Jo-Anne Vernay
Footwear made from fruit? Yep! Jo-Anne Vernay crafts stylish heels from the fiber of pineapple leaves. We’re loving the look of the Mel-Heel in bold colors such as Cognac and Paprika. Constructed from biodegradable materials, these shoes are the ultimate in fashion. Plan ahead, though, as the Cognac style needs to be pre-ordered.
