It's a shoe thing!

Evening guys,


I am so sorry for my complete absence on the bloggersphere summer has just taken over, i had a wonderful week off in Paris and enjoyed the Rock en Seine festival (More about that in another post) my birthday and also the Eid! A very busy August!

So this post is LOOOOOONG overdue! 

Anyone who knows me, knows i am a complete and utter shoe and bag hag. I think it's in every woman to be obsessed with shoes and bags. For me recently it's been a shoe thing and it's not just me, Shoe designers are getting some amazing recognition via online shopping and stores...here are some must have shoes from some must have shoe designers:

Simone Rocha

Not only does designer of the moment Simone have to die for ready to wear, she has also conquered the shoe market, with her quirky feminine style mixed with modern textures. Perspex heels, shoes, glitter and PVC.....What more do you want?! 


 



Simone Rocha is available on Selfridges online and in stores, Net a PorterThe Corner and Browns  in store and online.

Sophia Webster

I am so in love with Sophia Webster, who celebrated her shoe success with opening a pop up in Burlington Arcade. The shoes have been praised and worshipped by bloggers and of course celebrities....Rihanna has her own pair named after her.




 



Sophia Webster is stocked at Selfridges online and in store, MatchesSophia Webster online store and Net-a-Porter
Chanel

Master of the the ballerinas, Chanel keeps raising their shoe game every season. From ballerinas to espadrilles, what more do you need for your everyday shoes? Act 1 of AW is a sea of girly quilted perfection, staple shoes and winter/autumn essentials  where as Act 2 is tough and edgy with everything being chain round....

This season Mr Louboutin twists his classics with contrasting fabrics, mixing patent with felt, plastic with patent, and mixing his spikes up. Tough and bright combined for a winter of fun loubies high and low!

Dior

Raf Simons has shown that he truly is the best fit for Dior championing fashion and Couture week and gaining a strong and young following, i am seriously cooing over these flats.....






Balenciaga

What can i say about Balenciaga? wow.... amazing! With this being the release of the first collection under the creative direction of Alexander Wang the whole collection is highly anticipated. A few pieces from previous collections from Nicolas Ghesquiere....yep the cut out ceinture boots! These boots were top of my list since they were released last year and i was lucky to find a pair in Paris this week but a few different styles have been released too.



My sister trying the boots on at Liberty. 



Eeeek i am so happy i have these now! It was a no brainer as soon as they were put on my feet in the Rue Saint Honorè store.


What is everyone's favourite style/ designer. Is there a brand you truly stick to whether it be high street or designer?
