Shoes of the Week 19/02/13 - Topshop Swoon Heart Print Slippers

Hello all

Once again I'm back with a fab pair of shoes to show you. This week has once again been pretty uneventful with the exception of a Friday night spent Swing Dancing in Shoreditch. As part of the Swing Dance Society we get to check out several events across London and the bars and dancers are always friendly and fun. I love getting dressed up in my best retro gear and showing off our beginners moves. It was also Valentines day so what better way for a singleton to meet new people than to be offered a dance ?

This weeks shoes are inspired by the month of love and I cant wait to get them on my feet.

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

My shoes of the week are Swoon Heart Print Slippers from Topshop.


 
Are you swooning at the sight of them ? I know I am.
 
Featuring a bright red background with white heart pattern these super cute slippers are designed to bring cheer and romance to your outfits in these dismal days.
 
The classic slipper design can be worn in bare feet or kept cosy through being paired with tights. Ideal for transitioning from winter to spring , or even into the summer.
 
If red isn't your thing then great news !
They also come in black too so you can wear them everyday.
 
At £28 I'd grab a pair now because I doubt that these will be around for long.
However, the price definitely reflects the quality so if you really want to make these last then I suggest easy wear or saving them for special occasions.

Shoes of the Week 13/02/14 - New Look Chunky Block Heel Chelsea Boots

Hello all

Another fairly quiet week here again with the exception of a night out to an old favourite "The Roadhouse" in Covent Garden. After not going out for a while the swing dance girls decided to let our hair down for a bit and have a fairly classy night. We went on a Thursday as this is when a band plays for the majority of the night giving the place a gig atmosphere whilst offering a place to sit down and enjoy the cocktails on offer. I really like Roadhouse as its not too crowded most of the time and even the DJ sets are good, the only downside is the prices when on a student budget (£7 a cocktail).

This weeks shoes were spotted after I took a walk over to Marble Arch. I don't normally venture that far up Oxford Street because my feet normally kill from ding the main stretch but I had some stuff to do in the area so I thought I would check out what was on offer. The New Look at that end is really big and I couldn't resist a look in.

My shoes of the week are Black Patent Chunky Block Heel Chelsea Boots

I don't know why I love these so much but they are gorgeous.
 
The chunky heel is made from rubber, offering stability as well as grip. The patent uppers are soft giving you the chance to move about freely without the chance for blisters or cuts and the elastic is very giving which meant I could slip them on easily when trying them on in store.
 
The Chelsea boot is everywhere this season so I would definitely recommend getting your hands on a pair soon. Team them with leggings and a jumper now or toughen up a summer dress and a denim jacket in the warmer weather.
 
At £29.99 this pair is well priced and New Look have plenty more designs on sale for about the same cost. I tried on a size 7 in tights and they fit my standard size 8 feet just fine so I think you should probably try before you buy to make sure you are getting the right size 
 
(Although for a cheaper matte alternative check out Primark £15)

Shoes of the Week 08/02/14 - Irregular Choice "Iced" Felix the Fearless

Hello guys

Phew, what a week its been. As halfway point of term creeps closer my work pile begins to reach the ceiling and my head is beginning to get buried beneath the books. Unfortunately I have done nothing exciting this week to tell you about so instead I  bring you some rather fabulous shoes.

This weeks pair are from irregular choice, a favourite brand of mine but I'm still yet to own a pair (hint hint).

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

My shoes of the week are Felix The Fearless by ICED at Irregular Choice.


Aren't they just Purrfect ?
 
 
In contrast to Irregular Choice's normal heels and high class designs comes ICED. This collection is designed to give the quirkiness often associated with Irregular choice but with movability and wear ability.
 
 
This design just stood out to me as I love the cat face embroidery. Combine this with a tweed background and you have one classy and fabulous trainer. They feature rubber soles with a "drippy ice cream" finish. The best bit is that they come in 3 different colours: red, black and a grey/blue.
 
At a retail price of £59.00 they aren't the cheapest shoes around but you are paying for the quality and design and in comparison with some other trainers out there I know I would rather splash the cash on these cuties.
