My picks of the best party shoes from Clarks

Hi guys,
Yesterday I went out and picked out my new party dress for the season from Matalan (outfit post to follow): much later than usual for me to be choosing my festive frock, but it was hard to try one on when I was sporting the mahusive bump! Dress chosen, now I need to find the perfect shoes. And I've been looking at the women's party shoes from Clarks.

It's been a couple of months since I properly wore heels, so I want to break myself back in gently and guarantee that the party heels I choose are going to be comfortable to walk and maybe even dance (if the mood takes me!) in. And that's a guarantee that comes with pretty-much every pair of shoes from Clarks, in my experience. In fact, my Clarks heeled brogues were the only pair of heels I wore at the end of my pregnancy whenever a fancy occasion called for them. So I headed straight over to the Clarks website to check out their more glitzy seasonal options. Here are my picks:
Photobucket
Nude court shoes with jewel details, £49.99
Snake skin court shoes, £54.99
Animal print shoes, £69.99
Vintage inspired sandals, £84.99
Gold leather court shoes, £89.99
Black leather and snake skin sandals, £69.99

They're all gorgeous shoes, but of course I have a favourite. I really love the black vintage-style sandals with their unusual shaped heel and bling detailing across the toes: they'd go with just about everything, they're versatile but eye catching at the same time. Definitely top of my list of options!

Have you picked out your party frock yet? And are you buying new shoes to go with it? I'd love to hear all about your Christmas outfit: let's share inspiration!

My party shoe picks from Sarenza.co.uk

Hi guys,
Well, party season is officially upon us. Everyone has been mentioning the 'C' word for what feels like months (I know, I know, I probably started it!) and the atmosphere is starting to feel pretty festive. Which means only one thing: we have the perfect excuse to go shopping for pretty glitzy party dresses and their companions: matching impractical shoes. Hurrah!

Whenever I want to do some virtual shoe shopping I head straight to Sarenza: where else will you find so many premium brands all in one place? Which means that if you know you need amazing shoes but aren't sure what style/brand/colour you want, it's the perfect place to browse. Here are my picks of the perfect Christmas party shoes currently available on the site:

Heels
Photobucket
Betsey Johnson striped shoe, £93.50
Bordello pink glitter heels, £97.90
Betsey Johnson red heels, £93.50
Jeffrey Campbell foxy glitter shoes, £119
Dune snakeskin heels, £89
French Connection nude heels, £115

I'm really excited by the edition of Betsey Johnson to the Sarenza family: hence my including two pairs from her collection on the site! She was the first designer I really loved when I started exploring fashion, and I still have a soft spot in my heart for her now. The pair I am going to have from my selection as my Christmas party shoes though are the Dune snakeskin heels: you'd get so much wear out of these, and they're versatile enough to go with almost anything!

Flats
Photobucket
Ted Baker glitter flats, £75.70
Missoni sequin stripe pumps, £518.50
Steve Madden silver studded slippers, £84.99
Studio TMLS gold brogues, £101

I normally avoid flat shoes like the plague when it comes to party season time- a frock and heels is my December uniform. But actually there are a lot of really gorgeous flats out there this season and the importance of comfort really can't be overrated! I've got my eyes on these Ted Baker glitter slipper shoes: they also come in black.

What do you think of my picks? And have you started thinking about your Christmas wardrobe yet? I'd love to know what kind of shoes you're going for this season!
