SC - Day 5 - KG Pewter & Tan T Bars

Hello!

This is going to be a brief post but my shoes today were these beautiful beautiful KG shoes.

(Apologies for the crap photo - needs must when the only camera I have is on my BB)

These are from my UBS Investment banking days. The first time I saw them were on the feet of one of the female managers in my team. I swear they took my breath away and I stopped listening in the meeting. I had to ask her where she bought them and trotted off myself to get a pair. I've had them for about 5? years now and I stil love them. The mix of pewter(new fave word)/silver and tan is ingenious. I can't remember but I daresay they were one of my first KGs.

SC - Day 4 Pink Beverly Feldman Day

I was going to put up a post yesterday but i got busy so i'm doing 2 today! yay!

Yesterday was a pink day for me. I dont normally do pink but i needed to wear something light cos it's soo hot in london. I wore a baby pink top and a black skirt but then decided to go all matchy matchy and wear pink shoes.

Beverly Feldman is (was) one of my favourite shoe designers. She's a bit hit and miss sometimes but when she's good she's REALLY good. She's also quite affordable on sale and does really unique pieces. I get most of my flats from her now and a few of her heels every now and then. there's usually at least 1 or 2 things I want every season but I hated the last 2. Fingers crossed she gets out of her creative slump or rehires the person who was designing for her!

First were my flats into work. They are not exactly pink but they are very pale ... i dont know what to call them - champagne/nude coloured? They are my Beverly Feldman jewelled flats. I got them last year and near killed them with over wear.

They are just soo comfy and have the tiniest heel but feel like ballet pumps. And they are soo cute! I was in the lift with a director once and upon noticing them said they had to be the most interesting shoes he's ever seen. I was a bit worries at first that the jewels will make it a bit too much for work but I usually change into heels when I get in. On the few times I forget, i dont care - my office can always do with a bit of sparkle.

On a quest to wear my all my shoes at least once this year, I brought these pink peep top Bev felds.

They are baby pink with the cutest bow. I think these were the 2nd pair of BFs I bought. I almost wore the first ones today (mustard with lilac polka dots and lilac bow - will blog about them later).

I dont often wear them cos like I said - dont do pink that much but they were too cute not to buy and every now and then I have a girly day.

SC - Day 3 - Black Guess slingbacks & Sergio Rossi Katia Trapeze Wedges

These are old faithfuls that sit beneath my desk. I bought them on an impulse in Miami - about 3/4(?) years ago. I dont normally wear sling backs as they never stay on. I dont know if my heel isn't arched enough or what it is but they never grip and always slide down. As you can imagine walking is a nightmare.

I think I just tried these on for a lark and they looked soo sexy I just had to have them. the contrast with cork also does it for me :-) Plus they are peep toes again - couldn't resist

(so my trends are - peep toes, wedges, cork - lolll you will see those repeated a lot in my collection).

Luckily - they fit and manage to stay on without too much effort. I mainly wear them in the office so haven't really tested them for wearing to go out. I wouldn't wear them out though as I have other black shoes (plus I realise I barely wear plain black shoes out - I only have 1 pair that I would consider wearing out - I have another but it's all blinged out so doesnt count ;-)

The white slippers I wore in to work today are liz claibourne flats.. They are actually my mum's but I intend to borrow them a lot so they will more or less become mine. :-D

Was going to do a post friday but was reeling from MJs death and I wore my basic black flats to work - i'll do a post with them at some point. I might just do Mon - Thurs posts on my SC as fridays is usually casual so I mostly wear my flats. Over the weekend - I went out saturday and wore my Sergio Rossi Katia Trapeze wedges

I bought these last year at a sample sale. These exact ones in white and brown. I love how from the back they look like stilletos then you see the wings at the side.

Hope you had a great weekend and have a good week!

SC - Day 2 - D-Havz Wedges & Bev Felds Slippers

As today is day 2 (and 2 is my favourite number), I'll be showing 2 of my babies! I wear flats/slippers (depending on the weather) into work and then change into my heels. I also happen to have 3 pairs of black shoes at work but we'll come to that later ...

Right so I wore these slippers into work today.

I call them my Cinnamon Rose Slippers cos well you can see why. I normally like my slippers more dainty - these have a wide flat bottom but they are comfy and cute. They are like my flip flops especially on holiday.

I'm wearing a black dress today that I lost wore on holiday in Nig about 2 christmases ago so I decided to wear the wedges I wore then as well. Also haven't worn them in a while.

D-Havz is the diffusion range by Terry de Havilland of the yummy artistic wedges that I want! (Available on sale now @ My-Wardrobe from £185!)

They are super high and a little big so I dont wear them often (i always have that slapping sound you get when you wear flipflops, and I'm not crazy about ties that wrap around your ankles anymore) but they are super sexy. You should have seen the way I was strutting today on the street. There is definitely something about women in heels ... :-D

Have a lovely day people!

Shoe Collection - Nude Glitter KGs

I've decided that I'm goign to start wearing all my shoes this summer - I'm going to wear a different one each day and see how far I get without having to repeat. Give me a chance to wear all my shoes at least once this year, count how many I have and sort out which ones I really should give away/dispose of - lol.

Today's are these really pretty KG shoes I bought some time last year. I remember going to the event with Bukky and getting what is now my fav lipstick in the goody bag.

Please ignore my big sticky out toe - it's the way i've angled my feet. You can't tell but I'm sitting down here with my foot lying on it's side - this picture has been rotate a couple of times ...

The bad in front is patent whereas the main body is like a beigy sateeny material. You can see it from this angle but the platform that shows through the peephole in front also has the silver glitter on it. Actually ... I decided to take another photo :-D

Hmmm - this photo is indicating that perhaps my babies need cleaning ...

But yeah. My babies - number 1. I still love these - although if i'm honest I have these D&G nudes that have overtaken them in my affections. The silver glitter also means I can't quite wear it with absolutely anything (as you are wont to with nudes) but I was feeling very playful and flirty today. As you can see from the top corner I'm wearing a black and white check skirt (that I got from Bebe ages ago which I still love). Haven't quite progressed to taking photos of my outfits yet (especially as I mostly dont make an effort except when I'm going out) but from time to time if I'm looking extra cute ... we'll see.

Have a lovely day!
