Flashback Friday

I am dedicating Flashback Friday to one of my most popular Shoe of the Week posts done back in 2013.

Meet 'Melpensa' by Windsor Smith.

What I love most about these shoes is the minimalism. The single, delicate strap across the toes and around the ankle, makes them perfect for the Summer season.

The 10cm stiletto heel adds glamour and elegance to the sandal. They are the perfect heel height for any occasion. They are high enough to give your calf muscles a workout but they are still a comfortable heel to walk in.

But the main reason I love these shoes, is the gold studded detailing all around the shoe. They make them a statement sandal. Perfect for when you want to make a bold statement and turn heads. The contrast of the gold studs and black suede of the shoes, makes them a classic combination and a statement heel.

High heeled sandals are incredibly versatile. And these shoes are easy to wear with everything. They look fabulous with Summer dresses and playsuits but they also look elegant and chic with skinny jeans. My favourite Summer trend this season is the midi skirt and these heels are the perfect accessory to wear with them.

Shoe of the Week

I have so many shoes in my wardrobe (126 to be exact). So many, that some, have never been warn outside of the house. These shoes, were one of them... Until I found the perfect outfit!

My Shoe of the Week is 'Melpensa' by Windsor Smith.

I bought these shoes on one of my many shopping expeditions. I was doing some late night shopping in Myer, when I spotted them.  It was the gold studded detailing that caught my attention. I found the gold detailing contrasting against the black suede an interesting combination. I was intrigued enough, to try them on. 

Once I stepped my feet into these shoes, I was head over heels for them. I love the minimalist style and the studs! I felt feminine and confident once I put them on. I've had these shoes for a while now, but have never found the 'perfect outfit' to wear them with... Until now. 

When I spotted this off white Sass and Bide jacket, it was a match made in heaven. I instantly fell in love with the jacket and then all I could think about, was styling it, with these shoes. I love the way the shoes, match the black and gold detailing on the jacket.

I love how simple these shoes are, with the single, front strap and the delicate ankle strap. It is extremely feminine and can dress up any outfit. The gold studs, draw your attention to the shoes, making them the statement piece, of the outfit.

These shoes are extremely versatile. This is a style that looks great with dresses and skirts but it is also a simple style, to dress up your jeans, during Winter. 

These shoes are extremely comfortable to wear. The 10cm heel is a great height to give my legs great definition, while still being incredibly comfortable and easy to walk in.

I am a shoe hoarder and I buy shoes, purely on an impulse. Once I get them home, I tend to realise, I have nothing to wear them with. I love when I find the perfect outfit to match with my many, pairs of shoes!
