KG by Kurt Geiger Echinacea detachable bow platforms now available in more colours

kg by kurt geiger echinacea pumps KG by Kurt Geiger Echinacea detachable bow platforms now available in more colours

I know I’ve already shown you the red version of Kurt Geiger’s Echinacea pumps, but you’ll have to forgive me for showing you them again, because as soon as I saw these three new colourways, well, I just couldn’t help myself.

I wasn’t sure about the detachable bow feature of the red version of these, and I’m STILL not sure about it on the leopard print version in the centre of the image above: in fact, I think it looks a little cheap. I absolutely love the nude and black versions, however, and have instantly added the nude ones to my wish list: they’re such a great colour and shape, and would look good with or without the lace bow.

What do you think of these? If you love them, just click here to buy yourself a pair – they’re £150.

KG by Kurt Geiger stripe ‘Dancer’ pumps with bow

kg by kurt geiger dancer pumps KG by Kurt Geiger stripe Dancer pumps with bowI’ve looked at these ‘Dancer’ pumps by Kurt Geiger so many times now that I’d actually convinced myself I must have already shown you them. As it turns out, I’d just been showing them to myself, which is of no use to anyone (and least of all to my bank account), so here they are for your viewing pleasure.

Stripes and bows make these a surefire winner for yours truly, and I also like the black and white combination, which I think will look great with black opaque tights. If you’d prefer a different colour, though, well, just take a look under the jump!

KG by Kurt Geiger ‘Imogene’ glitter platform sandals

kg by kurt geiger imogene glitter sandals KG 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.

KG by Kurt Geiger rabbit print platform ‘Indie’ sandals

kurt geiger indie rabbit print shoes 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.

Miss KG ‘Minnie’ bow platform court shoes

miss kg minnie platform pumps Miss KG Minnie bow platform court shoes

This week Kurt Geiger continued with their mission to drive me to shoe bankruptcy (are there shoe-shelves in the debtor’s jail? I hope so.), bringing out a new secret weapon in the shape of these “Minnie” pumps.

Now, I can see where they got the name, here: these do have a slightly cartoonish, Minnie Mouse quality to them, but paired with something relatively simple, I think they could be fairly easy to style. (Or, what the hell, pair them with something equally eye-catching. You only live once, after all!) I particularly like the grey and pink colour mix here: it gives them a lovely, soft look, and the suede bow adds to that.

As these are from Kurt Geiger’s lower-priced Miss KG range, the price isn’t absurdly high, either: they’re £75 from here.

KG by Kurt Geiger blue patent and red leather Adalia mid-heel peep toes

Especially for those of you who like your heels a little lower than the ones I tend to feature here, Kurt Geiger’s Adalia peep toes come with a manageable 1.9″ heel, but don’t compromise anything on style. I particularly like this powder blue colour, but these also come in a summery bright yellow patent, plus red, taupe and black leather.

Actually, I like the red ones so much I’m going to have to show you them, too:

Fabulous.

Just stop it with the  gorgeous green suede, and the lovely, slender heel, and the peep toe and the FABULOUS.  Don’t you know I had to pay road tax this month, and just can’t spare £195 for your beautiful, beautiful Cairo peep toes? Are you doing this just to upset me?

Polka dot, bow, t-bar, heel… overall, a rather nice way to round of the week, don’t you think?

Well, until the Louboutin fix rolls around, anyway…

These are called ‘Janison’ and they’re £120 at Kurt Geiger.
