Ok let me start by saying shoes are my 'thing'...my one love item..the same as people love designer bags etc...for me shoes win it..they always fit you no matter what your weight and i truly believe the wrong shoes can make or break an outfit....for years i have lusted after GINA shoes...the glitz, the daintiness..i just wanted them..although my sensible mind has always said £300 plus is just silly for a pair of shoes that i doubt id dare wear in case i ruined them or lost a swarkovski lol!!
So why oh why am i now buying designer shoes...I'll tell you why...sales! They have convinced me im getting a deal and now im stuck with two gorgeous but ridiculously priced shosies...why do we do it lol..so here goes I'm sharing my guilt!
This first pair i got in the states..they're miu miu...i was enticed by the big red half price sign..i never knew i was heading straight into the designer section or nordstrom..yikes...the damage was done after trying them on..an looking at the price second..i just had to have them..also my best friend sat there nodding saying "you have to they're a bargain"...what would you do lol?? Anyway they seriously are the most comfy shoes I've ever worn..despite being scarily high!
Were: $775
Sale: $300 ish i think lol..bargain??? what do you think?
Ok onto the next article...Dior..ive wanted these for soooooooooo long..however being so pricey i was living in a dream world..until...yep you guessed it SALE..now these i do think are a bargain..i never in all my years imagined id own a pair of Dior shoes...as sad as it seems i think i would save these babies in a fire...i love them so much and to me they are a bargain...although they didn't have a size seven so I'm going have to do some serious stretching to fit into these tiny 6's...any tips?
Were: £445
Sale:£149
I really feel this is it now..no more designer shoes...it may seem over the top but the funny thing is i dress top to toe in primark,peacocks etc so i think these little gems will dress up any £4 dress lol!
Please comfort me..do you guys have a splurge on one particular item??
Amazing,adore the miu miu ones!!! x
ReplyDeleteI splurge on accessories like sunglasses (usually Dior), scarves (Missoni or Alexander McQueen) and handbags (Juicy). When it comes to shoes and clothes I stick to the usual Topshop/New Look/Primark/Warehouse.

omg i LOVE the mui mui ones
ReplyDeletei think you were right on getting them!!
xxx
They are both soooo nice!! i think its funny so many of us pick one designer item like shoes or bag and put them with high street outfits!! Sometimes these things just have to be done!! x
ReplyDeleteI love the Dior ones, what a bargainxx
ReplyDeleteI am very lucky that I am a size 9 (yeah flipper feet i know!!) because most shops only go to a size 8!! Otherwise I Would be spending a fortune!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shoes though xx
Absolutely Gorgeous.. i bought 2 pairs of dior shoes in an outlet sale in NY.. so I know how you feel.. I can't ever let a bargain pass me by! :) teehee

LOL!! I think you deserve a splurge if you mainly wear Primark etc. And when they look this gorgeous you can hardly say no!!

some sexy shoes you got there girl!! 150 for gucci's? Not bad!!
ReplyDeleteBoth shoes are awesome dear!!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, LOVE your Dior shoes!!
ReplyDeleteWow those are absolutely beautiful choices!
ReplyDeleteGood job!
You could place a bag of water in each shoe and then freeze them so the shoe could expand a size or half size. Search for Michelle Phan on youtube and look for her video about that. Hope that helps!
