Love Those Shoes

I just thought I would share my latest purchase, oh just look what I got last week .....red canvas espadrilles from Matalan for only £8. They also have them in blue and beige but I love the red and I can't believe they are only £8 at that price you can afford to buy all three colours.

I just had a look at the website and they are nowhere to be found so I'm glad I got them instore that week if they have sold out but I have to wait for the rain to go before I can wear them.

Check the site out for the latest heels and wedges

Friday Wish List - Week 3


I'm mad on shoes this week especially heels as they make you feel glam and that's just what I need at the moment even though I wouldn't be able to wear them for long. Wedges are a little easier to walk in so here are a few on my wish list this week.
Weave Detail Upper Mini Wedge
I'm lusting after these tan wedges at the moment they are pretty high but very light (I did try them on) so it is a shall I, shan't I dilemma. Only £16 from Matalan plus they sent me a 10% discount card so I'm swaying to Shall I?
I'm imagining myself wearing these in the summer with jeggings or a maxi dress. Oh doesn't summer officially begin on Sunday.......umm!
Sherbet Polka Dot


Oh.....look at these from the New Look range called Babysham at a whooping £49.99. Definitely a wish item as I couldn't justify a spend of £50 on a pair of shoes I wouldn't be wearing often. They would look great though I'd team them up with leggings or a dress to show them off.



Bow Stripe Wedges
They have my favourite Polka Dots so who wouldn't want a pair.

They also have some ballerina pumps in this range see all at New Look.


Monroe



Loving these heels they are called "Monroe" at a reasonable £34.99 you can get these from Deelicious also on found on Facebook. A very tempting pair of heels, as they are quirky and it's nice to see something different  plus with Deelicious they stock fab handbags as well just to tempt you even more. 

Loren


In my first First Friday Wish List I was lusting over "Loren" Wedges (I still want them),I want both.





That's it for this Friday's wish list - please do share your wish list.


Come back next week for more.

Jogging Bottoms Are For Inside or Exercise

While I have been on maternity leave trying to get out and about i've seen so many mums in jogging bottoms, unflattering baggy tops, hair tied back and not having time to put make up on all blaming it on having kids. (I'd love to give some of these makeovers).
I've always tried to make the best of myself and I would never go out without my make up on because it makes me feel better about myself but a comment another mum made in a mum and baby group I went to a few months back said " I don't bother with make up as i'm not on the pull anymore" it made me so angry, is that what other women think about make up or maybe me....REALLY. I backed my corner and told her i've always loved putting on make up so i'm not about to change because I have a baby, i'm not me without make up.

I don't understand the attitude's of some women you don't have to completly forget about yourself because you have children.  Yes it is harder and yes you don't have as much time for you as you used to and yes financially it can hit you but why oh why do they make themselves look worse - I can't stand it.


Dita Von Teese
It is a huge life change having a child and you do have less time for yourself so maybe some days if I am staying in I don't bother as much but I still always feel better with a little make up. Which isn't a 3 hour job that people think you need, It takes me seconds,  while my little man crawls around or playing with his toys.  


I'm Loving the 50's look at the moment with red lips, styled hair and figure enhancing fashion wouldn't it be nice to go back in time and see women dressed like this every day. 

Women (and men) should make the best of themselves.
