This company is a dream for those who are passionate about sustainable (and animal friendly!) shoe design. Or for those who, you know, just love shoes in general. And what gal doesn’t?

Melissa is a 25 year-old company based in Brazil - the same place that brought us Havaianas!

Made of injected thermoplastic, the shoes are an ecologically smart choice since they can be recycled so easily. But just because they are smart shoes doesn’t mean that they’re dowdy. In fact Melissa not only houses a Creative Director whose background is in architecture, but it also consistently rolls out an ever-changing line of designs created by renowned designers like Karim Rashid, Alexandre Herchcovitch, and most recently, Vivienne Westwood who is putting out an “anglomania” collection.

Take a look at some of their mouth-watering creations:
