Shoes of the Week - 21/04/13 - Clarks & Liberty Collection Propose Dress Sandal


Hi Guys

This week has certainly been an adventurous one for me. I've been to netball games , eaten in pubs , gone for drinks and even had a little day trip to Birmingham to meet up with some friends from Uni. I then followed this up with a double shift at work to earn some extra cash to splash for my first week back in London.

I can't believe how much I miss my life in the big city ! Everything is so different and there is certainly a North/South divide in terms of pricing. 1 more week left at home is both a sad and happy thought but these exams won't pass themselves.

This weeks shoes are taken from a really cool collaboration between Clarks and Liberty's of London Fabrics. Check them out ...

This weeks shoe are the Clarks and Liberty Propose Dress Sandal.

 
Magenta leather uppers, a wedge heel and rubber grips on the soles makes these sandals both fashionable and purposeful. The buckles are fully adjustable and Clarks offer a variety of sizes and widths to cater for everyone.
 
 
The fabric on the heel is taken from the Liberty Arts Fabric archive and each pair of shoes will be slightly different due to the pattern cut. The magenta suede picks out the purple in the pattern perfectly and is designed to be eye catching but not overpowering.
 
 
Certainly the ideal shoe to be wearing this spring/summer and at £49.99 they are not an expensive purchase for true comfort and effortless style.
 
 
Overall I give 8 / 10.
 
 
I'll be back soon.

Shoes Of The Week 13/04/13 - TUK Black Polka Dot Cat Courts


Hi Guys

This weeks been quite a busy one as I've been catching up with a few people from home before we all head back to Uni and exams. Tuesday night saw us hit the local town for student night which was so much fun !

I've also been back at work for a few shifts which I really enjoyed but have really tired me out.

This weeks shoes I think are really cute and I just love.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This week shoes are TUK Black Polka Dot Cat Bow Court Shoes

 
Who needs boring heels when you can have kitty feet ! I think these are just purr-fect.
 
Featuring a black and white contrast polka dot print and cat heads on the toes these shoes are designed to add a quirky edge. The medium heel keeps them comfortable and fashionable and the bright red bow makes them eye catching without them being over the top.


 
 
These are currently available online from New Look  at £49.99 but they are moving quick so if you want them - get them !
 
 
 
Overall I give a 7 / 10 - lovely but expensive and limited in sizing.
 
 
Speak to you soon

Shoes of the Week 04/04/13 - Dr Martens "Louie" Tattoo Boot


Hi guys

It's that time of the week again and I have a great pair for you. This weeks shoes were actually purchased last weekend as an Easter egg gift for me. Safe to say I was very happy on Sunday when I received a shoe box and some chocolate so, without further ado, here they are ...

My shoes of the week are the Dr Martens Louie Boots



For those of you who have been following my blog it will come as no surprise that I just adore Dr Marten boots. It has been a love story that has lasted years and every time a new season appears I know I am likely to acquire another pair for my collection.


I spotted this design about 2 months ago in London whilst browsing the new collection and made a mental note to check them out next time I hit a store.  On Saturday we had a little trip to Liverpool and I came across them in one of the shoe stores in the St Johns Centre for far less than the RRP listed on the website.

Due to the price I was a little dubious of the authenticity so I checked them out thoroughly to make a comparison in the official DM shop in Liverpool One. Luckily they worked out and we went back to purchase them.

They are gorgeous.

Featuring traditional sailor tattoo prints across white leather the pin up girl and punk inside me can be happy that these two worlds have merged. The art is spectacular and inspiring me for my next tattoo. The leather is supple and easily moulds to my feet and the 8 eyelets allow you to choose how to wear them , adapting for various outfits.


 

So far they have been a huge hit in shorts, tights, jeans and dresses. I honestly believe that there is nothing that they will not go with.

This now makes 10 pairs of docs for me but I love and wear them all and really feel that you get value for money.

I give them 10/10 !


Speak soon
