The Shoe Girl Styles It: ASOS Empire State Of Mind (Green)

What unusual shoes these are.  The cut-out, especially that almost strap effect at the front are quite unique.  The only thing I'm maybe not keen on is the heel.  It kinda looks like a stuck-on after-thought.  I love the combination of textures and colours in the uppers though.  The shoe-boots are called Empire State Of Mind from ASOS £45 and I just love this Topshop Boutique dress, which was new in that I've teamed it with.  Lovely autumnal colours and print.  I kept it pretty tonal with a deep burgundy fur collar and bag.  Do you like this look?

The Shoe Girl Styles It: ASOS Take Me Home

I thought I'd choose the photo of these shoe-boots on the foot, as you can see the shape more clearly.  They are called Take Me Home from ASOS £42.  They've got a peep toe and front slit.  I wanted something plain to show off this dress, but at the same time, wanted some flesh on show because the rest of the outfit is very black and covered up.  I would wear the faux leather jacket open and the leggings and hat just felt right for this dress.  Onto the dress and wowzers, how fab is this?  I love the fun, childlike print with little mermaids and boats and all kinds of sea life.  I'm also a sucker for a collar and the plain black definitely inspired me to keep the rest of the outfit black, leaving the colourful, playful design as centrepiece but wearing it in a grown-up way.  Do you like this outfit?

Shoes: Black velvet 'Antonella' Irregular Choice 

How are you all this week?  You've already seen these shoes in brown with an orange deer and here are the black pair.  I loved them so much, I just had to get both colours.

The Shoe Girl Styles It: DSquared2 Jewel Sandals

A very Autumnal looking outfit this week, featuring these pretty jewelled platforms sandals £302 by DSquared2. They come in loads of other colours, this style is the maroon, which I think perfectly accents the collar and pattern on this lovely dress and coat. Now this is a "co ord" duo I could get behind! The coat in particular is gorgeous and provided the basis for the rest of the outfit.  I'd definitely stick to rich, rusty shades of metallic and wine throughout.  Do you like this look?

The Shoe Girl Styles It: Dorothy Perkins Black Shoe Boot

A slightly different offering from me today...yes that's jeans you see!  I was just in the mood for trousers and once I found that long line blazer, it further cemented that it had to be trousers rather than a skirt or dress.  Firstly, the shoes are pointed toe shoe-boots from Dorothy Perkins £24.50 (currently reduced, in the DP 'up to 30% off' event) and feature a 4" feel and open back with two buckled straps.  I love this Jem t-shirt from Truffle Shuffle, I had a few Jem books when I was younger and my favourite colouring book was a Jem one.  I always coloured in lips and eyes first...must be why I turned out to be so makeup obsessed!  I always wanted to be Shana, the one with the lilac 'fro, I thought her hair was the coolest thing ever!  Anyway, as for the rest of the outfit, I need these glasses in my life, they're a gorgeous shape. The bag, I almost bought yesterday before I remembered I already have an old black fluffy tote, so it would be a little indulgent to buy another.  This one is a little more structured than mine, but reasonably similar.  I just noticed they got a pinky one in today though, maybe I need that instead?!  Do you like 'Casual Wednesday'?
