All about shoes
Last year, for the colder season, I ended up favouring ankle boots, as they look great with pretty much every outfit.
This year, I got my hands on a pair of Clarks African Ice ankle boots from Clarks Soul of Africa range in dark brown, to keep that habit going.
I am feeling very festive but also very cold… so been a bit lazy with my outfits in the past week or so – not a lot to show!
Here is my latest selection of outfits:
Amazing Autumn Blossom dress from Eucalyptus Clothing (LOVE), belt from Primark. I wore it with black court shoes (not shown) from Christian Louboutin. I will publish a review on this dress alone with more details, as it is soooooo lovely!
Caroline Groves Parakeet shoes, 1959
For their recently announced exhibition opening on summer 2015 on shoes, the V&A museum in London is going down a route many women all around the world and across times know so well: pleasure and pain.
Shoes: Pleasure and Pain opens on 03 June 2015 and goes until January 2016 displaying extreme and fabulous footwear on which we can feast our eyes.
With the new season truly upon us, I’m having to really control myself not to buy everything I see in the shops – so many exciting clothes out there…
With some old and some new, here is my latest pick of outfits I’ve been wearing around London:
Flowery box crop top and skater skirt from H&M, black court shoes from Christian Louboutin, necklace from New Look, rings from Forever 21, Topshop and H&M.
It does look like the weather is changing in the UK. So sad to say this in August still…
I do however, still have a few outfits to remind me of summer!
Here are my latest:
Flowery skirt and bralet coordinate from Forever 21, white jacket from H&M, beige peep-toes from Jimmy Choo, white bag from New Look.
This is my second Pure London show; I attended the first one back in February, and this time, the show was actually bigger.
Rather than looking for trends (which I do anyway, but it is such an enormous space, with so many styles), I look for new brands that excite me and revisit some of my favourites.
Oh, how I’ve been enjoying the weather…summer in London makes me forget, just for a short period of time, all the misery of winter! And that’s what I’ve been wearing to face the warmer days:
Black pencil skirt from Forever 21, black off the should frill crop top from eBay, black and gold peep-toes from Zara, belt from Primark, necklace and bracelet from New Look, rings from Sobral, H&M and Primark.
Everyone knows how much I love Christian Louboutin. And Maleficent. So what is not to like here?
How annoying is it to sink your heels on grass? Apart from the inconvenience, there is the dirt. What about destroying your heels in gravel? Argh. For heel lovers, these are the things nightmares are made of. *shivers*

Shoe heaven, for me, is as simple as heaven – seriously, no place can call themselves heaven if there are no shoes in sight, right?
