DAY TWENTY SEVEN
DAY TWENTY SEVEN: Black grosgrain and silver stud ballet pumps, Topshop (2009)
I bought these last winter and due to their non-leather body, I decided that they were too fragile to wear sloshing through puddles. Now that the weather has finall improved (albeit marginally) I can finally wear them and tonight was due to be their first outing to a gig but at the last minute exhaustion from this week’s exploits meant that I decided to stay at home. Therefore, these little stunners will have to wait a little longer to make their grand sartorial debut beyond my front door.
Worn with: Black skinny jeans, Topshop; Black and white stripe jumper with epaulette detail, Zara.

DAY TWENTY THREE
DAY TWENTY THREE: Pewter leather slides, Primark (2008)
Today’s been a busy day full of recee-ing and shooting, so comfort was a big issue - especially in heat. I bought these Birkenstock-esque slides from Primark two years ago and again, they were another multiple purchase as I found myself buying a second pair about a week later as they well and truly won me over. They started off very bright and shiny but then quickly broke down to more of a crackled pewter shade which I really like - and at only four pounds a pair, they were truly at the bargainous end of my shoe collection!
Worn with: Denim shorts, Zara; Red micro-stripe tee, New Look. Not pictured: Blue studded leather bag, Marks & Spencer; Blue wayfarer sunglasses, Ray-Ban (these are actually glued to my face)

DAY SIX
DAY SIX: Silver leather sandals, Topshop (2009)
I have a feeling that weekends, particularly Saturdays, may throw up something of a conundrum in the flat shoe stakes. Today, I’m heading to a barbeque during the day and then a party in the evening, so I need a pair of shoes that will carry me through both events without ripping open my feet. These sandals from Topshop should do the trick - they’ll keep my feet cool as I loll in the park and then later this evening, I’ll pair them with black trousers and a smarter top for the party or maybe even a dress, depending on how warm it stays.
Worn with (day): Dark denim shorts with studded waistband, Zara; Striped vest, Topshop; Grey bandaeu top, American Apparel. Not pictured: Grey and navy striped jumper, Boden; Red leopard print scarf, Marks & Spencer; Brown leather saddle bag, Prada
I’ll update later with ‘Worn with’ for the evening. Enjoy the sunshine, everyone!
UPDATE: Worn with (night): black leather leggings, H&M; White racer-back vest, H&M; Grey blazer, Topshop; Red leopard scarf, Marks & Spencer; Black safety pin clutch, Bodhi
