I love the black and white upper, though, which gives these a very dapper feel, while the symmetric bow adds a touch of sophistication. And hey, look, they’ve even put some polka dots on the inside: it’s almost like they knew I’d come along and want to buy these! If you want to buy them, meanwhile, they’re $64.99 at River Island. Updated to add: I just noticed that they also carry this shoe in bright red:

Most wanted from our sponsorsMiu Miu two-tone patent leather pumps
These have a real ‘Park Avenue Princess’ feel to them, and wouldn’t be at all out of place in one of those black and white movies in which everyone’s dressed to the nines. For that reason alone, I love them: if you do too, head over to Net-a-Porter, where they’re £335.

Limited Collection almond toe platform shoes from Marks & SpencerMarks & Spencer is one of those stores I tend to neglect when I’m searching for footwear, but their latest TV ads, featuring Danni Minogue, plus a range of nautical-themed clothing, prompted me to take a look, and I’m very glad I did! These shoes actually don’t fit in with the beachy vibe of the adverts, but I love the two-tone uppers, while the cork platform, topped with black patent, reminds me of Christian Louboutin’s Bruges pumps. The red heel is the perfect finishing touch on these, and the price is a nice touch, too: they’re just £29.50. Miu Miu Spectator Peep-Toe Mary JanesMiu Miu released a number of spectator0-style pumps a few seasons ago, and this year they’ve revisited the style with these peep toe Mary Janes, which come complete with bow. I wasn’t a huge fan of the ruffled spectators of a couple of years ago, but I adore these, and while I personally think it should be illegal to mention the word “Autumn” this early in the year, I’m going to do it anyway, because the colours of these would make them wonderful Autumn attire, ideally worn with something tweed and tailored. These are currently available for pre-order at Saks, where they’re $650.

Dune ‘Melanie’ black and white bow peep toesThese shoes are also available in both silver and gold, but it’s this black and white version that appeals to me most: partly because I’m a sucker for this particular combination, but also because I can imagine wearing these in the daytime, while the other two colours are just a little bit too disco-tastic to get away with in my daily life! I think these would look fantastic with a pencil skirt and tailored top, but they’d be equally fabulous dressed down with a pair of black skinny jeans. It just so happens that I have all of those items currently residing in my closet, so onto the Shoeper Wish List these go! If you want to add them to yours too (or just buy them and to hell with the “wishing”!), they’re £70, and you can get them here.

Rupert Sanderson double buckle gladiator sandals
These don’t look particularly “gladiator-like” to me, but I’m not going to quibble over the name when there are beautiful shoes to be looked at, and anyway, if ALL gladiator sandals were as gorgeous as these ones, I’d be a very happy Shoeperwoman. Of course, the combination of black and gold on a shoe has always been one of my favourites, but these are particularly nicely done, and are dressy without being fussy. The strong lines of these, plus that shiny gold, would make these perfect with a simple dress: they’re £693 at Louisa Via Roma.

Metallic heel peep toes by Jaeger LondonJaeger isn’t a brand I generally associate with fabulous shoes. In fact, I’ll be honest: it’s a brand I more often associate with smart suits and sensible midi-skirts. It would appear I’ve misjudged Jaeger, though, because just look at these black and gold heels! Aren’t they amazing? That gold heel is just so striking against the black suede, and I also love the chunky shape. Such a simple idea, but so beautifully executed that I can’t help but want a pair. Now. These are £170, and if you want a pair too, you can buy them at My-Wardrobe. Tabitha Simmons ‘Bunty’ leather wedge pumpsNet-a-Porter describe these shoes as having an “old-world glamour”, and I think they got it spot-on there. I’m picturing them worn with a tailored tweed, 40s-style suit, and a jaunty little hat, possibly one a woman who’s standing at a railway station, clutching her handkerchief and trying to look brave. No, I have absolutely no idea where that came from. They’re by Tabitha Simmons, and come in two diffeent colourways: the classic black and white, and the slightly more unexpected tan and green. Very cute, but also very pricey, they’re £695 at Net-a-Porter. |
