pair of Deitrich shoes for my wedding. I just wanted to thank you both for being so helpful and for designing such amazingly comfy shoes. I kept them on for the wedding and through the entire reception.
I had blue laces (for my "something blue"), and Ivory laces (to match the dress), but wasn't sure which I wanted to use. At the last minute to decide on using the orange ribbon that I had left over from the cake! It was a great decision and gave me something extra unique and fun to include in my special day.
I've included a picture from the wedding for you. Hopefully I will be in one day when the budget permits for another pair...or two or three.

Hey Guys,
I hope you both doing awesome...You guys know me...Never in my life
have I felt compelled to write or tell ANYONE about anything
fashionable other than maybe the occasional
killer sale. Well, yesterday that changed, and I want to shout it
out on the roof tops. You guys have got to put these shoes in In
Style--Bare Soles. I found a shoestore that has handmade THE COOLEST
AND MOST COMFORTABLE SHOES I've ever seen. I almost didn't go
intothe little boutique in North Hollywood because my husband said
"Why don't you wait until you get a job before you buy ANOTHER pair
of shoes, et hem."...Admittedly, I'd been on a shoe kick (pun intended).
Anyway, these handmade heels and wedges are light and have TRIPLE
padding on the sole, so you feel like you are wearing SLIPPERS IN
HEELS (I'm not exaggerating!). Not only that, they accommodate all
kinds of foot issues---besides being designed with the help of
podiatrists, they can custom add in support for those with plantar
fasceitis (me!) or add additional strap support or basically whatever
you need, because each pair is hand made.
The other cool thing is, they are all designed with a sexy strappy
component to laceup--it can be anything from basic black leather to
teal and polka dot cotton, or burgundy laces (like I got!) (There are
a ton of choices). You get FOUR lace choices so you can mix and match
it for any outfit making it like having four other pairs of shoes---
call it the ultimate recession-proof shoe.
It's a (gorgeous) Mom and Daughter team (the return of the Mom and
Pop shop!) who run this small shop. The daughter (beautiful and so
nice) worked with me for an hour asking me what I had in my wardrobe
to find out what color straps would make the most of my purchase. Oh,
and all the shoes were under $200 if I remember correctly. The other
news for you...Cameron Diaz has bought them, Lisa Rinna loved them so
much she bought them for her OWN store in Santa Monica (Grey
something)...and Bonnie Hunt just bought some too. Considering how
out of the way this place is I don't even know how they found them,
but anyway...there it is.
I loved this woman, Kate, and her mom is Cissy (who I didn't meet but
saw a picture of)...The idea to make these kinds of shoes with the
padding and the comfortable straps came to her mother in a dream.
This is such a great story, but I'm sure if you simply featured them
they'd be thrilled.Let me know what I can do... I'd love to do a
mini-story on them...
That's the lonnnnngest email I've written in AGES!!!
xo,
K.

Cissy & Kate

Could there be a better team than A Mom who designs and a daughter who likes to wear her designs?
If you had told Cissy (The Mom) that she would be a shoe designer prior to having the’ nocturnal vision’ we lovingly call the dream shoe…she would have said you were nuts or worse.
And, Cissy admits, that had Kate (The Daughter)had not had years of retail experience with high profile companies she may not have pursued the DREAM. Not to mention how MUCH Kate enjoys tying up her clients…uh, I mean strapping the shoes.

Times 2… they are unstoppable…where one leaves off…the other begins…completely different and yet a perfect match. Mom and Daughter!(By the way, just to keep it real…they have their ‘moments’.)
But their goal is and always will be….your ultimate enjoyment.
With the third member of this team( who wants to remain anonymous)you can add 100 years of family shoe manufacturing and design.
They are leaving skid marks…on the shoe front.

What our BS friends have to say!

I fell asleep in my BS flip flops. My husband gently asked, “ would you like to me to help you take off your shoes?” I said , “no thanks, I can’t even tell they are on.”

Just one today:
I just wanted to tell you that I received my special order and I am thrilled. I’m off to Italy and I intend to wear them walking on the cobblestone. Thank you. Now, I’m dreaming of my next design.
