Slurge, Spend or Save - Sale Away

With manic sales arising I thought I would give you the tips I use when considering what to purchase.
1. Don't buy things because it's cheap.
2.Think about you're style and whether you'd wear it again,
3. Don't be scared of the slightly more crazy pieces because they do end up being a fabulous cheap investment.
4. However also pick classic pieces that you know you'll treasure forever.
5. Shop by size! Don't buy things that won't fit you.

Booty-licious for you babe

So A/W collections have all come into stock now, after attending London and Paris Fashion Week in February I think it's time for some lovely trending. I hate looking for boots. I find so many which look delicious but I always find I look hideous and fat legged in them. However this year I plan to make it my ultimate goal to find a nice pair of heeled and flat boots this A/W. I have my eye on a few but dread to see what they look like on me as I'm a fussy one and will not stand for anything that doesn't look fabulous. There are currently a lot of suede fabrics, chunky heels and chelsea boots reinvented.

Here are the heeled boots I have my sneaky eye on:

Office

Now £48

I'd buy them in a heartbeat if they had my bloody size, so I shall have to ring around!

 Shoeaholics

Now: £39

Very similar to the last pair but obviously there's a look i'm going for, online buys' are tricky though...

ASOS

Now: £35

The shape of the toe area looks a bit like the beak of a bird for me, hmmm...

Zara

£59.99

Bit more expensive, but could be worth it. Have to try them on though, the wooden heel against the black leather is gorgeous though!

Topshop
£80
This has suede, leather and the little elasticated bit which incorperates the chelsea boot style. Perfect!

 

Kurt Geiger

Now £59

Less of a heel and a little more casual, I think these boots have lots potential to look great.
