I’ve just come across the work of illustrator Heather Landis and I’m smitten. They contain heady mixtures of vintage adverts, photographs and illustration and each has elements of fairytale wonder, vintage eclecticism tempered with a dash of surrealism.

More shoes, I hear you say. And so soon? I know, I know but I just had to share these vegetable-tanned leather beauties by Belgian brand Ellen Verbeek. The thoughtful design, the muted palette and the thick wooden heels give this shoes serious character. See more images from the lookbook below.
