Whoops! I spent the grocery money on shoes… again! Instagram: @talktomyshoes
Despite great intentions of blogging on a regular basis again, life takes over as you know it; Summer arrives, writing motivation comes in inconsistent bursts, you wake up in the middle of the Atlantic ocean one morning, return home, and then it is 8:30 in the morning and you feel the urge to finally write about some gorgeous Louis Vuitton sandals that have been sitting on your desktop for the last four months. The thick straps and stud detail really pulls the edgy rocker chick in me in, while the beautiful craftsmanship and thin ankle straps add a slight delicate touch to the overall design. In all honestly they initially reminded me a bit of the Isabel Marant sandals that were reaching cult status about three years ago. I think the addition of the brown monogram makes these sandals even more versatile than if they were just black, or just brown.
I stumbled across these on instagram and while yes, this exact pair is a men’s shoe, I am nonetheless crazy about it and wishing I could just convert the sizing to fit me. The Gancini Sneaker Shoe by my beloved Salvatore Ferragamo comes in a multitude of colours and finishes for women but I have yet to see a pair quite like this one. I don’t mean wrong as in it is wrong to shop in the opposite section, that isn’t the problem. I mean the wrong shoe that is so right for you, but isn’t possibly available.
I think I am just talking about the oversized studded platform designs by CL that I can’t stand. They remind me of those beautiful warm toned neutral eyeshadow palettes that have a pop of blue or a pop of burnt red shadow in them. Sorry not sorry, because can we just take pause and notice the embossed leather heel cap as well? I have no other words, just one last thought: that these are some of the most beautiful Christian Louboutin follies I have ever seen.
At the start of the month I shared with you some pieces from the Gucci Bengal collection but purposely left out one of my favourite pieces from my own collection: my Gucci Bengal slippers. I thought they were far too special to be presented alongside other Gucci pieces and as this is a shoe-focused blog, why not shine the spotlight on them? Gucci’s Princetown slippers continue to be iconically trendy and somewhat notorious among the fashion crowd
