Day 1247 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Rosie Posy | Irregular Choice (Rosanna Gault) 

Like Teddy Toes last week, my shoes today are also from SS17.  Back in 2010, Irregular Choice collaborated with the London College Of Fashion, where Rosanna Gault and So Yeon Sarah had their designs made, in a very limited collection.  Rosanna was asked to rework her cut-out heart heel and floating platforms for SS17, where we were treated to 6 more variations.  I ended up with 5 of those, some of which I've not yet shared here, though they all fit similarly. 

Day 1243 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Barnacle Betty | Irregular Choice 

Another set of old photos and a pair I find it hard to believe I've never reviewed here before (from SS17).  Firstly, last week were the lilac version of Pooch Perfect boots if you missed those and there's a link in that post to the white pair I reviewed first.  These perspex carved heels haven't been appearing all that much lately.  There were ankle boots in both Pokemon and The Wizard Of Oz collections, along with the red Click Your Heels shoes that I bought from Oz and prior to that, Little Twin Stars shoes in the Sanrio launch. 

Day 1237 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Hop To It | Irregular Choice 

I've overdone it this past week (making a 40th birthday card for my sister), so the new shoes I'd hoped to show you, will have to wait another week.  I bought Hop To It, back when they launched in Spring 2018.  The photos are from a year later, when I was doing #365daysofIrregularChoice on Instagram and I have to say my feet have clearly grown since. 

Day 1194 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Red Sequins AW17 | Dolce & Gabbana

Hi gang, how are you all this week?  No IC today, these are a pair of shoes I bought last year for my birthday.  If you follow my other blog, Pink Haired Princess, you'll know I buy a special pair of shoes for my birthday each year.  Seeing as I turned 40 last year, I decided to space it out throughout the year and bought 4 pairs.  These were the final pair I got and a style I've had my eye on for a long time.  They are from the Autumn/Winter 2017 collection, which featured a lot of these multi-buckled, embellished and sequin designs. 

Day 1182 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Seafoam Queen | Irregular Choice 

Since it's 'revival' many years ago, I usually buy at least one pair of perspex heels every season from Irregular Choice. I really enjoyed the t-bar series; Tiny Ted, Pretty Poodle, Barnacle Betty and Blossom Bunny and then the slight change of shape for Bellissima. I guess these are in a similar vein, but I've been torn with whether or not to buy them.

Day 1154 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice black Kir Royal 

I'm realising throughout #365daysofIrregularChoice on Instagram that there's an awful lot of shoes I've had for a while that I've never posted fit reviews for here.  I can remember back to when I started my Shoesday Tuesday posts, as I'd been less able to get dressed and out of the house, so didn't have outfits to show here and I figured a time would come when I didn't have any fresh shoes to share either. That was the reason I kept it to once weekly, as any more than that and I might've run out.  Wow, why did I think so naively?!!  Do not fear, the posts will continue for a looong time!  Actually I rarely posted outfits last year, so still have those to share at some point too.  Ah the to-do list is another endless task.  Ok, back to the shoes and you may recall me buying these in mint, reviewed here in 2017.  Well I wasn't as enamoured with the black version to be honest, but the more I saw them, the more they grew on me.  I managed to get them in the sale and I should've sized down, because like the mint pair they are large.  Same deal, roomy all over, especially wide in the heel area.  Mine were sent missing the pearl straps, so I had to wait a while to get replacements from the factory.  Had it come down to it, they could've shared with the mint pair, but clipping and unclipping 4 sets of pearls would've become a bit tiresome. 

Day 1153 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Blue I Had To by Irregular Choice 

I'm blogging! It's been a couple of weeks since I managed a Shoesday post here. A couple of months since I've done anything on Pink Haired Princess, but that seems a bit big to tackle just now.  I've really been struggling with energy this year, so it's been too difficult to manage blogging as well as posting daily on Instagram with the #365daysofIrregularChoice challenge. These shoes were one pair I showed this month as I'm doing a Valentine's theme for the whole of February and I thought to myself "I don't think I've ever featured them on Shoesday". A quick check back and I hadn't. These photos were actually taken in January 2018 after I'd bought the shoes in the sales. The light was a bit funny (seems like it was a very sunny January day) and maybe that's why I ignored them for so long, but I thought I'd use these photos rather than the recent ones I took for Instagram (pale pink fishnets then), so you have something different to see. I rather like them with these Muppets tights actually.

Day 1152 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice Shoely Not

I think I said this in my Tingle Tastic Shoesday post last year, but I was really disappointed with this heart heel.  While I usually gravitate towards quirky heel shapes, this one just felt so unoriginal, dated and not Irregular Choice like.  However, I fell in love with the shoe when I saw it in Carnaby Street in May.  Heel aside, the uppers in all of the styles were beautiful.  I really love the strange colour combination on these and the fabric at the front is so pretty.  It's a sheer lurex style material with multi coloured threading through it and metallic polka dots on top and it's ruched, creating this really cool effect that's so shimmery.  It's something that doesn't come across that well on camera, it has to be seen in the flesh really.  I was pretty mesmerised by it when I first saw it. 

Day 1138 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice Muppets black All About Moi 

Unfortunately no carousel heels shoes to show you today, because they arrived last night and don't fit! Oh, it's been such a worry and stress, but I have the bigger size on their way-total luck finding them. I used to always size up in character heels, but for a good while now, I've been finding my usual size fine and look at the Angelica Pearson boots last month, a 37 (size down) would've fitted, they were so generous. Anyway, hopefully it all ends well. One thing that has ended well, is me completing my own mission of owning every single heel in the IC Muppets range. There's been some eBay bargains recently and I've added another 5 pairs (even went for mid-heels, gasp) including two colourways of styles I already owned. These are one such pair, All About Moi in black.

Day 1133 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice Tingle Tastic

It's been a little over a month since my last post.  I'm daytime sleeping a lot and not feeling particularly motivated when I am awake, so I'm unable to commit to posting regularly, which gets me down sometimes.  It's to be expected, London was a huge thing and I've noticed if I do something now (like a small outing), it floors me, when pre-London it probably wouldn't have.  It'll just take time and honestly I was prepared to give up the rest of my year for having such an awesome time and fabulous experience. 

Day 1125 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice Muppets pink All About Moi 

Hi gang! Ugh, what a day, I'm shattered. I showered, tidied (which was totally impulsive, but I'm pleased with what I did, though I suspect I'll be unable to find anything now), packaged up a massive parcel of stuff that had to be returned and now my lower back is in agony and my hips and legs are done-in too! I really wanted to get this post out though because it's my final Muppets shoes, sob! Can't believe I've been through my 4 pairs already (hit the Muppets tag below to see the others). My sister is giving me these for Christmas, but let me take blog photos, though I don't want to properly wear them beforehand. It feels like cheating, so I'm hiding them away now. I'm also apologising in advance for the funny lighting, I tried to fix it as best I could, but the sun was going down when I took these last week and they all had a weird, warm glow to them (which I didn't realise until it came to editing them and I'm way too knackered to retake them).

Day 1119 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice Kir Royal

An absolutely dreamy pair of shoes for you today and one of my favourite ever designs from IC. It was most definitely love at first sight with these. The colour (mint has been my favourite colour since I was little), the fur, pearls, interesting heel concept and the beautiful heart detail at the back (that back view is stunning). They are utterly beautiful. This is the type of thing I'm hoping to see from The Muppets collection.  Something a little bonkers, fun and silly and Irregular Choice are the perfect brand to do that, so fingers crossed. 

Day 1117 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice Stars At Night 

Ahh, it's so nice to be blogging again after a couple of really busy weeks. Unfortunately not doing anything fun, but tidying, eBaying and still recovering after a trip to the dentist. The dentist was painless (replacing a filling), but seems to have hit me quite hard M.E. wise and I've been more lethargic and sore than usual. Well, it's probably not all down to that, I generally have been attempting to do more lately, but it played a role. It's affected my motivation and mood most days too and when I struggle to blog, keep up with emails and social media, I feel like a terrible person, failing at life and a very bad blogger!  Then the more I get annoyed with myself, the less I do, the less I do, the more I get annoyed, vicious cycle! The tidying and eBaying hasn't even been particularly immense (nor fruitful), but it's zapped my energy and increased the aches and pains. The good(ish) things have been shoe filled parcels aplenty! Though that in turn stresses me out (not just because I'm spending money like it grows on trees), but because I have the longest list of photos to take, blog posts to write etc etc for every new pair that comes in the door and there's been a lot!

Day 1116 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice blue Bee Delicious 

Hello, how are you all?  As promised in my review post, I have the brand new macaron heels for you today.  I touched on the fit in that post, but if you haven't read it yet, then I bought 2 pairs to try.  The pink in the size up (39/6) and the blue in my usual size (38/5).

Day 1115 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes:  Irregular Choice Eros

Narrowing down the pictures for Shoesday was rather difficult this week, they all looked fantastic. I've picked a selection anyway, so you can see every angle. It's a very wingy week for you this week as I'm styling these on The Shoe Girl Styles It as well as wearing them here.  I knew if I got them in my hands, I could make them work.  Like I said in my TSGSI post, white shoes and especially those made of satin aren't exactly typical everyday wear, but I absolutely love the contrast here with the black fishnets.  It was exactly what they needed to escape the bridal zone.
