Gaga eat your heart out

I think my heart skipped a little when I read about the blogger competition Sarenza was running. The chance to become an ambassador for the brand and receive £150 worth of shoes a month? Count me in! This is my competition entry to win the opportunity of any shoe enthusiast’s lifetime.

To me shoes are all about making a statement. What's the point of blending in? You could have the most basic outfit and add a pair of jazzy shoes and voila. You instantly have an outfit that impresses more than a bloke in a Lamborghini. Yes I have those boring black court shoes that go with everything but I also have dozens of shoes that are so out there I can’t seem to find a single thing in the world to pair them with. Still that doesn’t stop me from pulling them out every now and again to stroke away to my heart’s content.

Now THESE are what you call a statement. They might make me wonder how the hell I would be able to balance once I have had a few glasses of rose but just look at them! Gaga would be drooling into her little cup and saucer! Never have black shoes looked so snazzy! These beauties will help you turn heads for all the right reasons.

In my ideal world I would pair the shoes with this beautiful white midi dress (hopefully making it mine come Wednesday), heaps of gold jewellery and a sleeveless leather jacket. In fact this outfit would be perfect for my birthday outing come Saturday. A girl can dream right?

A snapshot #7

001: Obviously the highlight of this week was my birthday. We are still eating the leftover food!

002: I have been hardcore shredding this week. Well four times which is better than none. I absolutely hate it but I am determined to shift some pounds so needs must. After I do it 2-3 days on a trot my legs are in such agony I struggle to walk down the stairs. Yep I really am that unfit!

003: It was my boyfriend's sister's birthday on Friday and we all popped out for a meal to celebrate. It's hard to believe she turned 20 as when I first started going round their house she was only 15. Time flies eh?

004. Popped to Brixton to see Ed Sheeran yesterday. He was really good live but in between songs he started to annoy me. I don't like being told when to sing along, I perfer to do it when I want! Brixton is a really nice venue, didn't realise how big it was.

005 - 006. Saturday was such a lovely day. We must have walked miles. After getting off at Monument we walked along the river to Somerset House to see a war journalism exhibition held by Sky News. It was good, very interesting. It was awful to see the London Riots played out again. Then we walked along the Strand past St Pauls, to Covent Garden where we stopped for a few much needed ciders in The Punch and Judy before settling for dinner in Leciester Square.

How has your week been?

Birthday gifts

Here are my birthday presents if you fancy a nose!

After lusting over the OPI gold shatter on various blogs my shoe queen friend surprised me with it! Shes such a darling! I'm going to try it out on my birthday outing! I can't wait to try it all the Soap and Glory make up too. The tote bag just about sums me up!

I also recieved a lovely pink scarf and a sparkly necklace from the lovely Sophie. Thanks so much, it was very kind of you!

I think I'm set up with Soap and Glory goodies for life, my friends and family know me so well! It's my favourite!

The boyfriend brought me the owl kigu along with the beautiful Tesor Paris bracelet and the Harry Potter boxset. He always does so well and has me down to a T!`

My best friend obviously knows me well as she brought me a bottle of Sourz and she's also treating me to see a show in the West End. Not sure what one yet but we are thinking Ghost? Has anyone seen it? Any good?

My wonderful nan treated me to the Daisy gift set. I literally have like 2 squirts left in my current bottle so this came just at the right time!

I was also lucky enough to recieve some money so cannot wait to blow that! It's currently burning a hole in my pocket and I'm meeting up with my friends after work on Wednesday to blow it all at Oxford Circus Topshop.
