    Shoeper Shoe Challenge # 19: June Gloom

    blue dress red shoes Shoeper Shoe Challenge # 19: June Gloom
    What
    : Christian Louboutin ‘Very Very’ wedges
    When: June, 2011
    Where: Los Angeles, California
    With: Blue dress (ASOS), red belt (my mum’s)

    As much as I’d loved San Francisco, I must admit, I was looking forward to the comparative heat of Southern California, partly so I could get back into my heels and dresses, rather than having to stay wrapped up, and in flats, all the time. Unfortunately, I had to wait a few more days: L.A. in June is prone to a weather pattern known as the June Gloom, and our first few days there were on the chilly side (although it did normally warm up by mid-afternoon, thankfully).

    This outfit was worn on the first warm day we had, and I was so happy to be able to dress like “me” again!

    If I look a little bit sad in these photos, well, that’s because I am. Winter arrived here almost overnight this week, which means that:

    a) I need to either freeze in my sandals, or lose them under the terms of the Shoe Challenge.

    b) This is probably my last chance to wear my beloved red Louboutins, for a while at least. (Although, hey, there’s always Non-Casual Friday! And central heating!)

    Also: I really need to seek out some new ruby shoes for winter. I do have four pairs of cold-weather-appropriate red shoes, but two are pairs that I hardly ever wear, and as we now have approximately 11 months of winter ahead of us, that’s a LOT of Tuesdays on which to rotate the same two pairs of shoes. (Not that it stopped me wearing these ones all summer, mind you…)

    Ruby Shoesday # 12: In which I wear polka dots, just for a change

    (Christian Louboutin red patent Very Very wedges (also worn here , here and here); Topshop jeans, New Look top (also worn here); belt stolen borrowed from my mum.)

    Because my life is super-exciting, I wore this outfit to the dentist’s today. I’m pretty sure my dentist thinks I don’t actually own clothes that aren’t jeans (because obviously dentists have nothing better to do with their time than analyse what their patients are wearing): I’m having Invisalign treatment on lower teeth at the moment, so I’m there every couple of weeks and, being the clumsy and accident-prone person I am, I always worry that a skirt will ride up in the chair and I’ll inadvertently show the poor man more than just my molars, so jeans it is. And I guess if I’m going to drool (and trust me, I am), I’d may as well drool over a pair of jeans than something that has to be dry-cleaned…

    Well, would you look at this, me posting a Ruby Shoesday photo featuring a red-shoes outfit I am actually wearing on the designated Tuesday! There will be no stopping me now. Next thing you know, I’ll up and do something else radical, like actually finishing my Shoe Challenge or something. Just you watch.

    Anyway, today I decided to open a shoe store. Can I help you find a size, ma’am?

    I jest, of course. Actually, what happened was that Shoeperman went out to a meeting, and I decided to take full advantage of his absence by investigating some new storage options for my shoe collection. I say “some” new options: I pretty much stopped after this one, because why would I keep on searching when all the space I need is right here? Well, almost all the space I need: that’s obviously not my full collection, and I don’t think those shelves would accommodate every shoe I own, but still, it’s a start, isn’t it? And I’m sure we could find space for some more shelves somewhere. What else are bathrooms for, for instance?

    red loubs shoe challenge Shoeper Shoe Challenge # 32: Things To Do In Bright Red Louboutins

    What: Christian Louboutin red ‘Very Very’ wedges
    When: June 2010
    Where: Out and about in central Florida
    With: Skirt (H&M), tank (Matalan), sunglasses (Gucci), hat (Topshop)

    For me, buying expensive shoes requires a certain amount of justification. I like to be able to tell myself, for instance, that the shoes in question will be worth the money: that I’ll wear them so often, and get so much use out of them, that the cost-per-wear will end up being tiny. I like to know they’ll be versatile, in other words, and I’m pleased to report that, in the case of my new Louboutins, that they most definitely are. Here are a few things you can do in bright red Louboutins:

    You know how I’ve been desperately searching for a replacement for my red wedges?

    Um, yeah. OK, so Christian Louboutin wasn’t quite what I had in mind, but what can I say… they were on sale, they were in my size: it was clearly meant to be.
