Let customers speak for us
from 128 reviewsThis is my second pair of Fairyloot shoes. I got my first pair a few years ago and granted, I covet them and don't wear them all the time, but they still look new.
These shoes are beautiful, well made, incredible fit and so unique and stylish. You can feel the love they were made with and I feel so proud to own these. Thank you so much, I am thrilled!
Another incredible shoe experience in the bag! These beautiful Fingles are soft and flexible and fit my foot like a glove. The suppleness of the leather makes your foot feel like you’re walking on a cloud. This is the perfect every day shoe and goes great with jeans or dresses. The laces mean it can fit a variety of foot shapes and needs. I have narrow feet but prefer a wider toe box and these shoes work perfectly while still looking so fashionable. I can’t wait to get another pair. I couldn’t recommend more if I tried!
Wow!!!Words cannot express my delight with these boots. The whimsy, the craftsmanship, the design, the comfort is out of this world. Ren is a master craftswoman and her work is not only beautiful but also a comfortable dream for your feet. These boots lace perfectly on my petite ankles but provide enough room in the toe box for ultimate comfort. The flexibility of the soling means my feet feel supported but I still feel like I could dance the night away on a toadstool under the full moon. I will continue to support this incredible artist and shop and never want to put shoes on my feet again unless they are made by Ren. If you’re hesitating at all, take the plunge and treat yourself! You will be overjoyed by the experience of walking anywhere in Fairy Steps’ shoes!
I used my version of this little capsule clutch for the first time yesterday, and was inspired to leave this review. It’s absolutely perfect. The Natter bag is incredible. It hold so much: purse (Merry), phone, specs, lippy, hanky, keys and more. Yet it is compact and lovely to hold on to. It was perfect for the flower show I attended, where I wanted to make sure I had all I needed, but knew I would be in close quarters with other attendees as well as displays. It is pretty, sturdy, and entirely functional, and a joy to use (and even just to look at on my dresser when not in use). I absolutely love it.
Meg really is a bag of dreams and a dream bag. Somehow Ren has figured out the perfect proportions for a bag that can hold all that is needed through a day of work (mine is in and out of the classroom and library, so pencil case, journal, iPad & electronica, scarf, book or 2, thermos, keys, snacks) and the to and fro of transit time. Along with being as 'just right' in size as Goldilocks preferred her porridge's temperature, Meg is both comfortable (wonderful wide strap, holds its shape & stands on its own nicely) and comforting to carry (can be cradled snugly under an arm). In a world -- I quote one of my students -- 'on fire,' the thought that each bag, not to mention each shoe and purse and button and jumper, that Ren makes is as unique in the world as the Little Prince's rose, adds just that pinch of magic *fairy dust* & whimsicalness to keep heart & soul in hopeful cheer. (This review is for a made-to-order Meg, that is now accompanying me on all my daily rounds, else I would be pouncing on this nettle leaf one in Noce.)
This is my 5th pair of boots/shoes from Ren. I love, love, love them. I feel like my feet deserve beautiful made boots that depict who I am....fun, quirky and colourful. I know I will be back for more 🥰
I love this bag. the leather smells so good and is soo beautiful. It's smaller than I expected, so make sure you check the measurements carefully if you order one! But it fits my wallet and my iphone-- it's kind of like a little wearable pocket. Superb quality leather and stitching.
I live in Canada and wear a size 10 here. So I ordered a size 6 recommended by the gal that made the shoes for me. Everything about them was exactly as I expected and perfectly matched all the pictures that I saw of the shoes. The colors gorgeous. The fits perfect. They're absolutely delightful. I am very, very pleased
Oh i really love these. I bought blue ones and they are a dark blue one side amd a light blue the other. So versatile. I will be buying more.
I am beyond pleased with these boots. The craftsmanship is incredible, the design is sensible, and they are very comfortable (the sizing chart provided is accurate and helpful). But beyond their functionality as footwear, they are works of art. If you’ve been thinking about ordering something from Fairysteps, do yourself a favour and go ahead and treat yourself. You won’t be disappointed.
The Storm cowl is perfect for winter walks. It encircles the neck without being too bulky under a winter jacket. It is so soft, and the colours are beautiful. I'm very pleased with my purchase!
As a secondary school English teacher, I have been looking for the perfect work bag for years, and with Meg, I found it! The front pockets hold my specs (in their matching Goggle case) and various writing utensils. The roomy interior holds everything I need for my work day: iPad and charger, book, school keys, big tube of hand lotion and a smallish flask (leakproof) for tea or water. I carry along with it my beloved Owlsfoot bag for personal items, so I don't have to lug around a big bag on after-school errands. As I am quickly nearing retirement, I debated on the wisdom of investing in this bag with only a handful of years left to use it as a work bag; however, it is so pretty, it will easily be able to change its function to a bag for day trips. The front pockets will fit a phone or iPod, and the crossbody nature and bead closure make it secure for a day away from home. I'm so glad I ordered this bag, and I'm so grateful to Ren for creating such beautiful and functional items. Ordering from a small business owner who is creative, kind and has integrity is so refreshing in a world that seems to have gone mad.
I really love this bag. It fits in a lot more than what I thought it would. So incredibly cute functional with the front pocket and helps me to feel more like me! It is superbly made with wonderfully thick leather that will last a lifetime. It’s like you can feel the love in every stitch. Ren is an absolute sweetheart to deal with and accommodated my preferences. This small business is absolutely handsdown my favourite!
Really cute and unique shoe. They are comfortable and will look great with skirts, dresses, or trousers. A great quirky basic!
I’ve been coveting a pair of fairysteps for years a big birthday was a good excuse to treat myself.
Love these beautiful shoes. Will love wearing them.
