Category Archives: SandalsRiver Island light pink leather triple bow sandals
While the triple bow and double buckle may seem a little fussy at first, I have a feeling these would look stunning on a foot, and would be the kind of sandals that would look equally good with jeans as they would with dresses. Those of you who aren’t obliged to wear all of your shoes by next January, and who can therefore justify the purchase of a pair of strappy sandals, can click here to buy them from River Island. I, meanwhile, will have to be content with simply admiring them from afar.

Most wanted from our sponsorsKG by Kurt Geiger ‘Imogene’ glitter platform sandals
We’re used to Kurt Geiger bringing us beautiful shoes and sophisticated shoes, so now it’s time for them to bring us a pair of totally extravagant shoes, and these Imogene sandals are just that. With glitter, bows (three of ‘em) and crystals, they’ve gone all-out to make these as sparkly and as girlie as it gets, and I think they’ve succeeded. Is it all too much? Well, possibly. But with a plain enough dress, these could just be perfect, too. They’re £160 at Kurt Geiger website – click here to buy them. French Connection green and gold ‘Gillian’ sandals with brooch detail
I really should spend more time checking out French Connection’s shoes, shouldn’t I? If I’d done that, I’d have had a been able to show you these ‘Gillian’ sandals much sooner. Still, better late than never, so here they are, in all of their green satin upper, gold-bow-and-brooch glory. You’re going to need a close-up of that bow to be able to really appreciate it, though:
There we go. It has “Shoeperwoman” written all over it (although not literally, obviously: that would just be weird), doesn’t it? If these have your name written all over them too, click here to buy them from Kurt Geiger, and don’t forget to leave me a comment to make me jealous…

Roberto Cavalli feather embellished t-bar sandals
As for the shoes themselves, well, take away the feather and you’d be left with a simple but elegant pair of silver sandals, of the kind that will easily see you through as many evenings out as you want them to. It’s a good job, too, because at £730 you’re going to have to wear them a lot of times to get your money’s worth!

KG by Kurt Geiger rabbit print platform ‘Indie’ sandals
Clunk shape? Chunky heel? Quirky animal print? It’s all gone a little bit Miu Miu around here, hasn’t it? Of course, Kurt Geiger’s ‘Indie’ platform sandals wouldn’t be mistaken for Miu Miu, but they do buy into the same kind of aesthetic the designer brand has been famous for this season, albeit KG are using rabbits rather than cats or swallows as their animal print of choice.
A year or so ago, I’d probably have been rolling my eyes at these and saying, “Rabbits? Really?” but there’s a phenomenon in fashion which I think of as “adjustment of the eye”, whereby repeated exposure to a particular trend makes it slowly start to seem more appealing to you, even although you may have hated it at first sight. (I think skinny jeans are a great example of this for me: when they first started to become popular I actually laughed at the thought of wearing them – now they’re the only kind of jeans I EVER wear) I think that’s started to happen for me with this style of shoe, and with animal prints in general, so rather than looking at these and just seeing an oddly clumpy shoe, I’m actually finding myself thinking of ways to wear them, instead. What about you? If you like these too, then simply click here to buy them for £130.

Diego Dolcini patent python sandals
Diego Dolcini’s Autumn/Winter 2010 collection uses a whole lot of python skin, but it’s been rendered almost unrecognizable in this shoe at least, which looks more like something you’d find in a museum of modern art than on someone’s feet. Mixing pink, blue, green, purple and hold, these are also a mix of shapes and patterns, which zip up the back of the 4.3 inch heels. What do you think of them? They’re £580 at Louisa Via Roma. Pale green strappy clogs from Miss Selfridge
I’m sure you’re all probably tired of hearing how “hot” clogs are this season by now: I know I am. For some reason, though, that doesn’t stop me coveting these pale green platforms by Miss Selfridge. They’re just clog-like enough to give a cursory nod to the trend, if such things are important to you, but not quite clog-like enough to make people ask how you enjoyed your holiday in Holland. They’re also a colour that’s guaranteed to get my attention at least: I love that pale green upper! These are £45 and you can buy a pair here.
