Shoes: Purple snake cortesan court Irregular Choice And here are Saturdays shoes. The reason for the sudden resurgence of Irregular Choice is simply because I can now access my IC shoe closet which has been hidden behind box loads of crap lately!
Wearing: No outfit post.
Fit: Run a little small, 4 1/2" heel.
Comfort: Not the comfiest considering they are quite small, tend to numb your feet after an hour or so!
Shoes: Leopard print sandals with black patent detail and bow back Lotus Hallmark Like I said, posts may be a little sporadic right now, but I'll get there in the end! This is Fridays shoes...I'm a little disappointed with how these turn out in photos. I wanted to get a better image than last time I wore them, but failed! They are so adorable in real life, really sexy. I must put a pedicure on my to do list for this week, the nail polish is slowly working it's way off my toes!
Wearing: No outfit post.
Fit: True to size, 4 1/2" heel.
Comfort: Slingbacks can often be uncomfortable, but these are pretty amazing, they don't dig in, the slingback just sits in the perfect position at the back of your heel and there's a little elasticated bit inside which keeps them on whilst walking. Really comfortable considering the height of the heel too.
Shoes: Black and nude patent 'Snowdon' boot TopshopI'm a day behind, so here's what I wore yesterday for a trip to the hygienist. It was quite funny because on the bus journey home, I was aware of the old lady sitting opposite me staring at me and more particularly my shoes (she wasn't being indiscreet). As I got off the bus, I could tell she was talking about me to the only other person on the bus. Little did they know though, that as I got off, my Mum got on-hee hee. The two old dears spent the rest of the bus journey (a good 10-15 minutes) discussing me and my Mum heard the whole thing. They were saying 'did you see the height of her shoes? It's ridiculous...gone are the days I could wear a heel-although those shoes were terribly high'. They continued 'I've seen her around the town, she just had her stick with her today-she was walking-I don't know how in those shoes! So high! Sometimes she's pushed in a wheelchair.' Hello ladies, that would be by my Mum who's sitting right beside you!!! How can they see me and not her? Oh well, at least they didn't say anything nasty (my Mum was about to step in if they did anyway!)-I'm glad I'm amusement for some people.
Wearing: Black floral dress Dorothy Perkins with black frilly Primark skirt worn underneath. Black leggings and long sleeved top also underneath. Black coat (Primark) with added fur tippet and River Island shell bag. Dragonfly hair clip (Primark) in my gravity defying beehive, bird and deer rings Topshop, jewelled fox ring Evans.
Fit: A teensy bit small (or just difficult to get your foot into), 4 1/2" heel and 1 3/4" platform.
Comfort: Easy to walk in (old ladies take note), relatively comfy-although quite 'hard'.
Shoes: Orange suede Audrina platforms Irregular Choice
An image of a never before seen pair on TSGD today-my new orange platforms. I was always quite keen on this shade, but it sold out quickly at the time. I already own the star print and blue suede pairs, but finally snagged this shade. The colour was slightly different than I expected, a deep, burnt gold orange. I just wish they fit better...
Wearing: No outfit post today-the tights are House of Holland though.
Fit: I knew to order a size up as the vamp comes too far up the foot in my opinion but it's still very tight (even with the bigger size), length is probably true to size though. 5" heel and 1 1/4" double platform.
Comfort: Gah I hope these stretch a little-I don't remember my other pairs being quite so tight. Easy to walk in.
Shoes: Flying teddy bear cortesan court shoes Irregular Choice I apologise for being awol this past week. There's lots going on at home just now and posts may be a little sporadic. I forced myself to go out of the house yesterday on the search for two 30th birthday pressies. I didn't have any luck, so I'm going to see what I can find on the internet today.
Wearing: Floral dress (which looks like it was made for these shoes)-bought last time I was in Primark with a black long sleeve t-shirt underneath (winter now!), black leggings and black cardi. Gingham bow pony charm hairclip Yama Yama Pretty Mama, ceramic pig necklace River Island and rings (not shown) Topshop & Primark.
Fit: I find cortesan styles run small so bought these a size up, they're probably a little bit big, half sizes would be perfect! 4 1/2" heel.
Comfort: The heel doesn't feel as large as it is until you take your shoes off at the end of the day! I find them comfortable when wearing though and easy to walk in.
Shoes: Pink leopard print cortesan courts Irregular Choice I completely forgot to measure the heel on these shoes for you today...I'll update the info tomorrow. It's a shame I don't wear these more, but they are just so tight that your feet cramp up after 10 minutes!
Wearing: No outfit post again-I really must sort myself out and get properly dressed!
Fit: The cortesan style generally runs small. Just under 4 1/2" heel.
Comfort: These hurt like hell because they are too small, I'm not going to lie!
