Olen pit\u00e4nyt tapanani jo jonkin aikaa hommata itselleni syntt\u00e4ri- tai joululahjaksi jotain v\u00e4h\u00e4n hinnakkaampaa. Viime vuonna tilasin itselleni joululahjaksi American Duchessin 1900-luvun alun tyyliset keng\u00e4t. Historiallisiin tyyleihin sopivia klopottimia kun ei saa ihan joka kaupasta, ne pit\u00e4\u00e4 usein tilata rapakon takaa, tai ainakin v\u00e4hint\u00e4\u00e4n Suomen ulkopuolelta. AD on historiallisten kenkien tunnetuin valmistaja ja kenki\u00e4 myyd\u00e4\u00e4n ymp\u00e4ri maailman. Onneksi Euroopastakin l\u00f6ytyy heid\u00e4n j\u00e4lleenmyyj\u00e4 joten sain tilattua t\u00e4m\u00e4n parin suht kivuttomasti. Toimitusaika tosin oli pitk\u00e4, sill\u00e4 keng\u00e4t valmistettiin ennakkotilausten perusteella. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vaikka tilasin keng\u00e4t jo viime syksyn\u00e4, ne saapuivat vasta joulun tiet\u00e4mill\u00e4. En ole siis ehtinyt niit\u00e4 viel\u00e4 k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4. En edes koek\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4. Vastoin kaikkia j\u00e4rjellisi\u00e4 ohjeita, puin keng\u00e4t ensimm\u00e4ist\u00e4 kertaa jalkaan Tallipihan Suvi-vintageen. K\u00e4rsin juuri ja juuri ne jalassa pari tuntia ja lopputuloksena pikkuvarpaassa on rakko. Onneksi keng\u00e4t ovat nahkaa ja mukautuvat jalkaan. Varsinkin sitten kun t\u00e4st\u00e4 hellekelist\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4st\u00e4\u00e4n eik\u00e4 jalat ole en\u00e4\u00e4 niin turvoksissa kuumuudesta. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oli muuten melko erikoinen fiilis meikata ja laittautua tapahtumaan varten. Vaikka viihdynkin kotona erinomaisesti, tykk\u00e4\u00e4n my\u00f6s k\u00e4yd\u00e4 tapahtumissa. Nyt kun tapahtumat ovat olleet yli vuoden pausella ruttovitsauksen johdosta, tuntui hassulta menn\u00e4 kaupunkiin, tavata ihmisi\u00e4 ja py\u00f6ri\u00e4 orpona v\u00e4kijoukossa. Se oli my\u00f6s v\u00e4h\u00e4n pelottavaa. Ei sill\u00e4 ett\u00e4 en\u00e4\u00e4 pelk\u00e4isin tartuntaa, vaan ylip\u00e4\u00e4t\u00e4\u00e4n en koe oloani mukavaksi suuressa v\u00e4kijoukossa. Nykyisin viel\u00e4 v\u00e4hemm\u00e4n. Mutta eik\u00f6h\u00e4n t\u00e4m\u00e4 t\u00e4st\u00e4 v\u00e4hitellen ala normalisoitua. Milavidassa on muuten hieno 20-luvun n\u00e4yttely, k\u00e4yk\u00e4\u00e4 katsomassa!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve had a habbit of buying myself a bit of a luxury item Christmas or birthday gift for couple of years now. Last year I ordered myself American Duchess early 1900-s shoes for Christmas. It is not easy to find historically styled shoes, atleast not from Finland. In most cases you have to order abroad, often from America. AD is one of the most well-known maker of historical shoes, sold worldwide. Thankfully there is retailer in Europe, so it is possible to order them rather effortless. All though delivery times are extremely long, shoes are made according to pre-orders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though I ordered shoes in early Autumn, they didn’t arrive until around Christmas. So I haven’t had any time to use them yet. Not even for test use. Despite of any sensible advice, I wore them first time yesterday in Tallipiha Suvi-vintage event. I was barely able to wear them couple of hours, and resulted a blister in my pinky toe. Thankfully shoes are made of leather which makes them stretchy and adjustable for the shape of my feet. When the swelling caused by this hot weather vanishes, I am sure they are fine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the way, it was quite peculiar feeling to dress up and do makeup for the event. Even though I love being at home, I also love going to events. When all events and hobbies have been on pause over a year due to the plague, it felt weird to go to town, meet people and beeing in crowds. It was also a bit scary. Not that I am afraid of getting sick, but I feel uncomfortable in crowds. Now even more so. But I think things are slowly getting a bit more normal everywhere. And hey, if you happen to be in Tampere in near future, there is lovely 1920’s exhibition in Milavida, go and see!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
