I was lucky enough to get the chance to interview Hayden-Harnett designer Toni Hacker back in October, and she’s so great! I’m dying to get my hands on a pair of her Madeleine riding boots ($448), which come in a beautiful brandy color (also black and eucalyptus). Toni was so excited about her new (and first!) collection of boots a few months ago when I interviewed her, and she let me feel the samples so I know that they’re super comfy and cozy! I keep gearing up to head to her store in Greenpoint because I’m not sure what size I am so I don’t want to risk getting the wrong one online, but this damn cold weather keeps making me chicken out! In addition to boots, come January 2009, Hayden-Harnett will have a whole range of flats, sandals, wedges and pumps 🙂 But in the meantime, check out Hayden-Hartnett boots and preview of the Spring collection here!
