New Shoes Review!

For my birthday my wonderful boyfriend bought me the most gorgeous pair of shoes!

Get them from: boohoo.com - but are sadly sold out now, however they still have them in the colours  Beige, Red and Blue which are worth taking a look at.

Cost: They were £40 but the other colours are now in the sale for either £35 or £30 (depending on the colour)

My views on the shoes...

Appearance: I think these shoes are perfect. They're black so I can wear them with pretty much anything. The stud detailing is gorgeous! It gives them and edgy feel and I feel powerful when I wear them which is important because you should feel good in the things that you wear.

Stud detailing

Practicality: The shoes are quite high, and it looks as though your foot will be at a really uncomfortable angle, however they do have a concealed platform which makes them a lot more comfortable and easier to walk in. I wore them out to dinner in London and walked back to the apartment in them and didn't find them painful at all, the walk was probably around 15 minutes or so. These aren't an 'everyday' pair of shoes, I wouldn't recommend them for shopping or somewhere with a lot of walking.
Rating - 4/5

The Fit: Usually  I am a size 6 however they were sold out of size 6 and only had a size 7 so my boyfriend went with a 7 instead and they're a perfect fit, they're not too big at all which I was surprised by, I'm glad I got a 7.
Rating - 5/5

Wear-ability: When buying a pair of shoes it's important to have something you can team with lots of things you already own, in order to get as much use out of them as possible and I think these are perfect for that, obviously not for a really casual outfit, but I can team them with my faux leather skater skirt, my Kourtney Skinny Jeans from the Kardashian Kollection at Dorothy Perkins, my faux leather shorts etc. there's lots of possibilities.

Overall comments: Gorgeous, every girl who is fashion forward should own a pair just like these! They're so wearable and look amazing.

Overall Rating: 19/20

Bargain Buy: Miss sporty nail polishes

Very recently I obtained a nail varnish obsession, and not for any nail varnish but for Miss Sporty nail polish! I bought one around a year ago it was a French manicure one in shade 07 however I was unsatisfied and never bought any more from their range until I was looking through voussontbeauetbelle's video's on You Tube and I noticed that she bought the 'Pop Fiction' colour and she gave it a really good review. She said it stayed on for around a week without chipping, the colour was gorgeous and she got lots of compliments about her nails. 

I decided to try out this nail polish so I went to super drug and saw that the nail polishes were only £1.99, that sounded so cheap I wasn't sure if the nail polish really was that great but I bought 'Pop Fiction'  and decided to try it out. I totally agree with Becca (voussontbeauetbelle) the colour is gorgeous, it's so bright and looks gorgeous. It lasted around 5 days which for £1.99 is amazing! It removes easily which I find can be an issue with some nail polishes, so far I haven't found a fault with this polish.

I loved 'Pop Fiction' so much i bought more colours including 'Popcorn' 'Coral gum' 'Green Lemon' and 'Grape fit'  

      

My favourite out of these four has to be 'Grape fit' the pastel shade is so on trend for Spring/Summer and it looks gorgeous along with the 'Pop Fiction' colour, I'm wearing both right now and they look gorgeous! Also 'Popcorn' and 'Coral gum' are also a brilliant combination together and look very bright and summery which I love. For £1.99 each you can't go wrong, they're bright colours, on trend, long lasting with a shiny, luxurious finish. 

I kept talking about these nail polishes so my boyfriend bought me some more colours to add to me fast growing collection, he bought me shades 'Raindrop' and 'Intimately' from the lasting colour collection and the 'Clubbing Colours Disco Tech Top Coat' 'Intimately' is a burgundy shade which I adore and I have worn countless times, the colour is bright and fun and also very edgy. I also trialled 'Raindrop' which is a dark green, almost navy tone, its a very A/W shade I feel. Finally my favourite the 'Clubbing Colours Disco Tech Top Coat' I thought this was an average topcoat, however it has a purpley hint to it, so when you put it over the top of a painted nail it alters the colour slightly I adore the colour it turns 'Raindrop'  

My advice is to get to your closest Superdrug store and pick up as many Miss Sporty nail polishes as you can carry because they're superb, for £1.99 and a huge range of colours Miss Sporty deserve some kind of reward for these nail polishes!
