black boot hunt.

As AW14 is here, I am now officially on the hunt for the perfect pair of black boots for the season. Trying to steer away from something that I already own, I'm going to have a bunch to choose from...then I can pick my favourite.
1 / 2 / 3 / 4 

Okay, so these aren't specifically my style but I still think they're quite cool! An everyday wedge would be very different for me, and we all know I love to make a statement, so these chained boots from Zara are damn near perfect. The hi-top slip-ons need no explanation (I currently have an unhealthy obsession with slip-ons), and these Topshop boots are an awkward mix between trainers and Doc's, so obviously a win.

 
5 / 6 / 7 / 8 

These last four are definitely styles that you would catch me in. The fact that I all I wear now are slightly cropped black jeans or riding pants, these short ankle boots with gold hardware would add such a badass touch. Again, no explanation needed for Chelsea boots. There isn't anyone that doesn't look cool in some Chelsea boots. And am I the only one that just really wants some Vagabonds? They are the go-to brand for the ultimate lightweight chunky shoe. I chose this style as they're not like anything else I own.


Have you found your perfect Autumn/Winter black boots? Any more suggestions?

I'd wear colour, but I think I'm allergic, jayj x.

fashion week aw14 trends: shoes.

Carrying on with the trends...

Shoes are just as important as any item of clothing in our outfit, and for some of us, we like to make our statement through our shoes.

Fashion week saw footwear creating a trend of its own this coming Autumn/Winter. With a mixture of different textures, pops of colour to complement a darker colour palette and an aray of embellishments,  we saw classic styles with a difference. There was a twist on classic boot styles, monochromatic flats and cut-outs unimaginable.

 
Ashish / Chanel / Devastee
 Barbara Bui / Stella Jean / Yohji Yamamoto
 Christopher Kane / DSquared2 / Valentino
MSGM / Fausto Puglisi / Tracy Reese

As a tall girl I'm not mad on heels, but I am a lover of trainers, boots and a statement flat, so I will most certainly take these as inspiration when making future footwear purchases.

What do you think of shoes as a trend on it's own?

always step in style, jayj x.

20% off at office - wish list.


 In celebration of Halloween, Office have done an amazing 20% off all full price items on their website. Naturally, I decided to rummage through the entire website and find some shoes to buy that I don't necessarily need. I managed to get it down to the final 6.

Decisions, decisions...



We all have until 5pm today to take advantage of the discount, so hurry and make sure you enter 'Treat' as the discount code at the checkout.
UPDATE: Office have kindly extended the offer until Sunday 3rd November, so we have even longer to spend all of our money on shoes.

Tick tock...


more shoes is always necessary, jayj x.
