I think I bought these Ramon Tenza Women’s Fern Pumps about two years ago. I was waiting for a special opportunity to wear them as I never wanted to subject them to daily use. I mean, look at the beautiful suede upper, charming suede-covered buckle, and vintage-look platform, it was my duty to preserve them. Mine are black suede, by the way. Life is too short to let the Ramon Tenza - Fern Pumps waste away in their box, so I was eager to wear them to the Edison, a bar in downtown Los Angeles with a strict dress code (no athletic clothes or shoes but I think I saw someone with sneakers–aye!). The Edison is a very cool place converted from the first private power plant in downtown LA. The original (1910?) boilers and furnaces are still there and they serve drinks I’ve never heard of, like the Hemingway and the Singapore Sling.

These shoes are uncomfortable but they look good. So for hanging out for just 2-3 hours, they are fine. But beyond that, they started to strangle my feet.
