Top Five Pointed Shoes From Spring Summer 2013

Spring Summer 2013 brought many shoe options;

some were wedged, some had flatforms,

but the shoes I'm interested in are of the elegant, pointed variety.

Here are my top five:

 Plaid mules by Dries Van Noten.

Rectangular small heeled court shoes with bows and extreme pointy toes by Louis Vuitton.

My favourite; strappy lucite heels with studs in a nude colour by Valentino.

Two toned, patent high heeled slingbacks from Miu Miu.

Colourful Sicily inspired printed kitten heels by Dolce & Gabbana.

Do you like this kind of shoe and what do you think of my choices?

Shoes Today. What Tomorrow?

Hello!

Have you ever typed 'what do your shoes say about you' in to the Google search box? It's okay if you haven't.
I got a mad notion to do just that.

Apparently a 'Croc wearer is a health care worker who, after a long day at work, is able to come home without having to take their beloved Crocs off'. Generalising health care workers, anyone? Shame I am neither a health care worker nor or a fan of Crocs.

Someone who wears Ugg boots are just being themselves according to the same source. (Click here for the full article.) I used to wear Ugg boots. I loved them. They were are so warm and comforting. However, that was then (circa 2006, 2007) and this is now. The nearest I have to possessing a pair of Ugg boots are my leopard print Ugg slippers. I am looking at them right now. And yes, they are warm and comforting. Exactly what slippers are supposed to be like. (Not of the sexy kind, obviously.)

My shoe collection is small. I like flat shoes. During the day and during the night. Of course, I own some high heels. For ''special occasions''. Or those occasions when I am in the mood for wearing them. I know that when it comes to heels no pain, no gain is their motto. However, I'd much prefer no pain at all. I don't know what that says about me? Weak, perhaps.

I wish I had more jazzy flats, though. So, I paid Net-A-Porter a visit. Hello, Miu Miu. I would wear Miu Miu heels. I would wear Miu Miu flats. 

Question: What do your shoes say about you?

Answer: That I am a Miu Miu-er. (Explanation: Buys Miu Mius shoes. Flats & heels alike. Feet give out if any other brand is worn.)

Fly Away

Still obsessed with 'the' Miu Miu bird. I bought this keyring today. Is it Miu Miu, I hear you ask? Absolutely! Absolutely not, more like. But it is a nice copy.

Keyrings are fashionable accessories. Not only are they fashionable, they are personal, too.  They always have a meaning, which can be obvious or hidden. To me, a bird symbolises a lot of things, including freedom. My keyring collection has been quite diverse over the years, from an Eiffel Tower, to my name (just in case I forgot it), to a handbag and shoe. This bird is my favourite. Time to spread my wings and fly away, me thinks!

What kind of a keyring do you have at the moment?

Scrooge, I am not

'Why do girls wear high heels?' This question was thrown at me by an unsuspecting boy on Saturday night. 'Because they look good, I replied.' These clog boots are quite fashionable, but wow, do they hurt! Quite. A. Lot. I thought Party Feet might ease the pain, haha, that's just how deluded I am. But hey, at least they look good, right?

It is the season to be jolly, but Christmas can get quite hectic. However, if you want to be more festive and fashionable, just throw on a slinky red dress, grab a glass of whatever tickles your fancy and sit back & relax in a giant martini glass. Mrs. Reindeer below is a good example of being very fashionably festive. Cheers!

Just a bit of fun for the 20th of December! Five more sleeps 'til Santa.
