Shoesday: Laser Quest

Despite the lovely weather I've been feeling rather poorly this week, which means there's all the more reason to distract myself by looking at lovely shoes! One very pretty trend is that of laser cut decoration and it's perfect for the glorious sunny weather that's spreading cheer at the moment.
Using laser cutting can add fine little details to a shoe, or even make a huge impact in the design with bold shaping and cut outs. Rocket Dog's Pansy flats are embellished with feminine little flower motifs, whilst Shelly's Louise court shoes and adorable Confetti flats make use of fun geometric shapes, and both brands complement the shapes with a sweet scalloped edge.
Ash's Jessica boots remind me of intricately wrought iron, whilst Fru.it's complex Felid flats have the look of delicate lace. Bright berry and citrus shades are incredibly cheerful; meanwhile laser cutting completely transforms traditional shades of black and tan into something incredibly intriguing and beautiful.
I really like Shelly's satisfyingly chunky cut outs and heels, but which shoe is your favourite?
