Timeless sequin bow shoes from Oli

sequin bow shoes Timeless sequin bow shoes from OliRemember Kurt Geiger’s ‘Dolly’ shoes? The ones with the sequins? And the BOW? They were gorgeous, but they were also £100, and, all too soon, they were sold out.

These shoes from Oli, however, are only £25, and while, OK, they do look less expensive/fabulous than the KG versions, they’re in exactly the same style, and won’t be as hard on the credit card. With pay-day still feeling very far away right now, that has to be a good thing…

Eek! ‘Timeless’ leopard stud platforms from Oli

You know, there are LOTS of words I could use to describe these shoes, but I’m not “timeless” is one of them. Black pumps are timeless. Red ballet flats are timeless. These, on the other hand, look like they’ve been brutally attacked by every trend going. “Studs! Studs are fashionable! Throw some on! And leopard print! Can we have some leopard print? Also, a gigantic platform and a bow! There, done!”

The sad thing is that, without the animal print on the heel, which looks seriously out of place to me, these shoes would’ve been perfectly acceptable. I might even have liked them. As they are, though, it’s all just a bit too much – and anything but “timeless”!
