Shoes, Glorious Shoes!

I am a girl who loves her shoes, I mean lets be honest who doesn't? but I especially have a taste for Irregular Choice shoes. If you have never came across these shoes before then hit the website now! These shoes are glorious! They are completely different from anything else. The only thing that puts people off buying them is what would you wear with them because they can be so patterned and extravagant. So part of this blog post is to show you what you could wear with the shoes and show you that they are an investment because they are timeless.

 

These are my purple cat boots here I have worn a patterned dungaree skirt and black vest top with them. I wanted to keep a simple colour scheme because the shoes are so patterned you want them to be the centre of attention. Skirt-Primark, Top- Primark, Shoes- Irregular Choice


 

Here I have got a patterned woolly jumper with high waisted shorts. Again I wanted the shoes to be the centre of attention so didn't put on anything that took away attention from that. Jumper- Primark, Shorts- Topshop, Shoes- Irregular Choice


 

These are one of my favourite pairs of Irregular Choice shoes because I love gladiator sandals and they are so colourful and different from what you would usually see. I have worn them with a cream coloured dress. Dress-Primark, Shoes-Irregular Choice



These shoes I think are just fabulous because of the extravagant flower rosette at the back. I love the flower at the back and as soon as I seen them I had to have them! I paired them with a simple white dress to keep a nice black and white contrast. Dress- Topshop, Shoes- Irregular Choice 



The Irregular Choice shoe line up, they are all an investment to me!  






If you have never heard or seen Irregular Choice shoes before then you should visit the website as they are amazing! http://www.irregularchoice.com/

Modern Day Rocker

Two posts in one day now you are lucky, this never happens with me. Anyways was playing about with Polyvore (I'm a newbie) and came up with this.

I created the look by mainly focusing around the Jeffrey Campbell shoes as they are extremely big on the high street at the moment. I was looking at rock, punk fashion as I created this look but I was aware when putting it together that I wanted it to look glamorous and edgy. I have to say my favourite items here are the spiky cuff, the shoes and the high waisted leather shorts.

Wild Thing


As I live in Scotland the occasion is rare when we get a sunny day (especially this Summer) so as the sun was sorta shining I decided to go to the Wildlife Park with my Boyfriend. We got to see Bears, Lemurs, Wolves,  Peacocks and loads more.


Lemur, We called him King Julian like from Madagascar
Giant but very cute Rabbits
Mr. Sleepy Bear

When I came home it occurred to me all the animal based items I had in my wardrobe so I have picked out a few to show you.


So here is my turtle necklace and I thought I would include a picture of a Tortoise that I seen today at the Wildlife Park.



My Peacock earrings with Mrs. Peacock underneath with her little baby Peacocks.


This is my bird pendant a friend bought it for me years ago and I love it, I love how he is holding a wee gem in his mouth.

Its not all about the jewellery, here I have my Wolfbeater Iron Fist heels. I love the heel being a different colour and texture from the rest of the shoe. And below is a picture of a White Wolf at the Wildlife Centre.

It's always nice to get new things

I have to say when it comes to buying clothes as of recent I don't do it often due to the fact that I'm a skint art student that spends all her money on art materials and bills. So when it was my birthday this month and I got some spending money and Topshop vouchers I was so excited to go spend on some clothes.


I started by buying this ring from Maggies Farm in Dundee (FYI, if you are in the Angus area and have not been to this shop yet it is a must) I loved it as soon as I seen it on their Facebook page. It's a seven dwarfs two finger ring at £12.



My next purchases were the Buddha bracelet from Topshop along with the dip dye jumper. I loved the jumper as soon as I saw it because of the leather shoulder patches with spikes. The jumper suits being worn baggy and I'm wearing it here with my red creepers and high waisted shorts.


This was a gift given to me by a friend and I love it! I love long necklaces and have worn it with so many things since I got it. Plus the wee elephant is soo cute!


Dear Creepers, I'M IN LOVE. That is all.


 This dress was also a present, its a Hell Bunny dress and I love it because of the print as its flying "My Little Pony's" with cupcakes and Panda's. Now what is not to love with that?

Fashion Show Time!

I know, I know! I have been terrible at this blog thing lately I think because its Summer I'm completely out of routine so I have a lot of catching up to do on here which believe me I do intend to do. A month or so ago I put a post up about how I designed a poster for the Fashion show well the Fashion show has now been and gone. A lot of hard work went into it but it turned out amazing and I have brilliant pictures of my designs by the brilliant Oliver F Urqurkursen.
