Giuseppe Zanotti.

My biggest memory of my first job working in Selfridges was wandering in the shoe department on my lunch and first seeing a pair of sandals by Guispeppe Zanotti. I had never heard of the designer before but as a 16 year old wondering around the 3rd floor full of shoes where a months wages wouldnt even come close to covering the cheapest pair it was all based on just the thought of what ones I could pick if money was no object and it was a flat sandal, covered in green and brown jewels, to say I thought they was beautiful was my biggest understatement to date and saying I tried them on 10 times, it must of been triple that. My happy ending was opening a shoebox from my mum and dad on my birthday, and they are still sitting in the same box now and I still love them as much now as I did when I first see them that Saturday in Selfridges.
