Day 923 - Life's Too Short To Be Sittin' Round Miserable

Shoes: Cream and black 'Role' River Island Design Forum (Sophia Webster) 

After bold makeup the day before, I was keen for a fresh, natural look yesterday. For once, I loved everything about this outfit and the hair and makeup. Clothes wise, I'm really trying to wear those items that are full-on summer before it gets any cooler. I think my bare legged days are numbered! Well we have The X-Factor starting this weekend, so that's the countdown to Christmas starting isn't it? Back to my shoes and I knew these would rub the backs of my legs wearing them without socks/tights/leggings, but I love the look of pairing a pretty, girly dress with boots. These have to be one of my all-time favourite pairs of shoes and I sooo called it, way back when, that the lady that designed these would go onto big things. They were part of the design forum collection (designed by fashion students) for River Island and the designer in question was none other than Sophia Webster. She worked under Nicholas Kirkwood until the launch of her own label, which I'm lucky enough to own a pair of (and they are super fabulous I might add). I adore these and would never sell them, I think they sum up my style quite well.

Wearing:  Turquoise floral dress Dorothy Perkins, cardigan Primark, flower hair clip (part of set) ASOS.
Fit: True to size, back zip, 4 1/4" heel.
Comfort: Easy to walk in, but the backs will rub on bare legs.
