I love when Marc by Marc Jacobs shoes go on sale - how else is a girl to afford them? And since I love most things adorned with a bow, you can imagine how much I want to buy these Marc by Marc Jacobs floral ballet slippers. Covered in 100% silk (these will definitely have to be sprayed with a fabric protector before use) they feature a large bow at the back heel. Just imagine how pretty they would look with a floaty summer dress or to dress up a simple denim mini. They've been marked down from £174 to an affordable £118.
There's something a little bit cartoonish about these platform peep toes from Miss Selfridge - so much so that even although I'm drawn to the slightly retro style of them, I still can't help but wonder whether they'd make me look like Minnie Mouse if I actually tried to wear them.
Aside from that oversized vamp, however, the red heel and piping is a nice touch, and £35 is a good price for a new pair of shoes. Get them at MissSelfridge.com.
Well, that's one way to eliminate the problem of deciding which colour of shoes to buy! These New Look flats are also available in a slightly more restrained black and white stripe, but seeing as it's summer, you may as well go out and wear all the colours of the rainbow (well, almost) on your feet. These are £20, and at least no one will be able to accuse you of being dull and boring in your choice of footwear when you slip them on...
Since Yves Saint Laurent passed away a few weeks ago, the demand for his 1968 fall collection has gone through the roof according to WWD. What better time to go hunting for vintage YSL shoes than now? I found these vintage YSL green suede pumps on DorothyandEvelyn.com, picked up from New York City, they're a 1970s style pump and embellished with green sequins. They're not a bad pick up for $199.95AUD (approx USD$192 or £96). They sort of remind me a little of the not-in-style bootie, but unfortunately they are only available in a size 7.
Ever wanted to get a pen or paint brush to your shoe and just great an amazing pattern? I've often considered it but I don't think I have that much artistic ability and worry that the shoe would turn out like a paint-filled mess. But here's a nifty little clip that gave me some inspiration, and all you need is some pens and a cheap pair of cotton ballet flats and away you go. Who needs to spend hundred of dollars on a cute Murakami for Louis Vuitton print shoe when you can DIY and no one else will have that shoe?
My-Wardrobe's sale is still going with items reduced by up to 80%, and there are some real bargains to be had. I've picked my three favourite shoes from the sale, and they're all great chunky summer sandals. Team the middle pair with a maxidress to give it a bit of chic, while the other two would look great with some mannish trousers or some cutoff jeans. See after the jump for product links.
I can almost hear the cries of 'bor-ring' bouncing back at me off the screen, but these two-tone wedge sandals by Lotus are the sort of easy summer shoes I can see myself developing an unhealthy attachment to.
Their basic shape is a tried and tested slip-on style, but 2008 has stamped its mark all over them, with the two-tone crossover straps and their hippyish blush finish. These would look adorable with a floaty, feminine skirt while the buff-coloured leather works wonders for your tan. They're also a steal at £29.95
