The Shoe We're Lusting After—Check it!

Shoes are like crack. Not that we have any experience with the latter, but from what we've heard it's incredibly addictive and it leaves you ecstatic. Note: It's also illegal and really bad for you, and Sprig.com does not endorse drug use. We do, however, enthusiastically support shoe shopping while keeping the planet in mind. So we were thrilled to find these Navy Racers from the brand-new shoe line Form & Fauna. The round-toe blue pumps scream fashion and keep the eco thing down to a whisper, which is just our style. But don't let that fool you—these shoes are très earth-friendly. They're handmade in the U.S.A. from quality Italian synthetics containing no noxious substances and no cute animals; the heels are made of plywood, and the insole is recycled fiber. The lovely and talented designer, Bay Bertea, who is also a yoga instructor, had the very clever idea of lining the shoes with recycled yoga mats so they are nice and cushy...you’ll be omm-ing with every step. Now that's a habit we can get into.
