I’m loving Rapisardi boots
As the weather gets colder, and temperatures continue to drop, many of us actually look forward to the return to wearing boots. But, if we are being brutally honest, finding the right boots can be a difficult process. We want a pair that is durable and hard-wearing, but also need them to look good. We need them to be comfortable, but zip fastenings can pinch the legs, especially if we have muscular, or larger calves. Thankfully, popular shoe retailer Mozimo.co.uk may have found the answer to all our boot dilemmas. MoZiMo have recently started stocking boots by the Italian company Rapisardi. Rapisardi is a family business that has been well…

I can’t resist animal print shoes!
There was a time when I hated any sort of animal print with a passion. All it conjured up in my mind was tacky images of Bet Lynch behind the bar of the Rovers Return, resplendent in beehive and leopard print, closely followed by another corrie legend, Liz MacDonald, another classy, brassy looker. But those animal print hating days seem a long time ago now. These days I love any sort of animal print or skin. from leopard and cheetah, to zebra prints and even a little bit of snake. This has become the chicest of prints, whether you wear it in your clothing, or just keep it for shoes…

My Favourite Heels
There was a time when my wardrobe consisted of a dreary collection of flat heeled shoes. High heeled shoes, I would reason to myself, were for small, skinny women, the kind who could pull off wearing a tight top and short skirt without batting an eyelid. Sure, I’d forayed into the world of heels as a shy, awkward teenager, strapping a pair of clumpy platform sandals onto my feet in an unsuccessful attempt to get into a nightclub underage. Being tall, I’d never really felt confident enough to pull it off. I had all the flatties you could ask for. Ballet pumps scuffed beyond recognition. Suede ankle boots worn so…

Introducing DressLily.com
As a blogger, it is part of the job to trawl the internet looking for new and interesting websites offering fashion that is something a little different from the High Street. And, in the current climate, if the website also offers prices that constitute fantastic value, well, that has to be a bonus too. I’ve just discovered DressLily.com and I’m definitely in the mood for sharing. DressLily is an online clothing and accessories store that is well worth a visit, with lots of choice and prices that are frankly amazing. For one thing, the site is frankly huge, and it seems that you can buy almost anything fashion related from…

Ugg Australia Fantastic new collection unveiled in Brum
I was never a fan of Uggs, until I was given the opportunity to view the full collection when the Bullring Birmingham store opened. I was not only pleasantly surprised that Ugg Australia was about so much more than comfortable, warm, but slightly bulky boots, but also seriously impressed by how fashion forward the range was. (You can read that original post here.) Earlier this month I was invited to the fabulous Birmingham Bullring store to examine what Ugg Australia had in store for us this season. Last year there has been a style emphasis on New York, with definite retro nods to the 1970s. This season, Ugg has traveled…
