My shoe woe....

Over the past few weeks I have found a diet that has been working for me , can someone say MIRACLE! But finding the shoes I plan on treating myself to when I reach my initial target is even harder!!!

I have searched everywhere including Christian Louboutin (LOVE but the odd pair I want are £1000+ or they are older rarer pairs you CANNOT find, those pesky celebs keep them tucked away!), YSL, Topshop, Kandee, Net-a-Porter, River Island, Guiseppe Zanotti, Alexander McQueen, ASOS, Nicholas Kirkwood, Kurt Geiger, Brian Atwood, Zara…*gasps for air….and anywhere else you may think of! I havent included the DP’s or New Look’s of the highstreet as although they may do some nice designs, this is a treat and they wouldn’t feel AS precious…I am going to look if any of the below aren’t around when I reach target though ; ) Hey I don’t discriminate!ha

Anywho, back on track, the challenge of finding a pair of going “out out” heels seems to have become near on impossible. Is it because the designs are soooooo samey or just too much? Or have my tastes changed? Here are the few I have found that I do like (I think)….lets see how I feel when I get there ….Initial target is 17 pounds away! I have literally just scraped over half way point…Lets do this!!!!

River Island - £55 – Like the simple shape but am I going to cut of my ankles…hhmmmm

Guiseppe Zanotti - £585 – Unsure whether I really do like these or not?

Guiseppe Zanotti - £450 – classic colour, simple peeptoe…too simple to be a treat though???

WOW…see how short the list was????

Here are the shoes that are no longer available, that I wish I could have had the chance to  purchase…I might go and cry now!

Charlotte Olympia....they do do an actual peopard print now, and a different style of this print, but this is the one I wanted!!!

Christian Louboutin banana 140 python pumps.....my first and foremost choice if anyone has them for sale!!!

Lanvin released these in 3 colour....oh this is depressing!!!

Christian Louboutin Balota 150 in royal blue suede.....I love a blue shoe...oh how I am blue!!!

Viktor and Rolf...mesh bootie!!! *tears well up...

Let me know what you think…do you have any suggestions? HELP!!!!

Enjoy

Obsessed

The entirity (well majority) of my spare time is consumed with finding my new obsession....Christian Louboutin Altadama python platforms, sold out everywhere as they are *coughs* not new on the scene...I gave up my search for the green, turqouise, OR orange Lanvin pumps from their Spring 2011 ad campaign (A ridiculously impossible task!!!)...I jus need a pair of python platforms in my life, and I won't settle for Topshop or even KG (they've gone downhill in the style stakes in my eyes)Most high street brands they look pretty but they hurt...I'd rather work my ass off (not literally I hope) and buy heels I am in love with...and these are pulling on my credit card strings....if I could find a pair for sale I would buy them!

Selfridges in Birmingham do have a similar pair currently in stock in a nude but they just aren't as oooohhh as these for me!

If you can help, comment away - but please no fakes, I couldn't do it! : (

Barbie vs. Barbz

Sooo...I was doing a little research on my previous blog & found Christian Louboutins Barbie range - only 2 have been released but it did take me back to sitting in my room with my Barbie & about 7 of my brothers Action Men (don't say it - even if your thinking it!haha) & I am telling you now, I would have given up every other toy I had if my Barbie was equipped like these.....!

First came love....

Then came marriage....

And then I found even MORE Barbie related things - your probably not that interested but I think they look A-mazing!
How can you not love Barbz... (and I was a little bit of a tomboy growing up too!)

And a little cover on these wouldn't be complete without a homage to the real life Barbie taking over the world!

If they made a doll based on these pics try and tell me you wouldn't buy it!!! God DAYYYYUUUUU...MMMNN!

Just call me shoebo...

I never discriminate against a shoe....orange, purple, leopard, spikey, strappy...whatever they may be, there definatley the accessory for me!!!

Below are my fave picks of some luxury brands - some available at Selfridges in Birmingham...I LOVE LOVE LOVE & wish I could afford ANY of the Louboutins...i'm not fussy whatever pair - if your feeling generous!!!)

Iv'e also found some alternatives at a much more affordable price all below £150 (which in my case is more suitable & in fact a treat!!!) I have my eyes on the spikey leopards from Kandee (online), the colour block coral pair from Topshop (available in town) & the ankle strap pair from River Island! ooohhh slut shoes,haha...

Sounds a bit obvious but shop in Birmingham!!! Rather than surf the net - physically go there....new shops won't open unless we are there spending...besides why wait a few days to try on something gorgeous to realise you need the next size up when The Bullring & Selfridges is open 8pm Mon-Sat & 5pm on Sundays - perfect for a little after work treat!

Over & out (i'm off to town!)
