I’m showing you the backs of these shoes first because I think they’re the best bit. Of course, I would say that, so for the benefit of those of you who’d really like to see what they look like from the front, thanks very much, here you go:

See? Better from the back, huh?

That’s not to say they’re not pretty from the front too, of course, because they are, but probably not £75 of “pretty” – or not for me, anyway. If they do it for you, however, just click here to buy them from Topshop.

I was seriously tempted by these shoes a couple of days ago, and if it hadn’t been for the fact that I’d just ordered a pair of black pumps (more of which when they arrive), I’d quite possibly have succumbed. Well, they’re pretty affordable at £35, they come in a versatile pewter or a shiny black, and they have that cute little bow on the back, too:  lovely!

I also notice that ASOS.com have added a much better zoom facility to their website, so you get a far better idea of what the shoes will actually look like in person. In close-up, the black version of these look much prettier than they do in the smaller product shot, so it’s worth taking a look if you think you might like them.
