Tuesday= Shoesday


As you may know, I'm a shoe-o-holic, this seasons hottest shoe trend that I am absolutely loving has to be Gladiator sandals, both heels and flats. There is a price range and style to to suit everyone.

I love number 5, they have that boho chic vibe about them that I think would look amazing this festival season.

Be still my beating heart those Sophia Websters are beautiful check them out here on Kendall Jenner.

The weather is so iffy in London, as far as I'm concerned summer is over but I'm still trying to squeeze every last drop, so even though its raining every second day, every now and then there is a bit of sunshine.Also these shoes would still be perfect for a holiday, so book that trip, yep just so you can wear these beautiful shoes!!

My Favourite Places to Shop Online



Ok, so dont let the title of this post fool you, I'm not the biggest fan of online shopping. I like being able to touch and feel the material and carefully inspect what I am buying. Being petite (I'm 4'11) means there is always the worry that something wont fit properly and I hate doing online shopping returns.

However these days I find that I am ordering online more and more so here are my favourite stores.

Occasion Dresses
Vlabel London is a sister company of Virgos Lounge. Their dresses are stunning and at sale season the price is absolutely crazily low. Don't forget to check out the FINAL SALE tab. You wont be disappointed. 
This was my last purchase.
 

One Stop Shop
Missguided has got to be my favourite online shop. Trendy and classic pieces at great quality and price, what more could a girl ask for. At the moment I'm really loving their heels, bodysuits and pencil midi skirts.

Heels
 I love Kurt Geiger heels, they never disappoint and this seasons collection, is amazing
Top of my wishlist are these babies......I need them in my life!!!!
The only downside is that these shoes are quite pricey, but sale season you can get a bargain.

Heels 2
Matalan
Ladies do not sleep on Matalan, I love their heels, they don't always get it right, but when they do please know that you will have a gorgeous shoe at a ridiculously low price.
I have bought so many shoes there over the past couple of years that I still get so many compliments on.
So don't sleep on Matalan !
These will be my next Purchase at only £15.00

Cuff Detail Sandal


I have to give an honorary mention to ASOS, Topshop and New Look

Even though I'm not the biggest fan of online shopping there is nothing like the feeling of when your items arrive in the post.
So I guess I will keep on shopping.

Sail Away With Me


Blogging oh how I have missed you.
These days I have been loving shopping at smaller boutiques, don't get me wrong, I'm still loving   High Street chain stores like Primark and Zara but I love wearing an outfit and knowing that its very unlikely that someone will be wearing the same thing. Mass production is just a little too much for me right now.
 So the dress is from a a small store in North London called French Kiss, the large sailor style collar was something that I was really drawn to the exposed zip, I know its not everyone's cup of tea, but for me I really don't mind. The print is an embossed diamond shape.  

How could I leave this dress behind. I would have had serious buyers remorse. 
So it came home with me.


 











Dress: French Kiss
Heels: Christian Louboutin 120mm Pigalle (old shape)
Clutch: H & M
