I am known for being a little obsessive with things. If I see something that's out of stock, I go on a mission to locate it. If I buy something, I usually continue buying along the same lines, my current two obsessions being shoes and red clothing! I like items to inspire me. Shoes are doing that at the moment. Especially suede ones! London Fashion Week didn't do anything to dampen my mood, there were so many. Some I loved, some were just outright mad but I still loved them! So much so I felt they deserved their own special post.
Shoes do seem to be like buses for me, I don't see any for ages (that I like), then I go months of seeing them all! I'm trying hard to be rational, I have two new pairs (for regular readers, the Zara and LK Bennett ones) not worn as there hasn't been the occasion. So I feel I really need to justify future purchases. That being said, I LOVE suede shoes and there are so many colourful courts around. But where would I wear them? I think I will just have to try the Topshop ones on, pray they don't fit (usually the case when I lust after something for a while) but if they do, run away!

My affordable favourites at the moment, Topshop's 'Gwenda' £58 |
|
I love all the colours! |
|
LK Bennett at Bicester Village, £250 down to £165 |
|
Not suede I know but loved these from Ugg, again Bicester Village, £225 down to £110 |
Ending on a Summer note, I do like to buy out of season. I've harped on about Timberland's Earthkeeper range before, the comfort is amazing. Now, are these a step to far? Granny or not? I can't decide! Originally £90, down to £44.99 now £19.99, bargain yes but only if they are worn! Mmmm....
love those Bicester ones, they look super expensive, like ALaia and would last forever!
ReplyDeleteI'm a shoe obsessive too Natalie, was looking with those Topshop ones today actually, but the bit around the toes is too circular for me I think, my blue Zara ones are more angular across the toes and I love them. The ones at Bicester are amazing though, those yellow ones have my name all over them!!! X
ReplyDeleteLove the Bicester ones too! xx
ReplyDeleteI love so many of those street style shoes from LFW. The LK Bennetts are beauties too.
ReplyDeleteSo no ones thinking the Timberland one's look a little Granny yet???!! Painting toe nails tonight, that always makes my mind up on a peep toe!!!!x
ReplyDeleteI think they're high enough not to be Granny. If they were a very low wedge, you'd be in trouble, but I can't see any Granny wearing heels that high!!!!
ReplyDeleteYes...timberland ones do indeed look a bit Granny...you surprise me x
ReplyDeleteLol! Well we all make mistakes - luckily I was in doubt so hadn't worn and could return! They were soooo comfy though, if I closed my eyes and didn't look at them then they would have been keepers! x
