Vintage Inspired Party Shoes

Hello lovelies, I hope you're all well! I haven't posted in a week mainly because I'm in the process of setting up my own online shop to sell prints of my drawings which takes up quite a bit of time. 
Today though I have a post all about Vintage Inspired Party Shoes, yet again mainly 60's & 70's inspired. Whilst I was creating my last post on Jazzy Boots Perfect For The Festive Season I saw so many amazing heels when I was looking at the online clothes shops. So I thought I would share my finds with you lovelies! Once again I have featured shoes that are under £100 because for my budget that's a realistic amount to pay.

Honestly, River Island is the place to go to for all your party shoe needs!

1. Gold Crocodile Effect Strappy Block Heel Shoes for £45
I'm a massive fan of these shoes! I don't know what it is in particular, I think it's a combination of the colour and the style of the heel. I like that there are two straps.  

2. Embroidered Floral Platforms from Topshop for £34
These shoes aren't very glitzy but, the floral embroidery would definitely add something to your outfit! The style of the shoes are platforms so they would add a touch of vintage to whatever you are wearing.

3. Sadly I can no longer find this on the River Island website so, I have a feeling that they have all sold out.
I loved the jewel details on those shoes, they made them look expensive.

4. Gold Textured Block Heeled Sandals from River Island for £30
There is just something about these heels that makes me think of 70's disco, if that makes any sense...(probably not). I'm huge fan of the style of the heel, which is the same as the Black Embroidered Heels (no.6). 

5. Glitter heeled shoes from New Look for £24.99
Now these are definitely the most festive heels of the lot, with the metallic colour (silver) and the cheeky glittery heel. They make me think of Twiggy at Christmas because of the Mary Jane style to them, very Sitxties!

6. Black Embroidered Oriental block heel sandal from River Island for £48
These Oriental inspired embroidered heels are so nice and I think are very unique looking. They would look nice with a midi skirt and a turtle neck.

7. Velvet Block Heeled Shoes from New Look on ASOS for £24.99
I had to get a bit of velvet in somewhere didn't I? I like the addition of the single strap because I find when I wear any shoes without straps that they fall off the back of my feet, plus I think it makes the shoes look even cuter.

8. Metallic Strappy Mary Jane Shoes from River Island for £35
If you want quite a party shoe that has a bit of glitter these would be perfect for you, in the images on the website they seem to be quite subtly sparkly. They also look like they are a nice height especially for people who aren't very confident walking in heels. Also, the glitter heeled shoes from New Look (no.5) that would would be perfect for that too.

My next post will be all about my winter fashion essentials, I might even include a quick drawing

Jazzy Boots Perfect For The Festive Season

Hello lovelies, so the most festive month is upon us, ahh I'm so excited! Since last year I have been seeing lots of pretty dreamy looking boots in the shops and being worn by super stylish bloggers. If like me you're like Bambi on ice when you walk in heels, boots are a great alternative! With that in mind I decided I would share some of my favourite boots in the shops that I think would be perfect for all festivities. You may or may not notice that most of them look like they came from the 60's or the 70's but, hey they are my favourite decades for fashion! Oh yeah by the way this post will contain a lot of metallic colours! 

I have included boots under £100 to show that you can get pretty footwear with out spending a small fortune.
So, after all that chat here are my picks of festive boots

1. Sparkly Black Ankle Boots from Moda In Pelle Zola at Very - £54
If you want to add a bit of sparkle to your outfit but you don't want to go all out glittery these boots are perfect! They have a subtle bit of sparkle to them, they kind of remind me of a starry night.

2. Rose Gold Block Heel Boots at River Island - £25 
I love the colour of these boots so much! Can I please wear them forever?

3. Silver Block Heel Ankle Boots at River Island - £40 
Does anybody else think of the 70's when they see the silver heels? I think they would go well with a floaty dress or if you're feeling daring a pair of flares and a blouse.

4. Bronze Block Heel Boots from New Look - £29.99 
The bronze colour of these boots are perfect for Autumn and Winter! The Rose Gold boots from River Island would be too!

5. Silver Zip Front Boots from River Island - £25
I'm sure I've seen an image of Jean Shrimpton wearing some similar in the 60's and would look really nice with a shift dress! With it being slightly colder how about a nice shirt with a jumper over top tucked in to an A-line skirt (with tights of course)?

6. Gold Glitter Block Heel Ankle Boots from River Island - £40
Now these are all out glittery, they are 'it's all or nothing' boots!

7. Poppy Metallic Rose Gold Ankle Boots from Urban Outfitters - £85 
These rose gold are quite subtly metallic compared to the rose gold boots from River Island so, if you're not ready to go full on metallic

8. Faux Suede Star Boots from Miss Selfridges - £65 
Add a bit of glitter and sequins to your outfit with these boot with star details. I think they would look great with a pair of black skinny jeans and a leather jacket.


River Island are currently as people say 'killing it' at the moment with jazzy boots and fancy heels! So are the other shops I have found 

By the way this blog post is not sponsored by any of the shops featured in this post.
