My Most Worn Shoes This Spring...So Far!

Hey beaut's!

Check me out doing another fashion related blog post, I put a footwear post up in March (here) and now I thought I'd do another one featuring two of my favourite pairs of shoes at the moment that basically haven't left my feet so far this Spring!

Of course I joined the Old Skool Vans club, well it would of been rude not too wouldn't it he he. I actually really needed a new pair of Vans, my white ones are pretty much dead and this old skool style was too nice to resist, they basically go with anything from skinny jeans, casual dresses and even casual skirts and shorts when it's warmer. My favourite way to wear these at the moment is actually to fold up my skinny jeans exposing quite a bit of ankle then whacking on a pair of little frilly ankle socks, they look super, super cute!

The other pair of shoes or should I say sandals I've been obsessed with wearing recently are these little gold beauties from Primark, they cost me a tiny £6.00 and honestly they are the most comfortable pair of sandals I've ever owned. The gold cross-over detail across the top of my foot is actually thick elastic so they move/bend with my foot and the fit of them is bang on for my little size 3 feet. I honestly cant recommend these enough, they've been perfect for the humid weather we've had in the UK this past week and they go with everything, oddly I always find that with gold sandals, they just match well with everything I wear.

What are your favourite shoes to wear at the moment beaut's? Are you rocking some Old Skool Van's? I'd love to know!

Embroidery 3 Ways With EGO Footwear

Hey beaut's!

The embroidery trend is huge right now and I for one am happy about that, theres nothing I love more than a floral, embroidered print and if your keen on being bang on trend this Spring/Summer then having some embroidery shoes in your wardrobe will be a super easy way to incorporate the trend into any outfit. Anywhoooo... Today I have three gorgeous pairs of shoes from EGO that fit perfectly in with the embroidery trend, I had no idea what to expect from EGO seeing as these are the first pairs of shoes I have from them but I'm so impressed, their so comfy, well made, reasonably priced and they really keep up with the trends too, and they even have some stunning Gucci Floral Mule dupes.

Lets kick things off with these gorgeous trainers, these are going to be such a staple for me during this Spring/Summer, their so easy to just throw on with jeans but can even be worn with shorts and little casual dresses when it warmer too. The pretty embroidery detail wraps around the side of each trainer which gives them such a cute, girlie feel despite being trainers, arhhh I love them so much. You can find more colour variations of these in the flat range from EGO here. 


Next up are the prettiest boots I think I've ever laid my eyes on. Now these beauties are totally out of my comfort zone, the boots actual shape and heel size is something I'd normally wear but I've never braved something so pattern heavy but these are stunning, their made up of a two tone floral embroidery pattern across the entire boot and heel with a faux black suede base. What I love about these boots is that their so versatile, they can easily dress up a casual outfit, add a pop of colour to a plain outfit and their also perfect for a night out. As well as being super pretty these boots are super comfy too, the 3 and half in heal is easy to walk in and my feet felt well supported too, I'm going to get so much wear out of these this Spring!

Finally are these show stopping platforms, if your looking for that one pair of night out heels for the Spring/Summer then these bad boys have to be in your wardrobe. They might look simple from the front but the heel is where the parties at, just look at that blue embroidery design, arhhh its so pretty! Admittedly these heels are higher than I'm used to and the single strap around the ankle doesn't add a huge amount of support but if your used to heels then these will be a breeze for you to walk in I'm sure.

Have you ever bought any shoes from EGO before? Which pair are your favourite? I'd love to know beaut's!

Timberland Sandals Review + GIVEAWAY!!! ♥

Hey beaut's!

