Day 1139 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: 'You're Invited' Dan Sullivan Irregular Choice 

Ok, lots to talk about regarding the fit of these shoes, so I'm just going to dive right in. Some of you might know that last week when my super limited, You're Invited arrived, they didn't fit and I mean spectacularly didn't fit. A week on, my second pair arrived (in the size up) and I was a bit hesitant to even try them to be honest as they still looked tiny. I measured the outer sole of the 39 against the 38's and they are exactly the same size, so there was no confidence boost there (though the soles on this style really taper in comparison to the upper shoe).

Day 1047 - Shoesday Tuesday


Shoes: Prada frilled cuff court shoes 

Ooh I've been holding onto these photos for some time, as you can probably tell by the almost empty shoe room in the background! I bought them in...May I think, before my birthday and I kinda went crazy that week with the green satin and frill brogue Miu Miu and also a pair of Nicholas Kirkwood boots I haven't shown you yet. All sales buys obviously, you know I like my bargains!

Day 698 - Digging For Kryptonite On This One Way Street

Shoes: Plum and black shoes with ankle cuff Prada

Gosh I was struggling yesterday to get a decent shot of my feet.  I think the jewelled legs were confusing my camera!  I'd mentioned previously that I'd lost my floor space for taking pictures in my room and now there's half a dozen boxes in my new 'space' which are waiting to be taken up to the attic.  I don't think I've ever worn these leggings out-I usually change my mind about them before leaving the house.  They are comfortable enough at the top, but are very long in the leg and they keep 'gathering' at my knees, which I think looks rather unsightly!  I'm not sure about the cuffs at the bottom either, so would prefer to keep them hidden, hence the decision on which shoes to wear!  The dress is gorgeous, I got it for around £12 (bargain) and it's just such a cool print and a very flattering fit, plus it has pockets!

Wearing:  Diner print dress Very, crystal leggings Topshop, cardigan Be Beau at Matalan, belt taken from another dress, Mischief sunglasses Irregular Choice.
Fit: True to size.  4 1/2" heel and small platform, adjustable buckle on strap (other is elasticated) and velcro cuff.
Comfort:  The strapping can get a little tight after a while.

Pretty Petals

It was dull and raining this morning but dried up around lunch-time, so I decided to get dressed and go out, but then my sister and nephews appeared in the afternoon! My sis was due to give birth yesterday and is seriously about to pop (poor thing), she's massive! Anyway, they were out for a few hours, so now I have loads to do-but I did go out for a brief walk because it got really warm and sunny early evening!
As I thought it was going to be colder, I wore this Jasmine Guinness at Very dress with a black belt, little black cardi and tights. The shoes are Prada and do you see what I mean about lack of space in my usual corner? Ridiculous!
