Shoes: Red 'Truly Magical' Irregular Choice
A wonderful pair of shoes for Shoesday Tuesday this week, which I'm really excited about. Though I just realised that's red shoes (and indeed IC again) for two weeks running, oops. It's true I've always had a weakness for red shoes and handbags too actually, especially if they are shiny. My Mum is the same, so I'll blame the genes!
I fell in love with these the moment I saw them, but it wasn't until the 5/38 had sold out and the 6/39 was down to one pair that I buckled and ordered them. It's meant I've dipped into the money I'd been saving for Star Wars but...you can't have it all. It's nice to see the 'heel-less' wedge back, I've said before, you honestly wouldn't know any different when you're wearing them. I love the pops of patent polka dots and of course the bows. Love the bows. These are definitely one of my favourite ever designs and the gold pair are next on my wishlist, they are gorgeous too. The bit around the ankle just fits (it's not tight, but there's no extra room). They are a fraction big in the foot, but my usual size would've been a tight fit I think and because of the ankle, the shoe isn't slipping at all. So I'm very happy with the size up (and of course that amazing soft lining this season). What do you think, like these?
Fit: 3 3/4" heel and centre back zip fastening. See above for fit info.
Comfort: They feel very comfortable and are easy to walk in.
I love the colour and print. Not so sold on the bows but I do think they are fun!! can't wait to crack out my R2D2,handbag again when Star Wars comes out, I bought it in 1996 or 7 when they redid Return of the Jedi!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so tempted by Star Wars heels but house saving so I don't think I can justify it. Have you seen any more prototypes apart from the R2D2?x
There are lots. A pair of shoe boots with Darth Vader and Storm Trooper (I've had to look these characters up so hope this is right) heels. A pair of gold flats with I think C3PO on them? Can't remember what else I've seen so far!
DeleteI was just about to email you and ask whether you have your eye on any of the Star Wars collection? I've never seen the films so they're not really of any interest to me. Truly Scrumptious is on my wishlist, but I really like the gold as I think they're more different to the rest of my collection.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to get Yoda and R2D2 but am not totally sure. SW doesn't appeal to me either, but the shoes do!
DeleteI love the gold version of these, really must have them too (they are so different I can totally justify it), just need to win the lottery and then I'm good!
