I have too many shoes

Its that time of the year where its OK to just stay indoors  and eat a home-cooked Sunday roast , indulge in a lush hot chocolate and contemplate plans for the rest of the year :) 

If you've read some of my blog previously, then you'll know that I love a shoe with a buckle and I like a bit of vintage.  The details on these shoes , tick a number of items on my shoe checklist, so they just had to be my shoe of the week . Currently in the sale at Aldo. :)

I've been extremely restrained from making any shoe purchases over the past year.  I'm not sure if its because I've been busy in the first full year in my job, that I've had to choose practicality over a high heel or I just haven't felt inspired by the choices on the high street but I just haven't felt that urge to buy.   And I love shoes, they are the one thing that I would buy before anything else, I just haven't had that impulse to grab a pair of shoes of the shelf and pop them at the counter to pay.  So, I'm easing myself back into a love affair with shoes with this little sales purchase from Matalan

So its my first shoe of the week for 2016. As its awards season, I like to nominate these River Island shoe boots for the best supporting role; for providing the perfect complement to a date night outfit, adding the funkiest style to that cute leather shift dress you've been saving for cocktails with the girls and providing general sass to any outfit.
