Day Ninety Eight - It's Marilyn Monroe

I've been trying to tidy my bedroom, although sometimes it feels like I'm fighting a losing battle! I'm at the stage where I have nothing left to throw out, so I'm moving things around and just making a bigger mess really. I unearthed a storage box filled with shoes, a few pairs I forgot I still owned to be honest. These Marilyn courts are one such pair. I'm rather obsessed with Marilyn Monroe and anything featuring her image is likely to be a hit with me. I couldn't believe it when I bought these shoes a few years back 'Marilyn' and 'shoes' combined, heaven! I would never wear an elongated pointed toe like these nowadays though and I've definitely had my wear out of them, so I think they will be making their way to the local charity shop soon.

Day Ninety Seven - Temperature's Rising

This weather is driving me insane. I haven't left the house since last Christmas/month/year/decade! We even featured on the national news today (national!). For anyone who doesn't live in the UK, you basically never hear about snow on the news unless London has it bad! Our local council have advised everyone to stay indoors and not to travel because there is no salt left to grit the roads. Although the snow isn't too bad, we have permanently had a covering on the ground for the past few weeks which is unheard of. The schools are back tomorrow, so I don't see how you can advise against travelling when thousands of school kids, teachers, staff have to travel. Anyway, I just wish I could venture out for a wee walk for some fresh air, but there's no point taking a risk as I'll probably fall and hurt myself!

So today, we have an ultra tropical looking shoe, kind of like a rain-dance, it's supposed to bring warmer climes! These sandals are even more beautiful inside than out, with embroidered flowers. They also feature coloured rhinestones and a tiny little silver charm dangling near the heel (see it?). Ignore my scutty nail polish, my feet haven't been exposed for weeks!

Day Ninety Six - It Wasn't Meant To Be

If you follow me on Pink Haired Princess, you'll know I ordered these Ashish wedges from Topshop but when they arrived, they didn't fit. I had another go yesterday, but as you can see I couldn't get them on. I can get my foot in, but my heel won't fit inside the shoe. They are very gorgeous and I've been lemming them for ages so I'm pretty upset. On the plus side I've saved myself a massive £150, which I'm sure will come in handy to aid my shoe habit. It just wasn't meant to be.

Day Ninety Five - Pink and Fluffy

A sight I bet you never thought you'd see, me in flats! My sister got me these slippers for my Christmas as she had noted I hadn't worn slippers for years and considering all the time I spend in the house, I probably should. They are very cosy and fluffy (they look like marshmallows with bunny ears) and I'm still learning to walk in them, I feel/look like I'm walking on the moon. I'm sure I look ridiculous, maybe it's the old lady in me coming out though, after all I am turning 30 this year!

Day Ninety Four - Pom Pom Away

I love these shoes but have never had the right outfit or opportunity to wear them in the year I've had them. So I was determined to get them out for New Year. I wore a blue dress from Monsoon with green and white flowers, so the green shoes perfectly accented. I also managed to find a pair of tights which matched perfectly. The heel is incredibly high (over 5") and very skinny, so I was glad I got to stay indoors!
