today i bought... zara nude sandals



I posted about the black version of these beautiful sandals a while ago (here), proclaiming them to be quite possibly the perfect shoe. The only drawback was that I already owned a very similar pair. So when I saw that Zara had introduced a nude colour way of said perfect shoe, it took me all of 30 seconds to add them to my basket and click them home. My only deliberation was between two sizes; I find that sandals like this often require you to take a smaller size than usual because if they're slightly too big the ankle strap has to work twice as hard, meaning they're much more difficult to walk in. Anyway, suffice it to say that I love them wholeheartedly. Now I just have to beg Zara to please stop producing such beautiful shoes, because there's only so much my bank balance can take...

today i want... may wish list


A little bit late on the wish list this month, but that's not to say there aren't a whole host of lovely clothes and accessories that my debit card is just itching to shell out for. This month's crop includes some beautiful blue crepe trousers from (where else?) Whistles, Reiss' answer to the perfect black day bag, an electric blue bikini that's making me wish for warmer climes and some kind of crazy but utterly beautiful rose gold safety pin earrings which I've fallen for 100%. Given that I'm trying to be good this month, I'm sort of hoping none of these things make it into my wardrobe, but on the other hand... I totally hope they do.

today i want... zara holographic sandals



This morning I was just casually browsing Zara's "new in" section (both a wonderful and a torturous activity, since I inevitably want everything I see) when I came across these beauties and genuinely said out loud "Oh my god!" I mean, have you ever seen such an amazing pair of shoes in all your life? I don't know about you, but I'm still ridiculously obsessed with all things holographic (it's like metallic but better, right?) When I was putting together my holographic accessories post, I struggled to find any shoes which weren't a) heart-stoppingly expensive or b) horribly tacky. But of course Zara have done it again and managed to create something which is brilliantly cheap but absolutely does not look it. I mean, dream shoes for less than £30? Now I just need to contain my excitement long enough to click them home...
