Colour for my Sole

I am still partly in a turkey induced coma, having eaten and drunk too much yesterday. Tis the season anyway! I thoroughly enjoyed myself and am now looking forward to next year and what I am going to be wearing. I am going to do a mini review of last year in terms of fashion! What I loved  hated etc. For now I want to focus on a trend which has been emerging and I see it getting bigger...

Coloured soles, yes you heard right and now I have said it you will be seeing them everywhere. Although the most popular colour seems to be white and pink. I think Stella McCartney began the trend with some black pointy heeled boots with white soles. Here are some of my favourite shoes:

Black Canvas boots from Topshop

Black leather cut out boots from Topshop

Navy leather brouges by Esquivel

 

Black leather lace ups by Daniel Pallilo X Triple Major

Black patent mary jane shoes by Prada

 

The original Stella McCartney AW12 boot with white soles



New Year, New Me...

Well I hope everyone had a great New year, for myself, it was a ridiculously drunken affair. When I say drunken affair I mean me being sick across a table in a club!! I am fair to old to be getting in that state and my number 1 New Years res will be to treat alcohol with respect and not over indulge.

I don't know if you are like me, but ushering in the New Year alway makes me reflect back on the past year and its fashion choices. This year at the grand old age of 26, I want my fashion choices to be more chic and classic but at the same time contemporary and slightly avant-garde. I want to push that fashion button with great vigour!!!

I am very behind with the state of fashion for SS11 but from what I have seen I am totally going to be a Fendi, Prada and Roksanda Illinic girl. I will channel Fendi for relaxed daywear, I will use Prada for inspiration for day and beach wear (I love a good stripe) and Roksanda will be strictly a whimsical evening or day to night partnership. No one loves a bit of chiffon more than me!!! See images below of my favourite Roksanda Illinic SS11 looks x

I have already mentioned my love of shorts, and will definitely embrace this garment whole-heartedly into my wardrobe. My key find is going to be work shorts and more importantly a short suit. I am going shopping tomorrow and so lets see what thay brings to light!!!! I'll keep you informed...
