Red or Dead Ettore Boots ( Schuh )

When I saw these I thought that the heel was metal, wasn't until I got closer to them I saw the heel was black and white stripes. These have an amazing 14cm heel and a 5cm platform. They remind me of the Austin Powers films and even though I like the base colour I really do not like them overall. I especially loathe the black toe section. I find them a bit tacky looking and the with the price they are it's something I wouldn't consider buying. Again they do not come in an 8.

Lucky these ones do come in an 8 so I got to try them on, surprisingly easy to walk in and quite comfortable. Could be quite useful with all the snow we currently have. Unlike the other colouring I actually do like these. The colours are quite autumnal and much more sedated than the other more vibrant style. If it weren't for the price I'd actually buy these.


So ratings
For the first ones 1/10 I really don't like them
Black ones 9/10

Lois point court (Schuh )

It's Saint Andrews day today, so what better way to show it than with a pair of blue heels to go with the Saltire. Anyone who knows me knows I have a weakness for blue shoes so really I needed to excuse to talk about these. These heels have been around for a while in other colours, such as red, black, stone, a pastel green and light grey.


Unfortunately for me I couldn't get the blue in a size 8 so I had to try on the red ones. The heel height is 12cm and have NO platform, have to be honest I couldn't walk in them, they were just too high for me. They're very sexy looking although maybe a touch porno, especially the stone, they look like a good choice to match with a nurses outfit from Ann Summers.

Love the colour but not very practical. Would look great for a night out but I think dancing would be out of the question.

I'll rate them a 4, nice to look at in your shoe closest but that's about all I could use them for.

Prince court glitter ( Schuh )

With party season fast approaching you'll need something that says fun fun fun. These shoes are COVERED in glitter, they'll catch the light from any angle. With the level of snow at the moment these would not be practical but who wouldn't wear them around the house to brighten up the day? The platform is 3.5cm and the heel is 13.5cm.

One major drawback for me though, they don't come in a size 8.

So...

 Cinderella can go to the ball...

...unless her feet are bigger than a UK 7.

For style and for the season I'll rate them a 7.
