Butterfly Twists Ballet Pumps: Review*



Butterfly Twists - Amber Zebra* (£40)

I think that we all know by now that I have a little addiction to shoes and I've always had my eye on a pair of Butterfly Twists. This lovely company is all about comfort and fashion and let's face it, we all need this on our feet, especially with the way were work and play. I work in retail so I am on my feet for 40 hours a week so I always need a pair of comfy shoes in my bag for when I'm getting home and these ballet pumps are really great for throwing on when I'm leaving work and running for the tram (which I do waaaay to often) to get home asap.

Butterfly Twists have something for everyone and there were loads of amazing styles but these were totally up my street with the cobalt blue and zebra print. I love how in your face they are and they are totally different to anything I had already and seeing as I can fold them up and pop them in my bag, it's great! They are super comfortable and they'll be coming out with me on my birthday night out (just in case) so I can dance a little better and get home easier.

What do you think of foldable shoes?

Autumn Boots Wishlist

From left to right: White Zip Front Pointed Boots // Black Leather Smart Boot // Tan Snakeskin Patchwork Block Heel Ankle Boot // Tan Shearling Lined Ankle Boot // Dark Red Patent Croc Textured Block Heel Ankle Boot // Grey Chunky Suedette Chelsea Boot // BETSY Velvet Boot // PLAY Laced Boot

I don't think you all need reminding of my little teeny weeny shoe addiction but here you go. I can't buy anymore shoes but doesn't mean I can't lust after them. This wishlist accidentally became a New Look wishlist but we all know that New Look are always on the ball with there footwear. I should know, I was a footwear specialist for them not so long ago. I think my favourite has to be either the White Zip Front Pointed Boots or the Tan Snakeskin Patchwork Block Heel Ankle Boot; both from New Look. I'd get so much wear out of each of them and I'm just swooning. I do think for everyday Autumn wear, the Black Leather Smart Boot from Clarks is perfect. Comfortable, warm and stylish, easy for a day at work.

Do you have a favourite from my Autumn Boot wishlist?

Primark Mid-Heel Buckle Shoes




Primark Mid-Heel Buckle Shoes (£14)

I think we all know now how much I love shoes by now and when I was Primark the other day, I saw these, well I saw a girl trying them on and bombarded her quite abruptly; I have a problem okay? The point of it is that I had to have them. I don't own anything like them and I can't wait to try them on with everything I own. I absolutely love the size of the heel and the closed toe; perfect for Autumn as I think they'll look cute with jeans and tights. The price is very reasonable, plus, who doesn't love a good buckle!?

What do you think of my new footwear addition?

Autumn Shoes

Shoes, oh beautiful shoes! *insert heart eyes emoticon* You know when some people say you're either a shoes or a handbag kind of woman, I am definitely shoes. With a collection that lives in many different places in my house, I think I might have a genuine problem. Naaaaaah.



These three are recent additions to my ever expanding collection but I've not actually stopped wearing them since they've arrived. Each of the three just get me through any of my shoe days, being so different and going well with so much of my wardrobe.



ASOS Astronomical Pointed Ankle Boot - £38 (ASOS) // Clarks Navy Suede Brogues - £25 (Clarks - similar) // Vans Authentic ASPCA Kittens - £30 (Office)

The ASOS Astronomical Pointed Ankle Boot is came across I was randomly searching the ASOS pages and fell in love instantly. They came in 5 styles but the snakeskin versions have left a wriggly imprint on my heart. They are comfortable and just finish off any outfit nicely. For the next pair, I'm going to be that annoying blogger that shows you something you won't be able to find but they truly haven't been off my feet since I bought them. The Clarks Navy Suede Brogues are actually the most comfortable shoe I own. I can wear these without any socks (sexy, I know) and from day one I didn't have any rubbing or pain in any shape or form. I was stunned. They are cute as a button and who doesn't love a good brogue in their collection!? Talking of cute as a button, with the Vans Authetic ASPCA Kittens, there are kittens on my shoes, KITTENS. Seriously, Vans are an iconic brand now and nearly everybody will have a pair in their arsenal; mine just happen to have kittens on them. Could I really say no?

Spring shoes

I don't know if you guys know, but I am a bona fide shoes addict. Ask my mum, she'll definitely tell you I have a genuine problem (I've just bought another pair whilst searching for the link for one of the above, help!) I thought I might as well put this addiction to good use and do a little post about my current Spring shoes. The first pair I actually blogged about a few days ago (here) and they really are just the loveliest little pair of mid-heel shoes from Topshop. I'm only 5ft so any height from my shoes are a welcome bonus but they are comfortable enough to wear to work for a 9 hour shift. This moves me onto my next pair and the New Look offering are the most stunning real leather pair of peeptoe heels; I am so in love with them. They are comfortable enough, especially for a block heel but the zip front has just made me swoon over and over again. For the final pair, I'm going to be one of those annoying people that gives you something that is sold out but I can't not show you these. These lovely pixie boots are just my absolute dream and I've pretty much not taken them off since I bought them. The buckle is so cute and I love the snakeskin detail as well. Even bigger swoon!

Barton Mid-Heel Shoes (£35) - Topshop

Have you ever just looked at a pair of shoes and instantly fallen in love? Well, that's what has just happened to me with the above beauties. Topshop really do excel themselves with shoes and every year, around this time, I find my perfect S/S shoes and wear them to death. What I love about the Barton Mid-Heel Shoes is that they are the ideal S/S shoe. I'll probably wear them now with a cute pair of glittery socks and then barefoot in the summer showing off my tootsies. It's the little details that I love so much as well; the stitching at the bottom and the grey on the heel just finishes the shoe off! I was all too happy to fork out £35 for a decent pair of shoes that I will definitely be getting so much wear out of, and they come in three more colours if grey isn't your thing. I'm actually debating going back and getting the tan to go with a few of my 70s outfits!

What do you think of my new favourite shoes?
