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.

For the first ones 1/10 I really don't like them

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.

Schuh mouse velvet court ( Schuh )

Anyone who knows me will know I have a soft spot for blue shoes, don't ask me why I just find them awesome. However as much as I love blue I'm not so keen on velvet or suede shoes, it's nothing against the shoes or material I just find it that little bit more difficult to clean, stay clean or looking good and we all know when it comes to women and shoes we like our shoes to look good.

They have an 11cm heel with a 2.5 cm platform, they also come in a deep red colour where the heel is also coloured to match. The red ones though look a bit too much in colour to my grans hall carpet though, not sure that's constructive criticism.

It's a hard one to mark since I do really love the colour but price and material mean personally it's not so great.

5/10

Frenchie Butterfly Courts (Schuh)

I noticed these a few weeks ago but hadn't seen them in store until recently. With a 2cm concealed platform and a 12cm heel they have a height of around 4inches. I'm not one for bows and other assortments on my shoes normally, preferring more of a classical clean look but I really did like these. They come in Black or Red but one majorly disappointing fact is that they do not do them in my size. :( Sadly this made me slightly upset and feeling bad about my big feet :( Shoe shopping is meant to make you feel good.

Anyway it's hard to score something you can't try on.

Purely on looks I score the 7/10

Red or Dead Popava peeps ( Schuh )

Went into Schuh on the way home and came across these, immediately I thought they looked VERY heavy. Upon picking them up I was pleasantly surprised, they're a lot lighter than what I had thought. With a 2 inch platform and a 6inch heel they're very high. I love the angles and shapes on the shoe, makes it look unique. However it made me walk rather cumbersomely, I doubt they're be attractive for a night out.

Score 5/10
