sarenza shoe of the week: pearly queen

I first saw these Kat Maconie shoes on Sarenza’s pintrest page in the week and I quite literally fell head over heels in love with them. At £230 it does seem like my taste has become somewhat extravagent over the last few weeks (last week’s hi-top love for example) but how can you not adore these shoes?
They come in both grey leather and nude leather and I love that the neutral shades make these a really versatile shoe and therefore goes someway to justify a cheeky purchase (in my dreams, if I had the money I would though!)
Happy Easter folks,
I hope it’s a wonderfully chocolate filled day for all

sarenza sunday: designer dreams

There is no way on earth I could ever justify spending nearly £400 on a pair of high-tops but in dream world I’d be purchasing either one of these pairs of babies by Giuseppe Zanotti ones from Sarenza. I don’t even know what has drawn me to them in the first place, clearly the bright colours and shiny finish have bought out my inner magpie. That and my current tendency towards a more casual shoe (thanks painful foot for forcing me in to that one) means I was browsing high-tops before heels for once!
What are your current “in my dreams” shoes?

Dress c/o Fashion Culprit
Tights: Matalan 
Neon Vans c/o Sarenza
These neon vans aren’t as orange as my poor photography makes them seem, you can see the colour more accurately here. I guess these shoes show how much my style has changed, a year or so ago I wouldn’t have opted for something so casual, or so bright, thinking that styling them would be limited to jeans and jeans only but actually they are really quite versatile (not to mention comfortable) and go with more of my wardrobe than I first thought. 
It’s quite clear now I’m well and truly loving the neon trend, I’m not brave enough to translate it to much of my clothing- I fear it’d wash me out even more, but shoes…well, bring it on. I’m game for all things bright and beautiful. This is my first ever pair of Vans and I’m a convert. Every bit as comfortable as my beloved yet scruffy Converse I wish I could wear them 24/7.
Time to embrace the Friday madness at work. I’m not sure where this week has gone, at all. I’m really looking forward to the end of the working day and the start of the weekend, I have some pretty awesome plans and a lot of sleep to catch up on!
What have you got planned?

Sarenza Sunday: A Step too Far?

Believe it or not, the hi-tops above are by Converse; the brand I probably least expected to jump on the wedge trainer trend.
I’m not sure how I feel about this, I’m not against the trend in general, I do indeed own a pair of wedge trainers, but Converse? A brand I associate as a classic, who’s idea of following trends is to release some cool patterns and new season colours…I’m not sure I’m ok with this. 
They aren’t offensive to look at, far from it, I just think my traditionalist instinct kicks in a bit here and says no. I guess they will be a marmite shoe, one that tears shoe lovers apart- what are your thoughts on this new venture from Converse? Maybe I’ll come around to the idea, maybe I’ll eventually end up owning a pair, but I doubt it. For me, my Converse-d feet need to stay flat on the ground and my next purchase will probably be something girly and pastel as a nod to Summer.
Should you wish to purchase them (and I won’t hold it against you) they are available here at Sarenza ((and this post is in no way criticising Sarenza, I was just scouring the new arrivals and saw these!))
I’d be really interested in hearing how you feel.

Sarenza Sunday- I love (affordable) shoes!

Phodeal, £47

Phopealing, £44

Phodge, £31

Phofolle, £39


I’ve mentioned before the brand “I Love Shoes” at Sarenza, highlighted for their on trend designs at affordable prices,
in keeping with what I already knew about the brand their S/S collection has not dissapointed with these pastel and metallic beauties all priced under £50.
My personal favourite is the Phopealing shoe- there’s something about delicate pastels combined with bold black and studs that makes for an easy on the eye, edgy summer sandal. At these prices you can afford to follow a shoe trend, wear them to death for one season and not feel so bad for not investing in a classic.

Which is your favourite? Do you feel a Spring feet treat coming on?
