Are you a shoe offender? Do you have that pair of ‘faithful’ shoes that you wear day in, day out… probably a black pair… they’ve probably been re-heeled a few times, and they’ve probably seen better days. But they’ve done you proud and it’s oh so hard to give them up.

Lurking in the back of your wardrobe though,  like a piece of buried treasure, you have an amazing pair, worn just once to a wedding, preserved in their box. It’s time to ditch the boring, faithful shoes for a few days and dig out your shoe candy

Before you think there is no way I could wear them to work……think ‘what would Carrie do’, put on the shoe angels and rock it!

At Ruby Slippers Styling, we’ve found some amazingly special shoes (for EVERY budget), so if you don’t own that supercalifragilisticexpialidocious pair, show Monday-itus who’s boss and buy yourself a pair. Trust us, it’ll make you feel better (we’re personal stylists, we know about this stuff)!!!!

CAUTION..Shoe Porn about to start….

White, silver and animal print…what a fab combination! These look great with skinny jeans for a girls lunch:

ASOS, $63

We’re in LOVE with these strappy, caged up sandals. Leave your boring black shoes at home and take your skirts and dresses to the next level:

The metallic finish just gives this shoes a little something special and it’s the shoe that keeps on giving – gorgeous with navy blue for work, with skinny jeans for drinks, or your LBD for dinner.

LK Bennett, $416

The texture and colour combinations on these heels, make them look funky, classy and much more expensive than they are:
