Day 1219 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Queenie | Irregular Choice 

Back to the archive styles today and you'll likely recall I went crazy for this heel shape when it was released in 2017. I originally bought the mint Kir Royal and Tatsu ankle boot, going on to buy the black KR and then this style, Queenie, in pink and black. Neither colour I've shared here before, so here's the pink version, though it's more a dusky, mauve type shade to me in real life.

Day 1144 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes:  I Give You...Dumbo! ankle boots, Irregular Choice Disney Dumbo

Hello! Feels nice, if a little strange, to get back into blogging after a week of doing nothing other than sleeping. I've been in so much pain lately and had another 48 hour migraine last week, which I quite honestly would've appreciated someone drilling a hole in my skull to release pressure, it hurt that much. Medication, sleep and rest did nothing to help, there was no escape and obviously blogging and the internet were the last things on my mind. I'm still trying to take it easy, thus this post has taken a little longer to write and I'm still a bit hesitant to get back into Instagram and Facebook. I also did a  bit of rearranging in the shoe room at the weekend, which nearly killed me, whilst sorting out some bits and pieces to sell on eBay (another thing I'm trying to get back into).  It's all been quite physically demanding and I'm pretty limited in that department these days. 

Day 1137 - Dust Yourself Off And Try Again

Shoes: Original Diva - Muppets (right foot) and Miami (left foot) both Irregular Choice 

I felt like sneaking in an extra (outfit) post for you this week. This look was from the beginning of July, one of those really hot days we had during summer, which all seems like a distant memory now huh? I was meeting my three Uni flatmates in Edinburgh for a little reunion as it'll soon be 20 years since we first met. I honestly can't believe that. I do feel like a long time has passed since I was school, maybe not 20 years though, but since meeting the girls? It really doesn't feel that long. I have to remember I've been ill for 16 years since then though, so I suppose it does add up. 

Day 1124 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice Muppets Original Diva 

Oh my goodness, I am so in love with this combination! I haven't bought any of the patterned tights IC have made before, mostly because I was too fat for them, but whenever I laid eyes on the Muppets ones on launch day, I had to try them (and hoped they would fit now). It's a lot more than I'd normally pay for tights, but these are very, very good quality.

Day 1097 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Take A Chance Irregular Choice 

Hello, just a quick-ish post for you today as I've been feeling unwell this week. You've seen these shoes once before (here), but I wore them for real last week and thought you'd be interested in seeing how I styled them. They were released after the initial launch of dice heels at Schuh and Irregular Choice and as I'd already bought the Poker Joker boots, I couldn't afford these too. I'm not sure if I'd have gone for these over the boots if they'd both been available at once, it would've been a hard choice. You might recall I managed to get a pair in my size when I had saved for them and there were very few pairs left. My usual size 5/38 were insanely small though and I ended up having to return them and by then they'd gone completely and no store in the country had any left, so I wasn't sure I'd ever get them. Obviously seeing them on my feet now, you know that did happen and having worn them for a couple of hours, I can say without a doubt you need to size up in these.

Day 1075 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice Star Wars Floral Artoo 

Hello! What's this, I hear you ask. I'm messing with your minds, with Shoesday Tuesday on a Sunday, gasp! I've been feeling so rotten this past month, that I'm struggling to keep on top of both blogs and all my regular features, including my weekly Irregular Choice posts.  I suppose it's no biggie when I haven't been posting on Pink Haired Princess at all, but I've been trying to keep some routine or rhythm to TSGD, so I didn't want to leave you completely IC-less this week! Thankfully it didn't take too much effort to edit these photos today, so I thought I may as well go ahead and post them, even if it is out of sync with the days.

Day 1069 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Take A Chance Irregular Choice

Hello, today I have a pair of shoes for you that I bought twice! You may remember I posted a review on Pink Haired Princess, after I bought them last year. I'd had the option of both my size and the size up, but then all of a sudden they were selling fast and I got one of the last pairs in my usual size (5/38). I was ecstatic, only to find on arrival, they didn't fit. Like really didn't fit, they were tiny! Of course by this point they were completely sold out, so I stalked them like mad. Long story short, it paid off and I eventually (months later) got a pair in the bigger size (6/39), a much better fit.

Day 1058 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice blue Dotty Love 

I'm a little late for Valentine's Day with this pair of heart heels, though you do have to look to find it, so I just about get away with it.

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 1040 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Irregular Choice 'Tea Leaf' 

Yo peeps, what's happening with you this week? It's winter now huh? Well technically 'autumn' but you know what I mean, it's "changed". I actually don't mind the shift in the weather too much, it's more the lack of daylight that I hate. I don't have SAD or anything, but it's a nightmare trying to take decent blog photos! I'm already trying to think ahead and see if there's anything I could photograph now, before we're reduced to dim light for a few hours a day and darkness for the other 20! There's plenty more weeks of unseen shoes in Shoesday Tuesday to come though.  Definitely enough to see this year out.

Day 1036 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Pink 'Kitty Princess' Irregular Choice 

Another outfit post for you this week, again from a wee while ago.  It was the last time I left the house, I can't remember when, beginning of July I think.  Yet another hospital appointment, this time with a specialist.  I use that term loosely!  Not sure why they insist upon such early starts for patients with chronic illnesses.  So I wasn't sure what to wear, what the weather would be like and didn't have much time, but now that I'm not wearing makeup, I can get ready pretty quickly.

Day 1029 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Nude Mal E Bow Irregular Choice 

I can count on the one hand the number of times I've left the house this year. Then, I had physio last week, a dentist appointment, which led to another (in the same week), then a few days later a trip to the doctor. With my birthday sandwiched in the middle!* Suffice to say I'm pooped!  I'm not sure if I'll post all my outfits...well actually I might reenact the ones I didn't take photos of at the time, because it's more exciting when you see a wee bit more than shoes, isn't it?

Day 1022 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Black suede Icy (doll) Jeffrey Campbell 

Remember a while back, I asked which shoes you'd like to see next? "Doll" was an option and here they are! I told you they were crazy!! Safe to say I had my eye on these for years though.

Day 1000 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Embellished 'Lana' Sophia Webster 

Yes, the day has finally come, I've reached Day 1000! I will be writing another post on the momentous occasion later in the week, but for now "yay"!

Day 990 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Fawn heeled 'Angel Cakes' Irregular Choice 

Day 990, wow, slightly scary! I can't believe we've almost shared a thousand happy shoe days together!

Day 985 - Shoesday Tuesday

Shoes: Nude Mal E Bow Irregular Choice 

A little later with Shoesday Tuesday this week. What do you think of these beauties?

Day 980 - Find Light In The Beautiful Sea

Shoes: Black suede 'Diamontina' Irregular Choice

I don't want to continue to bore you with the Photobucket issues, but I got a reply from customer support. He agreed with me, that taking over an hour just to log in was ridiculous. That was it. No further help, no idea of what's happening. Anyway it's still being ridiculous and I can't see me renewing my pro account come the summer. I can't say I'm thrilled with the idea of getting used to yet another system, but anything would be better than this. Anyway, not much to say about this outfit. I felt ok-ish in it, then took a look at the photos and almost deleted them all. Bad hair day, bad face day, bad body day. Not feeling great about any of that but hey-ho tomorrow is another day (and an absolute downpour by the sounds of things, so probably no outfit/going out then). What do you do to relieve a crappy day? My method over the past few days has been chocolate. Lots of chocolate.

Wearing: Black midi dress, grey tights and polka dot coat Primark.
Fit: True to size. Kinda difficult to measure this heel, but to the first point it's 5".
Comfort: Really comfy and you definitely don't feel like this is a 5" heel, easy to walk in too.

Day 959 - We're Left As Shells, We Lost The Fight

Shoes: Turquoise 'Tickling Loris' Irregular Choice 

With one thing and another and me not really feeling up to it, I haven't been out or dressed much this month at all. This past week has just flown by (officially in panic mode for Christmas) and once more I'm left wondering where the time goes to! Anyway I've managed to get out once this week. My hair is straight and hiding because I'm about to colour it again and so there's no point curling it for that. It actually has felt a little more mild the past couple of days, so I managed to go out with bare feet and shoes, which I couldn't have imagined doing last week. I'm off to Glasgow on Sunday and staying overnight, so I'm trying to think ahead and plan what to wear-the shoes especially. They have to be comfortable enough to walk around in, but still look amazing. Oh and go with three outfits because I'm packing minimal! Not too much to ask is it?!

Wearing:  Black and white floral dress, leggings, polka dot coat and hat all Primark, cardigan Red Herring at Debenhams.    
Fit: True in length but tight across the foot, I opted for the size up. Heel almost 4".
Comfort: Easy to walk in, the high vamp digs into the foot a little.

Day 957 - All My Agony Fades Away When You Hold Me In Your Embrace

Shoes: Pink 'Kitty Princess' Irregular Choice 

I don't know the last time I wore these shoes, I think it's been forever! This pair were my first, then later I got the turquoise version and I think I've worn that colour more recently, but still some time ago! I think the last time I re-jigged the shoe-box situation in my room, I made an effort to keep these out and reachable. As I've been selling on eBay over the past couple of weeks, I've been searching through shoe-mountain and now it's as unsteady as ever! Getting one pair, has been a two-man job to avoid landslides and being buried beneath boxes and now every pile is slanting dreadfully. I've no idea how to get my winter boots out (which are at the bottom of the unsteady piles). I'm certainly not going to be able to venture into my Irregular Choice shoe wardrobe, as the mountain is sitting in front of both doors and I just can't get in there. This saddens me greatly as I know my leopard print boots and some other favourites are hidden in there. The builders are coming back on Thursday and starting to put our extension up (it's just been the foundations for weeks now), so hopefully next year I won't have these stresses, in my shoe-room!

Wearing: Pansy print 'Betty' dress Swan by Clements Ribeiro,  black tights (and floral coat) Primark, belt Dorothy Perkins.
Fit: True to size, just over 1" platform and 5" heel, button fastening (which I chose to wear to the front).
Comfort: The cat rubbed on one toe (only on one foot).

Day 954 - You Even Get Suspicious When I Paint My Nails

Shoes: Taupe 'Saflufy' Faith 

I've been super busy with eBay again this weekend, so this outfit had to wait until today. Then when I went to edit the photos, I realised I took none of the shoes. Like not even rubbish, out of focus ones, none at all! I'm losing it!  So today I'm half dressed wearing these boots and my jammies to take photos of them!  I don't think I'd normally wear furry boots so 'early' into winter but it was really cold the other day and all I wanted was comfy wee boots.  This is another one of my bargain £8 dresses, not my favourite print, but you can't really go wrong at £8 can you?  I found this belt the other day, which had been hidden under a pile of crap for months and forgotten about and it added a nice touch.  This week will possibly be quite sporadic again as I'm going to Edinburgh on Wednesday (I don't go for years then twice in a matter of weeks), to see The Lion King at The Playhouse!  I'll be out of the house all day and I'm not sure how I'll be feeling for the rest of the week because it's going to be exhausting for me.  Plus my internet is acting crazy right now, like really slow to the point of repeatedly losing connection. It's irritating to say the least!

Wearing: Red tile print dress and leggings Primark, gold tortoise belt ASOS, clover cardigan Swan by Clements Ribeiro.
Fit: True to size, 4 1/4" heel, lace up front.
Comfort: Easy to walk in, no problems.
