Pretty Holly

When you fall in love with a beautiful shoe, and then find out that it is not just fabulous but your namesake, well, it's a sign, isn't it, surely, that they're meant for you. Now, if only I was meant to have a £380 shoe budget.


Georgina Goodman Holly Shoes - £380

Actually, it would have to be more like a £1140 shoe budget, because I couldn't possibly decide between the three colours. My love for brighty coloured accessories has extended, though, into a current passion for all things in ice cream colours, of which I'm sure they'll be plenty around for Spring/Summer. So, while, if pushed, I would probably plump for the green Hollys, a wealth of other beautifully-hued shoes will be around for the picking. And a more affordable pair of shoes that I'm also admiring can be found at ASOS. The awful styling of their clothes normally puts me off even looking at ASOS, but they do their accessories a favour by just picturing them solo, so I don't get distracted from a cool pair of shoes by the cheap-looking styling. I'm actually quite impressed with their shoe collection, and in particular these platforms:

Grey and yellow has always evoked the 80s for me (not particularly sure why), but on these shoes the colour combo seems really fresh, and I am quite besotted with them. The shoe fest is still continuing...