Shoes: Turquoise swan 'Can Can' boots Irregular Choice Another never before seen pair today! And another disappointment for me. I already own the black and white zig zag version of these-my 'oldest' readers may recall I wore them way back on Day 7. I think they are just a tiny bit too small for me, so I ordered this pair in a 39. They arrived yesterday and are actually a 40 inside a 39 box, so now I have to go to the bother of returning them. I'm actually not that pleased with them anyway, they absolutely stink! I'm not sure if it's the print of the paisley fabric or the robot fabric inside, but it's really strong and even after twice washing my hands, I can still smell it on them.
Wearing: We've eventually caved and put the heating on, yep it's now officially winter! I've been wearing these thick, fluffy socks to keep my feet from turning blue and decided I wouldn't even take them off for these images, sexy huh?!
Fit: Obviously this pair are too large for me, but I reckon a half size up from my normal size would fit perfectly. A very small 3" heel for me!!
Comfort: Can't really comment as my old pair are quite small and these too large.
Shoes: Pale pink jewelled swallow platforms Shoesone (Korea) Yep today it's yet another never before seen style. This design is just glorious and it's easy to see why we all fell head over heels for the spring Miu Miu shoes. The pale pink satin is a lovely shade combined with the contrasting black swallows. The jewelled section and chunky platform and heel just finish it off. Somehow all these aspects shouldn't work together, yet they do. I'm selling this pair and two other colours/prints on ebay if you are interested.
Wearing: No outfit post today.
Fit: Run a little large, 5" heel.
Comfort: No problems with these.
Shoes: Green floral 'Once in Love' wedges with pink suede trim Irregular Choice Now for yesterdays shoes and wait for it, these are never before seen on TSGD! I ordered two new pairs of IC's last week and was so disappointed when this pair didn't fit. They are really tight, I can just get my foot in, but it's painful! It was kind of to be expected...they are similar in shape to my 'Dance The Night Away' and I had to take a bigger size in them. Oddly though my Prom Princess fit and they are my regular size-just the woes of Irregular Choice sizing unfortunately. This was the only pair they had left in any size, so I can't even order a size up. I've been wanting these shoes all season and I seem doomed when it comes to rosette styles in this fabric (remember the farce with the Schuh pair months ago?) I'm selling these on ebay if you are interested, I thought it was easier than sending them back.
Wearing: No outfit post today.
Fit: You'll probably need to order a size larger than usual. Amazing wooden layered wedge heel approx. 4 1/2"
Comfort: I can't really comment considering I took them off straight after these images and they don't fit properly!
Shoes: Aqua 'Margaux' wedges Terry De Havilland My adorable little nephew turns 2 today, so on Sunday we went through to my sisters house and had a little party. I changed my outfit about a million times beforehand and finally decided practical was the best option. OK, so practical in my world consists of a maxi dress and designer wedges, but I'm thinking easy to wash dress, comfortable to wear and no sinking heels in the garden-seems better than the pure silk dress I considered! I'll put the rest of the images of these gorgeous shoes on my facebook page later today.
Wearing: Parrot print maxi dress G21 at Asda, black cardi, multi strand pearls ASOS, bird ring Primark and jewelled fox ring (my new love) Evans.
Fit: True to size, 1 1/4" platform and 5 1/2" heel.
Comfort: Very comfortable.
Shoes: Pale blue 'Hypolita' demi wedge Irregular Choice I gave you last Thursday and Fridays shoes, so here is Saturday. I love these shoes. I remember being really pissed when Irregular Choice didn't release them. Then months later I managed to track them down. I was so pleased with them, the colours are lovely and the style features a demi wedge heel which is really unusual. However last year on the shoe challenge, I realised I just didn't love them as much as I thought-it's not helped by the fact that they are very unphotogenic. I like the shoe, I'm just not sure I like it on me. I've decided to sell them...I may regret it, but hey ho, what's done is done.
Fit: True to size, heel just over 3 1/2"
Comfort: No problems with these.
Shoes: Yellow and green geisha court shoes Irregular Choice I'm not selling these shoes, but to be honest I should be, because yet again I don't wear them enough and they aren't the most comfortable pair I own. I think I keep them though because of the unusual colours (I don't have any shoes that mix bright green and yellow together) and I do like them.
Fit: True to size, 4 1/4" curved heel.
Comfort: Quite a 'hard shoe', so feet can ache after a while.
Shoes: Purple 'Filly' peep toes Shoemissy Another pair that I'm selling on ebay. I'm trying to be very ruthless because there just literally isn't any more room for shoes in my bedroom, it's overflowing! Of course every time I get rid of a pile, I seem to have a buying surge and replace them all! I'm waiting on a pair of Irregular Choice boots being delivered today actually (there really is no hope for me!).
Fit: Run a little small. 4 1/4" heel and small platform.
Comfort: If they were a half size larger they would be much more comfortable.
