I just discovered Polyvore, I love it! It's great to put together outfits that inspire you and things you want to buy.. when you can't. Fashion is my guilty pleasure simply because I shop way to much and I already have too many clothes, shoes and bags. But this is just dreaming for me.. until I have a great paying job. Then I can get what ever I want!

OOTD Oasap
An outfit for the day. Thought I'd go with an American top since the Superbowl is on. Even though it's not a football top. I love the clean contrast a white top gives, so simple and fresh. Teamed with a tanned belt and shoes. Simple, simple denim look. What do you think? You can get this top by clicking here.
I got this T from an online USA store, OASAP which has some amazing items. Most of their clothes are one size so I was a bit worried. But hey, it fits! I'm pleased, the texture is quality and thick. I love it. I've also got a gorgeous elk head necklace to show you soon. What do you think of my new hair, bright eh?!
Until Next Time xo

Converse Vs The Rain
I don't know about other countries, or where you reading from. But in the UK the roads are turning into rivers and it's starting to look a bit like Venice, without the suitable transport. Weather warnings are telling us to avoid leaving the house unless necessary for some areas and most trains have been cancelled. So my problem always is that I get soaked. I've been trying my different shoes to see which fairs the best. Pretty sad, but a good tip I thought? If you need a pair of shoes to wear while you go out and buy a pair of wellington boots, I suggest converse. My black leather boots were very waterproof but after a few hours they became really painful and my foot has been hurting for 3 days since. Somethings not right there. But any plimsolls you wear will just end in tears. So I tried my Converse and they were brilliant. Obviously I don't want to get them broken or dirty but that inch of white rubber at the bottom seems to protect you from everything. Amazing.

Heel Condoms, wait what?
I'm not sure how I got to this part of the internet but I was a little scared I'd see something like this.
But instead I found something amazing. I have so many pairs of shoes in my room, but every time I go shopping theres always a new pair I want. This is such an amazing solution, hopefully the exchange rate applies other wise I'll just buy a new pair of heels! Heel condoms are almost a personalising accessory so you can change the style of any of your favourite heels.
So for me this means never having to wear in a new pair of heels ever again. Well thats in theory anyway. The average price is $40 for the newest additions and $25 for the rest. I'm also wondering how well they'd stay especially for those girls who party all night long? I guess this is an excuse for me to review them now? Theres always a excuse to shop. Which is your favourite? If you can't wait the postage time, check their website for your local stockist, they're pretty well represented.
Until Next Time xo

Spikes on Boots
Thought I'd share my new boots with you. They were £10 in Primark which I think is beyond reasonable, the quality isn't amazing. But its pretty good for the price. I've been wanting some studded things for a while as you probably could tell from all my posts. Kind of spammed studs and spikes! But I love it so much, the suede material makes it slightly less in your face I think.
Would love the buy these jeans and t, but too much spending! Do you like this? After wearing them on a stormy day, its safe to say these are dry day shoes. Soggy feet are the worst, damn.
Until next time xo

Fuggs
I'm not sure about the rest of the world but for the UK, autumn means UGGS. As much as I used to be a fan and couldn't wait to splash all my savings on a pair (£120!!) the cheaper version are just a no go. Please don't do it. It looks horrible and screams fake. They've even now been labelled 'Fuggs' (fake uggs) Theres so many types of shoes and shoes you can get for cheap that look great. If you really really need a pair than just save up that cash over summer.
I'm not a n UGGS fan anymore, but it must be said that they are the comfiest shoe I've ever worn.
I hope I haven't offended anyone, but I just don't think a broken shoe is a good look.

Vanity over health? Hoof Heels.
![]() |
Lady Gaga falling. |
It doesn't matter how drunk you may have claimed to be, if your finding yourself in this position... your heels are TOO HIGH. Theres no shame in taking a few nights off with some glam studded gladiator sandals and a casual dress just for drinks. I don't understand why so many girls would prefer to walk around clippy cloppy like horses, not even bending there knees because they don't know how to walk. Your trying to look sexy by wearing heels, but walking like an animal. Your dress looks gorgeous, hair make-up and accessories to match, just get some lower shoes until you practise!
Even if you are very experienced with the old, heel - toe - heel - toe, its still very bad to wear heels too often. Having your ankles almost vertical is equivalent to having 3 times your body weight resting on your ankles and knees. Working so hard to stay at your suggested height to weight ratio is all irrelevant if your constantly in heels. Wearing heels can cause many foot problems, most famously bunions.
Heels will also cause an 'S' shaped curve between your chest and lower back where flat shoes would provide a straighter posture.
Have you heard in previous concerns for feet, of Paris Hilton losing her pinky toes to vanity? Logical, my feet don't fit this new fashion trend, so pinky its time you depart. WHAT?

Lethal hoof heels. |
Although they are designed to look like horses hoofs, which suggests they would be more comfortable and easier on the joints. But the missing support in the ankle and smaller surface area is unstable. Be wary when you buy these shoes, or where them modestly for short periods of time. So I ask you, Vanity over Health?
Tip of the day - For dewy, fresh looking cheeks. Apply a small smear of Vaseline on cheek bones.
Thanks for reading! Hope you've had a great week.
