I have improved though, a few years ago I lived my life totally in black.....and before you ask I wasn't a goth (not there is anything wrong with goths) I guess I was a bit scared of colour. Not being your average size, shape or height I always panicked that colour and patterns just didn't suit me so black seemed like the easiest option. I have started bringing in colour to my life over the past couple of years, I'm getting there and who knows in another year or two I may well be able to push myself to experiment a bit with my outfits.
So in the absence of items of interest my way of adding a kooky or unusual edge to my outfits would be through one of my biggest loves in life - shoes! Just the thought of lovely new eyecatching shoes brings a huge smile to my face and when I see a pair I love well sometimes it's hard to resist them.
As I have so many lovely shoes I'm not going to add them all on one post as that would be a) silly and b) so long you'd fall asleep! So for todays blog I'm going to add two of my favourite pairs of shoes.
Whilst shopping in Asda of all places I saw these beauties on the shelf, they called my name in a tantalizing way "Shazza we want to come home with you" they said - who was I to refuse? After trying them on I asked my husband what he thought and he said he liked them with a rather cheeky glint in his eye! I checked the price £12 - well it was hard to leave them there (as you can imagine). They are made of a lovely soft material it isn't suede but has the feel of it and they are so comfortable to wear. I usually wear these with black trousers and a black top - though I'd love some ideas on other combinations I could wear these (although bear in mind I do not own a pair of jeans!).
I think probably these would probably be included in my top three pairs of shoes..........
I may even go so far to say that these are my favourite shoes out of all my pairs. I can't remember where I saw these first but they are from New Look. I never saw them instore but think I came across them whilst browsing shoes on Ebay (one of my favourite passtimes!). All I remember was when I first saw them they wern't in my size and I searched for months for them before finally finding a pair in my size (a six in case you're wondering) for sale on Ebay. I ended up paying aboutr £7 plus postage for them and I ♥ them so much. These are definitely ones I wear with a totally black outfit whether it be trousers and a top or a dress as they just totally stand out - I think I'll be gutted when I eventually have to throw them away but luckily there is still plenty of wear in them yet ☺
I am sure that this won't be the only post I'll make about shoes. I have so many pretty pairs that I'd love to share with you all but until then goodnight everyone my bed is calling!
(Friday tomorrow hooray!)

Both are fab, perfect for injecting some individuality into any outfit.
Bet a bad day soon improves when you glimpse those pretties under your trousers.

they are both fab, but I really adore the leopard ones!
I love the star ones, they are so lovely. But how on earth do you walk in them without being crippled? I can manage mid heels, anything above 3 inches and I'm really struggling, 4 inches and I've got no chance :(
I relate to seeing something on ebay and then searching and searching until you find your size. I'm doing that at the mo with a pair of new look denim courts that I missed out on in store grrr
I love shoes (and I'm a 6 too)
Considering they are so high they are actually really comfy and easy to walk in, though I do have to pick my occasions carefully! Not ones for dancing all night in though I have to admit x
