There's something tantalizing about twice-dipped things: chocolate covered strawberries, caramel covered apples, cheese covered popcorn...to name a few.

　　Little did we know, this same rule applies beyond food, to shoes. Hester Vlamingsline of two-tone, color-dipped heels, boots and slingbacks are double the treat. The leather hues range from mustard to burnt orange to ivory to gold - all of which are enhanced by the contrast of the dark, ebony-embossed toe.

　　Though a fashion scene newbie, Vlamings is astutely on trend with her multi-hued wares, as any fan of Yves Saint Laurent, Miu Miu, Prada or Dolce &Gabbana can attest to. The designer is a cobbler of the finest education, with a degree in fashion and industrial design at the Artschool in Arnhem. Currently Vlamings' stylings can be found in several boutiques throughout the Netherlands.

　　And her shoes are not only commercial-minded. The art community has taken notice of her artistic designs, and fashion afficianados can take in her work in galleries and museums throughout The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and France. By L. Harper
