Shoe of the week


I don't want a lot for Christmas . . .
I've noticed a few bloggers has started posting about their Christmas wish lists, so I thought that I'd better get writing mine!  Obviously my shoe of the week will definitely be on the list - hey I can dream can't I!

These Brian Atwood mauve leather pumps with embellished chain detail on the heel are available at NET-A-PORTER and priced at £720 .  With a six inch heel and hidden one inch platform, these shoes will definitely require a limo-to-venue policy.  Brian Atwood's shoes have been spotted on Posh and Eva Mendes to name a few stars who've also fallen in love with Mr Atwood's designs. 

The price of some designer shoes still manage to amaze me, these shoes are worth more than one and a half times the value of my car.  I wonder if NET-A-PORTER would accept my car as a trade-in? If so, those shoes better be made for walking!

They are divine! Love them but they cost the same as the AW bag I want!

Hahaha imagine if you did trade the car in! I saw some similar ones in Kurt Geiger but the real deal is the Brian Atwood ones unfortunately xx

Unfortunately the streets of Blackpool would be too harsh for these beautiful shoes but perhaps with the bleak future and calls for austerity shops should consider trade-ins to make more sales! Just think some homegrown organic veg could help pay towards that coveted chanel nail varnish or a months supply of fresh-baked cup cakes could support your dream of buying that elusive pair of killer heels you have on your wish list!

Spotted on the street

Image
Today, I was 'spotted on the street', well I suppose you could say spotted in the mirror! I've been meaning to do a post on the boots I own but just haven't got round to doing one yet.  So today, as I've started walking to work due to my car being very poorly. The need to get my dogs Jasper and Harvey to and from doggy-day care (my mum's but didn't it just for one second sound like I was Paris Hilton!) means I needed some boots that were made for walking. I usually buy a pair of boots every couple of years, I like to try and find a boot with some detailing that could resemble the vintage footwear like buckles or button detailing.  This pair were one of my last boot purchases bought from Barratts, for around £70, in December 2008 for my planned wedding and honeymoon in Vegas and San Francisco.  Funny story though, I thought I would save these boots for the holidays and choose to leave them in the box untouched until March when I'd be jettin...

where do I start?

I've been neglecting my blog for the past few weeks while I've been suffering from a horrible chest infection.  I've just not had the energy to research shoes and window shop the latest that the high street has to offer. So now I'm dosing up on medicine and determined to get myself back on track. To help kick start my research, I've treated myself to some magazines, including the latest InStyle magazine, with the fabulous Dannii Minogue gracing the front cover. She is one of my favourite style crushes, especially after last year's X Factor.  In my humble opinion, she definitely won the X-Factor fashion crown! In the Style Candy section, they've listed a lovely pair of shoes available at asos.com that meet the nude trend while tickling your fancy with a feather embellishment. These would be lovely for a summer wedding or perhaps a day at the races.  Although I would be quite happy wearing them while doing my ironing! I've learnt  ...

Goodbye 2010

As the door to one year closes, another opens Well 2010 is coming to a close.  It's been a mixed bag of a year: a new government in place, Royal Wedding announcements and the plight on miners trapped underground gripped the world.  For me, there were two significant milestones - my first wedding anniversary and the first year since my sister underwent treatment for cancer with an all-clear (we will have five years of these yearly milestones to go through).  In addition, one of my best friends had her first baby and my cousin got engaged on Christmas Day so we have had a couple of great events, which has made a real change from the last couple of years! This has also been my first year as a blogger, so I wanted to say thank your for popping by my blog, leaving comments and all your support.  I've really enjoyed blogging and hope to continue developing my blog in the year to come. I'm not sure what the new year will bring but I can only wish tha...
