Day 1159 - Shoesday Tuesday

Irregular Choice christmas glitter court shoes
Shoes: Irregular Choice Santa's Helper

Following on from The Kringles boots last week, these are my other new season Christmas shoes.  I thought these were really cute, but the lower heel did put me off.  I put them in and took them back out of my basket several times, before committing to buying them on launch day.  They arrived the next day and my opinion was pretty much the same, they are cute, but the low heel is off-putting.  It just needs to be slightly higher for me, but I do really like the rest of the shoe.

Day 1158 - Shoesday Tuesday

What's this? Surely not a new blog post...yes, it is!  I think the last time I blogged here was in summer when I was going through all the Family Reunion collection from May.  It's been a bit of a tough year to manage blogging and everyday stuff, so unfortunately it's fallen by the wayside.  My poor wee blog has forgotten who I am!  I have been keeping up with the #365daysofIrregularChoice challenge on Instagram (well, not quite keeping up, but getting there), so if you're in need of a daily dose of shoe wearing, that's where to hit me up.  300+ items to ogle so far!  I'm realising that we're nearing the end of the year, so I can now grab all the good stuff that I was saving in the hope of getting to wear them for real, but instead I'll probably only be wearing my festive pairs outside now.  Which brings me to this post and I added another couple of pairs to my IC Christmas stash this year.  These are the pair I was most taken with, they are just so, so gorgeous, even better in the flesh than I was expecting.  Last year we were treated to the Ginger's House ankle boot and I really enjoyed having something slightly more casual to choose from.  I have 4 pairs of Santa heels, along with the snow globes from last year, so the boots in comparison were really 'wearable'.  This pair are a bit more, well a lot more glitzy, the gold sequins is dazzling.  Blindingly bright.  They flip to a less shiny silver on the other side if you so wish.  The red glitter parts actually have sporadic tiny gold stars in.  These stars are super pretty, but shed very easily.  I keep catching something glistening on the carpet and find it's another fallen star!

Day 1157 - Shoesday Tuesday

Hello gang!  Here's the next of my Family Reunion character heels.  The polar bear was a brand new character for this collection, although the heel itself is just the original panda (later a gold bear) in a different finish.  It's brilliant, it really is.  I love the whole concept of the shoe, I think it's so, so clever.  However, this post is more about the fit, so let's get onto that.

Day 1156 - Shoesday Tuesday

Apologies for the photos, the lighting was clearly not good this day (last week) and I didn't intend to use these for a Shoesday post, but I haven't been feeling great, so couldn't retake them. Plus today was lovely, until it was time for me to take photos and got very overcast, typical! They'll do, you can still see the details. So, another pair from the Family Reunion collection and I'll be honest, probably my least favourite of my haul, but that doesn't mean I don't like them! Far from it. Even the ones I didn't buy, I like. This collection was so strong, but compared to last week, Fantastic Fawn would win.

Day 1155 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice Fantastic Fawn 

Hello! Haven't had a Shoesday post in a long time (April actually)!  If you follow my Instagram or have seen my posts on Pink Haired Princess, you'll know I fell instantly in love with the most recent Irregular Choice collection.  It was called Family Reunion and was basically a bunch of the oldest character heels remade in completely different uppers with some of the heels updated in new ways too.  So, I thought I'd work my way through my haul with fit reviews, starting with my most favourite pair (yep, I've mentally ranked them), Fantastic Fawn.
