All I want for Christmas is shoes!

Apologies for the cheesy title - after making a huge dent in my Christmas shopping yesterday I am now thoroughly in festive mode! With just over a week to go until that magical day, I'm sure you all gave Santa your Christmas lists a long time ago, but if not then take a cheeky peek at my favourite festive footwear!

A CHRISTMAS PUMP

TOPSHOP
black gem slippers
£32

I actually bought these gorgeous sparkly slippers a few weeks ago, and they've become my party season staple. They're fun but comfortable, and are perfect for wearing to evenings where you'll want to dance the night away! One thing I would say is to try-before-you-buy as I have never had to buy a smaller shoe size, but with these I had to go one size down (from UK 7 to UK 6). I would definitely recommend these shimmering shoes to any girl who loves to look smart, but still wants the comfort.

A CHRISTMAS HEEL

CHARLOTTE OLYMPIA
kitty embroidered heel
£495

I adore these heels! I loved the slipper version, and these are just as cute. I love kittens, all things gold, and luscious velvet - and these shoes have them all in one! I haven't tried them on yet, so I can't comment on how comfortable they are, but they are so gorgeous that I wouldn't care!

A CHRISTMAS BOOT

RUSSELL & BROMLEY
black orchid-dry boots
£285

Everyone needs a good winter boot, and these are simply divine. Russell & Bromley make some truly gorgeous boots, so it's difficult to choose their most fabulous pair, but these ones are incredibly well-made and luxuriously beautiful that they definitely top my list. 

So there you have it, my shoes for all Christmas occasions!

Keep dancing!

Why I love my Chelsea boots...

I love my Topshop Chelsea boots.

I know that Chelsea boots are nothing new to the fashion world, but I think they deserve a mention every now and again. Of course they come in all colours, shapes and sizes, but I'm going to share with you why I love mine in particular!

They are nothing remarkable, but they are are a trustworthy staple, and I could not do without them!

Firstly, they make my feet look smaller, and being a UK size 7, this is never a bad thing. The slight heel gives me that extra bit of height - which at 5'9" isn't completely necessary, but as Tesco like to remind us, "Every Little Helps". Even the smallest of heels makes us girls feel that touch more glamourous; which makes them the perfect shoe for a busy London lifestyle, where I often have to go from day to night without first going home. Furthermore as the heel is not too high, they are also suitable for walking rather long distances, which is also useful when living in a city.

This is a rather simple post, for a rather simple shoe, but sometimes simplicity is the key to an outfit.

Thank you Topshop for such a reliable, yet stylish boot!

What are your must have boots?
