When the Finnish shoes label Finsk collaborated with TopShop to launch Finsk for TopShop, I meant to pen a note on it, but simply never got around to it!
But the more diligent Queen Michelle of Kingdom of Style has written a post on it

I have always loved wooden heels, and the conical shapes on these shoes are a major plus for me. But it is really the thick leather straps that attract me. They look so soft! And they’re a great contrast to the regular thin-straps we’re more used to.
Which reminds me of a pair of flat sandals I’d bought in Melbourne. I’d almost forgotten about them in the chaos of unpacking, but looking at these Finsk shoes brought them back to my mind because they have the same thick leather straps! Only mine are in a lovely royal blue
I think I’ll write a post about these sandals soon or wear them in an outfit photo. They’re too lovely to be left forgotten in a shoe box.
Strapping up,
Dottie
