My Life in pictures

Recent-ish purchase - cute flats from Dorothy Perkins

Shoes new, house step vintage


Got my Louboutins re-soled by a great cobbler Gary at Timpsons Blackpool who really knows his shoes, good to know for future repairs

My dog Jasper, has an unfeasibly large nose in this close up



I love the Coke 'name' campaign, I found two with mine and my husband's name on them

I do have a bit of an addiction to 'full fat' coke and even though I know that one bottle can contain around 11 teaspoons of sugar I still can't resist it! As my husband now knows, coke is for Clare . . . not for sharing!


Sangria turns any rainy day into summer
Shoe's first day out, first time I've worn these yellow lovelies despite having them for over six months!
Antler bones, dogs love them (or should I say Harvey loves them) and its good for their teeth
We celebrated my mum's 65th birthday, she's on the right and I am in blue next to her
I will be defying gravity and seeing Wicked in September, am soo excited

Paris is on my mind as my current college assignment is about travel to Paris

A good cobbler is hard to find! We live in Northampton, home of shoes and there are very few here, Timpsons and one other, come to mind. Not that I have anything special that needs doing; I really must wear my VW shoes out one day!
Happy birthday to your mum!
Love those yellow shoes.
When do you finish coming to Brum?

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

Image
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...