I have an extremely exciting post for you all today, firstly I'm reviewing the gorgeous Earthkeeepers Sheafe Thong Sandals from Timberland* and secondly one of you beauties can win a pair of shoes of your choice from the Shoetique website, woohoo! If you haven't heard of Shoetique before they are an independent footwear retailer based in the UK, they have over 30 years worth of experience in the footwear trade and pride their selves on bringing their customers high quality shoes, that are all hand-picked from their approved suppliers. That way they make sure every pair of Shoetique shoes are comfortable, durable....and look great! The website literally has hundreds of shoes, sandals and boots to choose from ranging from woman's, men's and kids with many big brands to pick from too, there's certainly something on there for everyone that's for sure. I absolutely love Shoetique's concept, it just saves so much time scouring trough loads of different websites or shops to find the perfect pair of shoes or boots when Shoetique have it all in one place. With Summer fast approaching its definitely time to get your summer wardrobe refreshed and fully stocked up, and what better way to start than by treating yourself some sandals that are going to be comfortable, pretty and last you the entire summer so say hello to the Earthkeeepers Sheafe Thong Sandals from Timberland.
The Earthkeeepers Sheafe Thong from Timberland (£65.00) oozes quality, style and most importantly comfort, giving you a sandal that not only you look great in, you feel it too! I must admit I do own a lot of sandals but I have never slipped my feet inside something so comfortable as these little beauties by Timberland, they have this amazing cushioned insole which provides you with ultimate comfort with every step you take, it just so squishy and feels so nice on your tootsies.
The design of the sandals I love, the tan coloured part of the sandal is made with real leather and is like your average thong effect flip flop and the blue leather thicker strap goes across your foot for extra security and comfort, this also means they don't make that annoying foot slapping sound as you walk along because your foot is secure within the sandal. I love the colour scheme of these sandals, they are pretty neutral which means they go with pretty much any outfit and are perfect to pack away in your holiday suitcase from long walks to dressing up for those warm summer evenings.

My Most Worn.

Righty, I had an idea of doing a bit of  a show and tell of my most worn gem's.
These are things that i wear the most, use the most and repurchase the most. I do always seem to have things  that i prefer one month and then then next month I'm not so bothered by then but quite frankly the things I'm gonna list below i couldn't be without.

My Most Worn......

Foundation

This is 'Rimmel London Wake Me Up Foundation' in 100 Ivory, i have soooo much love for this, Ive been using foundations since i was about 17 years old and since then I had never been able to find that perfect foundation for me, they where either not the correct shade or made me break out and get oily skin. This however ticks all the boxes for me, Ive lost count of how many times Ive repurchased this as i just love it sooo much.

Mascara

I love this 'Max Factor False Lash Effect' Mascara in black, it basically does what it says on the tin, it gives you very full, long and separated lashes and is very buildable which allows you to really layer it on without clumping. As much as i love higher branded mascara's i cant always afford them but this is amazing value for money and great for abit of a cheaper alternative to the 'Benefit Bad Gal Lash' .

Nail Polish

Barry M Nail Paints are by far the best nail polishes Ive tried and this one ' Raspberry' (273) is my most worn, its great for toes and fingers and can always work no matter the season. 

Blouse

This gorgeous blouse might not be to everyone's taste (my boyfriend calls it the granny blouse) but i love it, its from Select and i got it last April in the sale, Ive certainly got my moneys worth out of it that's for sure. I find i can wear in tucked into jeans or shorts or wear it over the top of jegging's for a more floaty look and even in the winter u can layer it up with a top underneath and a chunky cardie, the list is endless.

Handbag

My boyfriend bought me this 'Pauls Boutique Holly Bag' a few birthdays ago and Ive literally not used another bag since, i love it. It looks pretty, its very spacious with lots of room but not too big where u feel u have a suitcase on your shoulder he he also the quality is great i cannot fault it at all.

Shoes


This was very hard to choose from as to be honest like most woman i have LOADS of shoes, boots and sandals but Ive gone for the ones that i reach for the most and that go with most outfits i wear. The flatforms i had lusted over for yonks but didn't want to spend a fortune on the ones i had seen in Topshop or River Island so i looked on good old eBay and found them for a bargain £10 from an eBay store (not an individual seller) so i snapped them up, they are great for nights out and if your like me and cant walk in high heels these are perfect. The little gold ballet shoes are from New Look and as you can see they are a little worse for wear now Ive literally worn them to death as they are so comfortable and light weight and if i remember rightly they where only about £5 in a sale, which to me makes them even nicer.

I hoped you enjoyed finding out a few of my most worn treasures, i will certainly do another most worn blog post in the future  if you'd like another one :)
