Category Archives: Peep ToesValentino peep toe rosette shoesI know Valentino like to stick to the same kind of style with some of their shoes, but I can’t help but love them for it, because it happens to be a style I wholeheartedly approve of! These peep-toe rosette pumps are just stunning: the pale pink colour is delicate and lovely, while the over-sized rose on the toe adds just the right amount of extravagance. Perfect for a special occasion, or even for a bride (look, I’m doing best to justify the $795 price, OK?), you can click here to buy them from Neiman Marcus: or even just to admire them from afar. I know I will. Most wanted from our sponsorsDune red ‘Jackpot’ peep toes with chiffon bowThe first ever pair of Christian Louboutin shoes I fell in love with were a style called Moon Bow. This was a good few years ago now, Louboutin’s designs weren’t nearly as well-known as they subsequentky became, and these were just the most beautiful shoes I’d ever seen. They were red, patent, and they had a fabulous little chiffon bow on the front. They looked absolutely nothing like Dune’s ‘Jackpot’ peep toes, pictured above, but the colour and bow reminded me of them nonetheless, and while these aren’t quite Louboutin, I think they’re still pretty cute. If you do, too, these are £85, they’re also available in animal print, and you can click here to buy yourself a pair! Kate Spade grey flannel ‘Bertie’ peep toe pumpsAs you may have seen from last week’s Louboutin fix, I’m really loving the idea of grey flannel for Fall. If the heel’s on those Loubs were too high for your tastes, however, Kate Spade’s ‘Bertie’ peep toes come with a more modestly sized heel which, combined with the small platform, should make them even easier to walk on. The grey flannel uppers are topped with a large flower embellishment, and if you’re thinking the peep toe isn’t too practical for the coming season, well, you can always consider wearing them with tights. These cost $340 and are also available with black suede uppers. Click here to buy them from Zappos. New Shoes! Nude patent peep toes from Sepatu LondonGifts that come in shoe boxes are always the very best gifts of all, as far as I’m concerned, and this week I was lucky enough to be sent a pair of shoes as a gift from Sepatu London. Sepatu’s goal is to make beautiful shoes at affordable prices. My goal, meanwhile, is to BUY beautiful shoes at affordable prices, so obviously we were a pretty good match, and when I found these nude patent peep toes, I knew I’d found my shoes, as I’ve been looking for this style for a while now. Aldo Demar black patent curve-sided peep toesThanks to Shoeperwoman reader Monica, who sent me a link to these ‘Demar’ peep toes by Aldo, thinking I might like them. She was absolutely spot-on, too, because I absolutely love these shoes, which would’ve been classic and elegant even without the wavy sides, buy which become really special with them. These are £60, and are also available in a dark grey upper, which I don’t like quite as much, but which would probably prove just as versatile as the black versions. Click here to buy them in either shade.

D&G gold sequin peep toe stilettosAs today is Non-Casual Friday, I thought I’d show you a pair of appropriately non-casual shoes. These ones from D&G certainly fit the bill, being encrusted with gold sequins which look like they’ll be constantly catching the light and looking even sparklier than they actually are. The temptation would be to pair these with something equally dressy, but I actually really like the way the folks at My-Wardrobe have styled them: with a simple pair of jeans and a tailored jacket: a really easy way to work a non-casual element into even the most casual of Fridays. Pink bow-front peep toe shoes by Marta JonssonI stumbled upon these shoes on a particularly dreary day last week, and the candy pink colour certainly helped cheer me up, as did the classic, bow-fronted peep toe design. These look a little bit like adult-sized Barbie shoes, and while that might be as off-putting to some of you as it’ll be attractive to others, these are also available in slightly more versatile black and white versions. These are by Marta Jonsson and are £95 from Viva la Diva . | |||||||
