Spring And Summer Heels

[Louise28]

Well the sun is out (just about) so it's about time to rescue your summery heels from that long forgotten corner of the shoe cupboard and dust them down before you slip them on and head out into the sunshine. What are you going to be wearing this summer? Of course, its also the perfect chance to invest in a new pair or 3, anyone made any new summer purchases recently? Louise

[Amanda]

I haven't really looked at this years spring and summer fashions yet. I think I'm going to wait until there's no snow left on the hills first. if there's an emergency then I have plenty of back up available. I did notice that some are saying that the mid block heel will be in this year. What Megan calls the "Auntie shoe" That combined with the current weather is not wetting my appetite. How about you Louise?

[Louise28]

going to rescue some of my summery peeptoes very soon, i've got a pair of plum coloured ones and some in taupe that i wore a lot last year. I nearly got a pair on this morning but heard the threat of rain and decided not to risk it.

Certainly not in metallic though.

Plum LK Bennet Peeptoes by any chance??

yeah i think they are, i've got several pairs and some are LK and some are Pied a Terre and i can't remember offhand which brand the plum ones are lol

mmm i like the choos! but I'd need to be very confident my feet had been pampered and looked there best lol

[Amanda]

but I'd need to be very confident my feet had been pampered and looked there best lol

That's another matter altogether, my feet havent seen the light of day for about 6 months...

[Louise28]

lol, time to ditch the wooly tights and strap on the skyscraper heels hehe

love the Maya courts on that page too, mmmm gorgeous

[Amanda]

lol, they do look very "Louise" even in that colour ?

[Louise28]

style i love! colour i'd prob have to see in the flesh before i spent hundreds of pounds hah,

i think they've put the wrong name on the website there tho, arent those shoes these ones?

[Amanda]

How odd, there seem to be quite a few "maya" on the web in different colours including the ones you pointed out.

[Louise28]

i like Maya as a style too,the "Lance" sandals are the ones that i think are there in that orange metalic, I'd go for patent "viola" i think. i think they look delicious x

[Amanda]

Lance are very nice I agree and plenty of colours to shoose from. Viola are a bit thick looking for me, I'd feel like a horsey in them

[Louise28]

i meant viola colour ,is there a viola style too? I've got some "Anouk's" and I havent found anything i'd swap them for on their site today oh it appears there is a "viola" style too, didnt see those first time round, no i wouldnt especially go for those either

[Amanda]

Yes there seems to be a Viola style sandal with a clump sole. Oh I like the Anouk, very "pigalleish"

[eoneleg]

I live in a warm climateand enjoy a sandal or open shoe year round, and always have a pump or boot available for a business trip up north. BTW...I love the orange sandal especially the way the vamp is cut and looks as it it will beautifully frame my toes. E

[Louise28]

Oh I like the Anouk, very "pigalleish"

Yes thats true, do you have both, which do you prefer Amanda?

[Louise28]

A friend told me about Rupert Sanderson yesterday (not a name i'd heard before) but i've had a look at their range and some of their styles look lovely IMO

"Shelly" peeptoes look summer ready, but my purse will need to stretch lol x

I only have Pigalle. Or Pigalles, I don't know what the plural is. Bet Meg does.. :-)

[thehighheelsgirl]

I have Pigalles there some of my fave heels!

[Amanda]

What colours do you have Jen?

I have Pigalles there some of my fave heels!

[Louise28]

Do you like the Pigalles Amanda?

[Amanda]

All of the ones I have, yes.

[Louise28]

have you bought any new heels recently Amanda, i've got some Kurt Geiger Anja open sided courts which i haven't given a first wear to yet

http://www.kurtgeiger.com/anja-black-satin-35-kurt-geiger-london-shoe.html

mine are Nude

[Amanda]

Hey those are nice. I rather like the way that D'orsay styles reveal more of your foot. Actually I haven't bought any since the Capsules you recommended. I've been so busy lately and besides it's still winter. I'm hearing that it will snow again soon. That just doesn't inspire me to replenish any of my wardrobe.

yes i agree, love the way a d'orsay shows off more of the foot.

more snow, really! OMG, in May, is that normal where you are? maybe you'll need to wait a bit longer to break out the peeptoes and strappy sandals :-)

[Amanda]

Lol, with regard to weather, nothing is normal here any longer. I was wearing summer dresses in March last year. Only peep ankles are bearable here at the moment. I wonder if there's any such thing as "zip off boots" you know, like the zip off trousers that seem to be so popular these days?

[Louise28]

I saw some people out yesterday in their summer dresses and sandals with bare legs, they must be quite hardy or otherwise immune to the cold!

[Amanda]

Imune to the cold, I see that often here. Bare legs and midriffs are in fashion year round with the younger women here. Vey evident at the weekends I tend to go more for a lot of layers.

[Louise28]

bare midriffs, oh yuk, I'm glad i've not got bare legs today never mind a bare midriff or a summer dress and strappy shoes and nothing else! keep wanting to break out the peeptoe heels tho, maybe next week.
