Hello ladies! Happy Friday! 

Just wanted to plug my ebay... Selling 2 pairs of absolutely stunning shoes.... Both Kurt Geigzzz, please don't think that I'm a cheapo and selling shoes that I got on discount (because I didn't- they're both bought recently, since I quit KG)...

Then sunday I have a romantic date planned with my gorgeous housemates, we're going for a roast dinner then off to the cinema to see the Inbetweeners movie, have any of you seen it?

Ladies, forget the 'Lita's'. 

It's all about the Carvela @ Kurt Geiger 'Shout' boots. 

At £59 a pop, they are half the price, and for that can grab them in tan or black. 

I purchased both this morning. These shoes are half the heel size, making them perfect for long days out and about. I plan on wearing the black ones with skinnies, oversized logo tees & a leather jacket. The tan ones will be worn with summery floral dresses and denim jackets.  

Click the boot to buy! 

I'm finishing off my last uni assignments then I can focus on the big EL-LAY trip next week! 

I'm busy buying things for my trip including, a leopard print neck pillow for my aeroplane journey, summery dresses, and gorgeous bikini, and some cute flip flops. Post to follow! 

Any one seen any good sized bags suited for the aeroplane? It's got to be big enough to fit the usual; 5 mags, purse & travel documents, phone, ipod, etc etc... Muchos love. XOXO AVS

Working 9-5, what a way to make a living.

In my world there is no 9-5...

There's a 5-2, a 9-6, or a 11-8... That's no way to make a living! 

Today I had my first morning shift at KG, I woke up at 3am and it's now 3.45pm and surprisingly I'm still awake. I'm loving working at the shop, selling something I love whilst talking to all the excited people off on their holidays, talk about job satisfaction haha.  :) 

The ONLY downside of the job (and I mean only; I can deal with the 4 flights of stairs for each pair of shoes a customer wants to try on; I can deal with catching the bus at 4am) is that wearing heels is compulsory at KG. Now if you know me then you'll know that when I go out even if everyone else is wearing flats, I'll be that girl strolling around in the heels; I just hate wearing flats. BUT when you are on your feet for 8+ hours solid then heels are a nightmare, combine that with the 50 times up and down the stairs (no need for gym membership, bum and legs are toned for free!!!) at the end of the day, my feet HURT. Like excruciating pain! (If anyone has any tips for preventing this- chuck 'em my way please!)

Onto brighter news... 

Arabella - £100 - (Click to go to website!) 

These are my new work shoes, they make look a little 'frumpy' or not so sexy but they're practical for me. They're a 3.9inch heel, but they have a teeny platform to make them more comfortable for moi! And I love the contrast of the patent platform and strap to the suede part of the shoe. Sounds like I'm trying to sell them to you! Haha! 

Sorry that this post has been entirely about KG + work, I haven't really had much of a life at the moment as I've been working (clocked up 36 hours in the past 4 days- go me! got myself some nifty commission too!)  I have one more early tomorrow then I can actually start wearing non-uniform clothes again and maybe get some outfit photos up for you girls!

Hope the blogworld is fantastico for you, miss it lots. This is the first time I've switched my lappytop on in days! XOXO AVS

This week I've had a little fun with Wildest Wednesday Wishes, I saw these gorgeous Louboutin's whilsts browing Net-a-porter a while ago. Loub's are on my 'one-day-save-up-for-it' list, along with the Chanel Quilted handbag I always go on about... Anyway, I decided to make a nice little outfit to go with the gorgeous shoes (I get that the clutch bag is actually more expensive, but ya'know I kinda just liked the colour). What would you wear these beauties with? 

Christian Louboutin- Brandaplato 140 leather and mesh sandals- £725

 

Alice by Temperley- Renee open-back modal dress- £245 

Bottega Veneta- Know Interecciato Satin Clutch- £890

So this is my interpretation of the shoes into an outfit- do you like? I love the shoes with the detailed design, the mesh area kinda feels flirty yet covered up, which I feels perfectly compliments this Temperley dress- sophisticated whilst oozing sex appeal (I've heard that backs are the new boobs!) Finished off with this gorgeous little clutch, to fit in your lippy + $$ (probably not your iphone- so not practical!)

Any designer must-haves you want this week?!

short skirts and high heels

me (right): New look leather jacket, Topshop dress, Unknown heels.

Here are some photos of me and my beautiful housemate Beth when we went out for the night in Southampton last month. Beth only just sent me these photos so I had completely forgotten they existed! Please excuse the water splash on my dress in photo 2, when I'm drunk literally anything can happen I'm so clumsy. (How jealous of her uber long legs are we?!?!- although she has to kinda crouch in photos with my short ass!)

Beth considers a photo a good one if she's not looking at the camera so she'll probably hate that I included photo 2. (Hi Beth if you read this teehee). I'm not sure where any of Beth's outfit is from but I'll be sure to ask her. Check out her heels, they're fierce aren't they?! I'm definitely borrowing them at some point soon (love you 'homie').

What are you going to be wearing out this weekend?! I'm working friday & saturday night so no playing dress up for me unfortunately. sad face.

shoe lust

Whilst browsing the Kurt Geiger site, I came across these beautiful Carvela heels. I love the neutral colour. They'd look gorgeous paired with jeans and top for a meal with the girls, or a nice dress for a night on the town. @ £140 their versatility is a plus.

Buy them here.
