Paper Sissors blouse | Central Park West pleated skirt | Rachel Comey Granby heels
I love pleated skirts since they’re easy to wear on almost any occasion. They’re also a bit of fun when the wind picks up (as long as they’re not too short!), which was exactly the case when these photos were taken. This particular style of skirt goes well with the school-girl esque Rachel Comey heels (the ones I bought from Solestruck during their Black Friday sale).
Last week I ordered a couple of pairs of shoes from Solestruck. They have the most incredible range of shoes, but not only that they’re also an amazing company in all regards. Arguably, it’s my second favorite source of shoes beside shoesnatcher. They have almost every design that I wanted. I’ve bought from them before, but my experience during this years’ Black Friday sale blew me away. The sale kicked off on the Friday with 30% all sale shoes, dropping to 40%-off on Saturday. The discount dropped to a further 50% off on Sunday, but this time it took the site with it… The site was a bit of a mess – throwing up errors and preventing me from adding the shoes I wanted to my cart. You can check here for more info for selecting the best shoes.
However, thanks to the amazing CSR team at Solestuck whom I got the attention of on Facebook, I was able to place my order via Skype (!) and low and behold just 8 days later my 2 new pairs of shoes arrived on my doorstep!
I’m quite serious when I say these guys are nothing short of amazing – but, onto the good stuff!
I’ve been plagued with shoe lust as of late. I’m signed up to Sole Struck’s e-newsletter (if you’re a shoe fiend you need to be on this list) and they’ve been getting in new brands and new stock like crazy.
I love the big chunky look to shoes at the moment, I’ve moved on from liking strappy t-bar heels. More shoe is definitely better.
Here’s a peek at what I’m into right now:
Jeffrey Campbell Milton, Jeffrey Campbell Pixie, Jeffrey Campbell Xanadu Fur
Sam Edelman Zoyla, Matiko Halle, Gee Wa Wa Fatales
Senso Acacia, Senso Tina, Senso Madeia
All available via Solestruck.com (recommended!)
Jeffrey Campbell seems to be able to turn the shoes of our dreams into a reality. He must be listening pretty closely to what we’re looking for in a shoe right now. It will be interesting to see if he is still as popular once the big-chunky-wedge trend is over. Senso (bottom line) is another one to watch, they’ve got some great designs.
What is your favourite style of shoe right now?
I ordered these Jeffery Campbell wedges from Solestruck awhile back and they finally arrived in the mail last week. To my luck, it was love at first sight and they were a perfect fit. I’ve been too sketchy about the shoe fitting to buy my shoes online in the past – but these were worth it. They fit true to size, and they’re so comfortable and stable considering their height.
Very easy to walk in, they’re likely to go into high footwear rotation.
Solestruck are a reliable online shoe retailer, carrying an impressive selection of Jeffery Campbell shoes. They’ll provide you with tracking and a reliable estimated date of arrival. Just remember to build the cost of shipping + any customs fees just so that you don’t get caught out unexpectedly.
