I have an obsession to admit! I love red shoes. I have made my way through a number over the years and they have all been very dear to my heart. My first pair were a pair of towering red leather wedges that were purchased at great expense whilst I was an intern in New York City, I wore them until they could be worn no more and was very sad to see them leave me for shoe heaven.
My next pair were bought in a favourite shop of mine in NYC -
Loehmanns, a store similar to TK Maxx whilst on holiday there in 2003. This pair were from Miu Miu and and I still dream about them as if they were some urban shoe myth, once again they were worn until they were no longer presentable, probably because I pounded the streets of London come rain or shine in them. My current pair are not quite so upmarket, they are from Next and are a pair of perfect Mary-Janes and alas I think this will be their last summer. I'm constantly on the look out for a new pair, but haven't seen anything that comes close to replacing them at the moment.
So today whilst catching up on my reader I came across this
post on
Easy Fashion's blog and I fell in love, not just with the most perfect red shoes, but also the purple socks. They are just meant to be together and I love the girl's look. I'm now keen to head out to the shops asap and find myself something in a purple and red combo!
