Versace turquoise demi-wedge sandals

versace turquoise sandals Versace turquoise demi wedge sandalsVersace have produced some stunning shoes over the past few seasons, and now that some of those styles are starting to filter through onto designer discount site, Yoox.com, it’s a very dangerous time indeed for the Shoeper bank balance.

These gorgeous turquoise sandals are sold out in everything but my size, UK 4, and if I was a little richer, I’d probably take that as A SIGN to snap them up. I’m not rich, though, and these are £315, so they’ll have to remain on the site, for someone else to snap up. Maybe one of my readers? If so, you can buy them here - they’re also available in cream, and in a UK size 7.

Elizabeth and James suede ‘Mason’ pumps

I’ve seen these shoes on so many different retail websites now I figured it was probably a sign that I should write about them. Now that I have, I’m not quite sure what took me so long: the colours alone are enough to draw me to these! I particularly like the turquoise, but the pink and yellow shades also provide a nice antidote to the gloomy weather, and make me think of all of the pretty summer dresses they could be worn with.

If you can’t wait until the warmer weather comes along, though, these will also work with jeans, trousers or bring a splash of colour to winter pieces, too. They’re £354 at Zappos.

Joan & David suede ruffle pumps

Now here’s a couple of colours we don’t often get to see on shoes! Kinda refreshing, isn’t it?

I know yellow is a perennially unpopular clothing/footwear choice for a lot of people, and it’s true that it can be hard to wear (especially in the case of clothes). I’ve always quite liked it, though, perhaps because it always instantly draws the eye, and because if you choose the right shade, it can be stunning, as well as unusual.

Needless to say, then, I really like the yellow version of these, although the turquoise is also very pretty. These are both fairly summery colours, but the shoes are also available in black, if you want to wear them now, without worrying about the mud and slush of winter. They’re $204 from Zappos.

Office ‘Lucky Button’ turquoise suede t-bar shoes

office lucky button Office Lucky Button turquoise suede t bar shoes

I’m not sure how “lucky” the buttons on these shoes will turn out to be (Maybe you’ll just feel lucky if you get to own them?) but they’re certainly cute – as a, er,  button -  and that’s good enough for me.

Regardless of the cute factor provided by the buttons and bows here, it’s actually the gorgeous turquoise colour that attracts me to these. It really makes them stand out, but would still be very wearable, so you’d probably be able to get away with wearing them to work, or wherever else you wanted, too.

They’re £60, and are also available in black.

Christian Dior turquoise patent leather ‘Starlet’ sandals

christian dior sandals Christian Dior turquoise patent leather Starlet sandalsCork soles, while nice, aren’t generally something I go crazy for, but I think I could totally get on board with these ‘Starlet’ sandals by Christian Dior. Oh hell yes.

Now, would someone like to just send me the $512 to buy them with?
