Brian Atwood denim peep toe slingbacks with gem stones

brian atwood denim shoes Brian Atwood denim peep toe slingbacks with gem stones

We’ve discussed denim shoes before here at Shoeperwoman, and the consensus generally seems to be that, with a few notable exceptions, denim and shoes should not mix.

We’ve also discussed gemstones on shoes, and come to more or less the same conclusion: that if there’s too many of them, they can look just a little bit cheap.

I pretty much agree with both of those conclusions, and yet… and yet I have a feeling that if I were to see these Brian Atwood slingbacks in person, I’d probably love them. Maybe even a lot. I’m not saying I’d buy them, obviously: in fact, given that they’re £965 I can say with some confidence that I definitely WOULDN’T buy them, no matter HOW much I loved them (I value my marriage too much), but I’d maybe want to.

Would you? If so, you can get them at Colette.

Distressed denim wedges by Ash

Denim wedges

Distressed denim has never really gone out of fashion for some people, but it’s been particularly popular this year, with lots and lots of ripped jeans in the store – in fact, just a couple of months ago I remember complaining on Twitter about how hard it was to find a new pair of jeans, because every single pair seemed to have giant holes in them.

Now, I’m not opposed to the odd bit of distressing on a pair of jeans, but on shoes? I’m just not so sure, although part of the problem here may be that I’ve never really been keen on denim shoes in the first place. These Ash wedges aren’t just denim, though, they’re distressed denim: what do we think of that, readers? Like it? Loathe it? Tell me!

Viktor & Rolf bow front wedge sandals

I don’t normally like shoes designed go look like they’re made from denim, but I DO like these ones by Viktor and Rolf and I’m sure you can see why! These are everything that’s adorable, from the blue and red mix, to the perfectly-shaped little bow on the front. I also love the crossover straps and curved sides : a lovely little summer shoe, and one that will work perfectly with the ongoing nautical trend.

These are £295 at Yoox.com
