Currently loving - chunky mid-heel sandals

I just bought the most beautiful heeled sandals! They are a pretty much exact copy of some by River Island that I nearly bought for almost triple the price!! Pretty delighted right now!

Black heels £21.99 ebay, tan heels now £35 River Island

I literally can't wait for them to arrive! Although they have quite a high heel I think they would be suitable for stomping around in the day, as long as you weren't constantly on your feet. I'm a pretty small 5"4 so I'm always on the look out for comfortable low heels I can wear in the day to give me a few more inches!

But I also think these would be great for going out for drinks in the evening too. I do love a good all rounder shoe! 

My obsession with mid-heel chunky sandals started when I bought a pair of Forum Gladiators from Office. These have barely left my feet and just go with so much! I like to wear them with denim shorts, jeans, leggings, everything. They just add a bit of height and a edge to the outfit without the 'omg you've got heels on you've made a huge effort' look. (See me wearing them here with a vintage dress)

 I start my internship next month at Mint Vintage in Dalston, London, so Im on the look out for some more comfy heels with an acceptable heel for daytime. Hopefully I'm going to be helping styling models so I need every extra inch I can get! I hate being short :(

Here's some more chunky mid heels I'm loving at the moment!

I love the ankle straps on all of these. Apparently because of my height I should steer clear of ankle straps as they can make your legs look short, but they just add such a cool look to the shoe. They help to keep it on your foot too; I have a tendency to just walk out of shoes. 

Do you like the mid heel trend?

New shoes

I have been very naughty recently- four new pairs of heels in two weeks can't really be justified especially when I don't have many occasions to wear them! But in my defense these weren't expensive. 

Far left pairs - Primark £12 

Blue ones - Office £58

Far right - ebay £13.41 

These Primark ones are absolutely stunning! I've seen so many shoes in this style about at the moment in River Island, ASOS, Topshop. Office etc, but these ones were only £12! An absolute steal. So naturally I got two colours. The red pair look really pale in the photos but they are a bright bright lipstick red/coral. These are actually really comfortable and easy to walk in because of the straps.

The blue ones were my last staff discount purchase from Office *sob* I got 45% off these so they were pretty cheap. They are made from the most gorgeous electric blue suede and lined with leather so super comfy and sort of mold to your feet. I think they are such a statement shoe and I never thought I would, but I love the pointy toe. 

The last pair are a bit of a wild card but I fell in love with the 'bis un bout' Louboutins worn by Kim K, Rihanna etc and these were a very cheap knock off from China. These are a lot lower than the 5 inch Louboutins and I don't like the patent toe caps as much as the suede of the Louboutins, but for just over a tenner I can't really complain. If you buy these maybe go a size up because I'm a 3-4 and I got a 4 and they are tiny!!

I think it's crazy how much my style has changed over the last few years. I used to be only interested in heels that were about 6 inches high with a huge platform. The times I have fallen flat on my face/ended up going barefoot and getting stuck to night club floors/getting glass embedded in my feet, it just isn't worth it! 

Anyway I hope you like the shoes I got! Have you seen those in Primark? Definitely grab them if you do! Hopefully I will do a post soon of how I style some of these babies.

Thanks for reading :) I really appreciate every page view and follower.  I keep changing bits of my blog everyday from font to pictures to colours, so please bare with me haha. Its definitely a work in progress!
