I have too many shoes

Me and my lovely niece at the do    I finally got to wear my Louboutins at a family wedding (will post more details later).  I didn't find a green dress to wear with the shoes but I did find a great substitute dress from Dorothy Perkins that was good enough for the day.  But the Louboutins, what can I say about these shoes? The highs They have to be the sexiest pair of shoes I have ever worn or owned.  They are incredible high, yet surprisingly comfortable to wear.  For the first time ever, I was the same high as my husband, no mean feat for a short-arse like me!  They give you toe cleavage, which Mr Louboutin thinks is sexy (not everyone feels the same way about that little peek of toe).  I wore them to church, posed for pictures and danced a tiny bit in them but took them off for the long walk down Blackpool North Pier - walking 1,650 feet down a wooden Victorian Pier is not for the faint-hearted and fashion-conscious. They are...

This shoe should get a royal approval In honour of the recent news, that we will have a Spring Royal Wedding in 2011 (I can remember watching Charles and Diana's wedding on holiday at Butlins!), the shoe of the week is dedicated to Kate Middleton, our future Queen Catherine. Dear Kate Allow me to introduce you to Molly , a perfect companion to that stunning wedding dress that you've probably been dreaming about for the last five years.  Molly (currently in service at Dune) has recently been reduced in price to £35 therefore a good choice as consort for your walk down the aisle during 2011, the year of austerity for the majority of the United Kingdom.  She's got a perfect little kitten heel which I'm sure will serve you well from those first steps into Westminster Abbey through to your first dance and finally when you're whisked away to your honeymoon. Just one question, where will William park his helicopter ready to jet off? Your loyal Subject Ps L...

When I was getting married, I did what any bride-to-be would do, raided magazines for ideas and started drafting a big wish list. I'd noticed that a lot of brides had gone for a vintage feel with bouquets made of brooches rather than opting for fresh flowers. This was definitely what I wanted as part of my outfit. When I researched them, the price was just too high for my budget. I mentioned the bouquets to my friend Sylvia who is really creative and to be honest can make something special out of very little. She was up for the challenge, so Project Bouquet commenced! I love vintage brooches, so raided my collection to find suitable pieces. A key part of the bouquet was a butterfly brooch that my mum bought her mum with her first pay packet. I love that a bit of family history would be with me on my wedding day while a lot of my family couldn't be with me. In the style of thrift, we spent a great day at charity shops in Preston finding pearl necklaces and diamante bracelets th...