Shoes: Black spotty 'Luna' sandals Irregular Choice Ok, I'm about to attempt the huge backlog of posts that I never managed last week. Sorry! There's no outfit posts with most of them, because I didn't go anywhere. I'm currently selling these lovely sandals on ebay...unfortunately they just don't get worn enough.
Fit: True to size (if anything they run a little big), 4 1/4" heel.
Comfort: Very comfortable.
Shoes: Purple faux snakeskin and suedette lace-up peep toes Matalan I'm going to try and catch up with the posts I missed during the week although I'm busy preparing for yet more ebay auctions. These shoes are from yesterday-another pair I'm selling. Tomorrow, I'm going to be relisting those that I didn't sell last time along with the gorgeous Miu Miu look-a-likes that I talked about yesterday on Pink Haired Princess. I'll shortly be posting the details on PHP and if you are keen to purchase any, please email me before tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon otherwise they will be going on ebay then.
Wearing: No outfit post.
Fit: True to size, 4 1/4" heel.
Comfort: No problems with these.
Shoes: Black peep toes with metal heel (I just had to show them from this awkward angle!) Marios Schwab & Scorah Pattullo from Yoox I had a somewhat successful shopping trip today but didn't really get anything exciting (lingerie and leggings!). I am quite excited about the two pairs of shoes I ordered online last night though...I have a sneaking suspicion that they're not going to fit though.
Wearing: Short, frilly rose dress Peacocks, black leggings and cardi. Birds on branch ring Primark, bear ring, monkey ring (just seen) and single bird on branch ring all Topshop, multi strand pearl necklace ASOS. Oh and my floral sunglasses are Primark and the lipstick is my new one-Cunning by MAC. My nail polish goes with nothing I know-I don't know why I decided on this colour last night!
Fit: True to size, quite narrow at toe, 4 1/4" fabulous heel.
Comfort: Easy to walk in but I must admit that my little toes were feeling very squished by the end of the day.
I haven't posted for days, I know-sorry! I just haven't had time....will do a catch up soon, I promise! Plus I have 3 new pairs of hot shoes, yes indeedy!
Shoes: Leopard print court shoes Jessica SimpsonAnother pair of shoes that I sold yesterday. I really love these, the print is fabulous (and very AW '10 btw) and I like the shape with concealed platform-unfortunately though I find them quite difficult to walk in. They are ever so slightly too big and slip off and you start doing that clenched toe thing to keep them on and that's not good for your feet! I'm sad to see them go though.
Wearing: No outfit post.
Fit: Almost 5" heel with 3/4" concealed platform. These are marked a 38, but runs slightly larger (maybe a 38.5)
Comfort: As I mentioned they are difficult to walk in, but a comfortable shoe.
Shoes: Blue winged peep toes Zoe FootwearBeen busy with all my ebay auctions today. One pair I sold are these blue winged shoes, very unusual and definitely inspired by my J-Lo Kata pair!
Outfit: No outfit post today.
Fit: Mum bought these for me a size larger, just incase I needed it in the cuff-I'd say they are pretty true to size. 4 1/4" heel.
Comfort: very comfortable and easy to walk in.
Shoes: Pewter t-bar peep toes French Connection I just bought this lovely dress earlier in the week and it arrived today and fits really well. My only problem is it gapes slightly at the armholes, but all sleeveless or cap sleeve dresses seem to do this on me. I think it's the combination of having big boobs but thin arms. Anyway it's super cute and comfy. I took my leggings off as I realised I didn't need them (it's really quite warm today) and the dress length works better without.
Wearing: Floral dress George at Asda and black cardi.
Fit: True to size although narrow at the toe, 4" heel
Comfort: The narrow toe starts to pinch after a while, but otherwise fine.
Shoes: Red tartan Dolly Interbow courts Office I got up really early today because I had an appointment with the hygienist/tooth scraper/gum bleeder (!) but it was cancelled because she's ill. I should've spent the rest of the day being productive but instead I've wasted it doing I don't know what! So no outfit unfortunately...I'm thinking of running a little interactive something on my facebook page, where you get to choose which shoes I wear-oooh! So if you haven't already joined, then click the button to the right or search for 'Princess Gemma' on facebook.
Wearing: No outfit post today. Another pair of shoes that I'm selling on ebay...slightly reluctantly!
Fit: True to size, 4" heel.
Comfort: As I mentioned with the glitter version last week, the shoe is quite 'hard' but not uncomfortable.
Shoes: Pale blue patent strappy mary-janes New Look 
Wearing: Pearl Lowe for Peacocks spotty dress with slip underneath, black tights, teacup and teapot rings Miss Selfridge, rabbit ring Primark (not shown), bow hairband Yama Yama Pretty Mama.
Fit: These are quite narrow, I bought a size up. 4" heel.
