Meghan Markle-Approved Shoe Brand Birdies Teams Up with Minted on a New Limited-Edition Collection

This holiday season, you may spend more time at home than usual, but that doesn't mean you have to settle for unexciting footwear. Birdies, the shoe brand known for its famous fans including Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex as well as its super-comfortable cushioned insoles, just launched a new, limited-edition collaboration with stationery and design marketplace Minted, which features bold, nature-inspired imagery embroidered onto classic velvet flats.

“We've admired Minted for quite some time, not only for the endless inspiration and unique designs available from independent artists seen throughout the marketplace, but also for their mission to support these artisans in providing them a platform to connect with consumers throughout the world,” Bianca Gates, the CEO and co-founder of Birdies, told T&C via email.

“Working with a brand that is not only female-led and founded, but also strives to support the work of independent creators, in particular female artists, has been a rewarding experience, as it aligns with the Birdies mission of supporting and celebrating women who live with purpose.”

Read on to see the three limited-edition styles, coupled with commentary from each of the artists on their work.
