Alexander McQueen white rhinestone peep toes

alexander mcqueen white pee Alexander McQueen white rhinestone peep toesEvery time I see the words “white” and “rhinestones” in the same sentence, I instantly think “cowboys”. Or cowgirls, even. Fancy ones. Ones that are all dressed up for a hoedown, or whatever it is cowpersons do for fun. Luckily, though, these Alexander McQueen peep toes have escaped any associations with the old West (although pair them with a denim skirt and I might be forced to think again about that), although personally I’d still be struggling to find an appropriate occasion to wear them. They have white satin uppers covered with black rhinestones, and Matches say they’re perfect for “good girls gone bad”. Umm, OK. They’re also perfect for good OR bad girls who happen to have a spare £935 burning a hole in their bank account. That’s me ruled out, then, but if you’re still in the running, you can buy them at Matches.

Ernesto Esposito suede butterfly peep toe shoes

ernest espeto buterfly shoe Ernesto Esposito suede butterfly peep toe shoes

I’ve no idea how I managed to miss these shoes at Luisa Viaroma: they’re so totally the kind of thing I love right now, from the gorgeous colours (they call these “grey”, but they remind me of the sea) to the butterfly detailing on the front. We’ve been seeing a lot of butterfly themed shoes lately, but I think these are one of my favourites, although, given the constantly damp weather we get here I’d probably be too scared to take those suede-covered platforms for a walk anywhere out of doors!

Schuh Panther Bow Peep Zebra Stiletto

schuh panther bow peep toes Schuh Panther Bow Peep Zebra StilettoRAR!

Sorry, I have no idea what came over me there. Zebra’s don’t even make that noise, do they? Moving along…

There’s a whole lot of animal print around for the coming winter season, and, somewhat unusually, it seems to be zebra rather leopard that’s taking centre stage. (There’s still a lot of leopard about too, though. Wouldn’t want leopards to feel left out or anything). These schuh’s (do you see what I did there?) definitely aren’t for those who like to fly under the radar, because they’re practically screaming “LOOK AT ME!” It worked, too. Well, it made me look, anyway.

They’re £59.99 at Viva la Diva.

Reader-Nominated Shoes: ASOS Premium Peep Toe Leather Platforms

asos platform peep toes Reader Nominated Shoes: ASOS Premium Peep Toe Leather PlatformsShoeperwoman reader Moira asked me to feature these shoes here, and I’m happy to oblige, because although they’re not exactly the most exciting shoes you’ll ever see, they’re more-or-less the perfect plain peep toes: the kind of shoes you’ll wear with absolutely everything, until they fall apart on your feet and you have to spend weeks on end hunting down a new pair.

Shoes like this are the mainstay of my wardrobe, and, as I said work with just about everything. That would be particularly true of the nude versions, which, sadly, are now only available in a UK 8, but you’d get a lot of use of the black and coral too, and there are more sizes available in those colours.

Customised retro peep toe shoes: ‘Picnic Basket’ by Shoe Missy

shoe missy peep toes Customised retro peep toe shoes: Picnic Basket by Shoe MissyAs I’m sure my friends at The Fashion Police will confirm, I’m a big fan of anything that can be even vaguely described as “retro”. So Shoe Missy, who customises shoes in a “pin up girl” style, is right up my street, then.

These ‘Picnic Basket’ peep toes are absolutely adorable, with their over sized gingham bows and pale blue uppers. So adorable, in fact, that they’re sold out at the Shoe Missy website. Don’t despair, though, because I managed to track them down to Pin-Up Parade, who are stockists of the brand, as well as selling a range of retro-style clothes which have me drooling every time I look at them. Enjoy! (And don’t blame me if your credit card ends up taking a severe beating…)

Shoe Kryptonite: Patent open toe pumps by Pierre Hardy

pierre hardy pumps Shoe Kryptonite: Patent open toe pumps by Pierre Hardy

OK, I’m just going to be honest with you: if you choose to stick around, you’re going to be seeing a lot of peep toes on this site. Don’t say you haven’t been warned.

Peep toes are the most effective form of kryptonite ever invented as far as your shoe superhero is concerned. They quite literally make me weak at the knees. Add in a super-high stiletto heel and a super-sexy, curvy design, and I’m basically putty in their hands. Or in their feet, as the case may be.

These ones are by Pierre Hardy, and they’re also available in bright pink. Aren’t they just shoeper?

BUY: Pierre Hardy patent peep toes, 463 euros
