Shoe Watch: July 2013

I have been trying to be good with saving money lately so all I am allowed is to online window shop. So it seemed high time to do a shoe watch post! I went on a few US based designer department stores to look at the shoes on offer and was realllly disappointed...I suppose that's good for my bank balance? But of course, I can always find stuff to buy on net-a-porter so that's where all these can be purchased!

Grusanda 85 £625

As you know, CL can do no wrong in my books and while this pair is simple and classic, there's something about satin, pink and bows that just does it for me. Are they not adorable? Maybe its because I'm thinking of a Marchesa dress that has been sitting in my wardrobe unworn which is this exact colour and has a huge bow on the front. 

Gucci Beverly Heel £455

I am in love with these shoes. I could imagine myself wearing them sooo much. I just love me a sexy pair of patent T bar heels. Love love love!

Nicholas Kirkwood £850

And these Kirkwoods seemed so fun and 60s mod that I was drawn to them. I mean white boots is so impractical, but pretty much all Kirkwoods can be described as being that so I still think these are uber cute.

Can you tell I'm in a boring simple shoe phase at the moment?

Shoe Watch - Nike Studio Wrap Pack

I saw this new pair of 'shoes' from Nike in a travel magazine recently and just fell in love - they were spruiked as a good alternative to packing runners when you're on holiday and I can see why.

These Nike Studio Wrap Pack shoes are claim to be light weight and able to be worn for yoga, dance, barre and all sorts of other exercise. At $110 they aren't cheap but certainly not expensive either considering the amount of gear you get - look at the pic below!

These are definitely going on my lust list!

Shoe Watch: March 2013

With all the rainy weather lately I've spent a lot of time at home internet researching for my upcoming holiday as well as online shopping.

Its been a while since I've done a shoe watch post...here are some shoes that I came across on my website hopping adventure

Christian Louboutin V-Neck

These have been around for a while but I keep on going back to them - they look boring there but amazing on. I love the sexy but demure traditional style and these happen to be 120s, but they come in 100s which is perfect perfect perfect for me! I tried them on at David Jones and wanted them immediately...and actually the price point was decent (600 from memory!)

Christian Louboutin Dos Noeud

I love classic - so these are just stunning and droolworthy in my opinion! The peep toe, ankle strap, bow on the back, and that pinky nude colour. Delicious!

Ferragamo Saphir

I know its weird that I would like this, but I think its kind of a cute twist on the standard Varas which can be pretty boring. But the gold bow and heel are a nice touch for everyday practical wear.

Now for a hideous pair...

I hope I don't offend anyone here, but can someone please tell me why anyone would buy this pair of Valentinos?? I mean I usually love his stuff, but this is just too eurotrashtastic for my liking. Its got everything going on - studs, perspex, ankle straps to oblivion. 

Any other shoes I've missed recently? I've been too busy to internet shop until more recently so I'm on the hunt!

Shoe Watch: October 2012

I was procrastinating from doing work the other night so decided to look at new hot shoes - it always makes me feel better!

Anyway, here's an edit of some awesome shoes I've seen recently:

The Bergdorf Goodman shoe catalogue was a good start - I love the photography and the way it has been put together. See for yourself!

And aren't these bow crystal heels by Giuseppe Zanotti amazing?

And while these are really wintery (coming into Northern Hemisphere's colder months), I could see these Alexander McQueens being practical and pretty

As for these Roger Viviers...stunning, absolutely stunning! I love the style and the strong vert hue and delicate bow as a touch of girliness to the shoe-boot
