Shoe obsession and my wish-list

Before I start, I want to say I hope you all had a lovely Easter weekend. Our kitchen is literally filled to the brim with easter eggs and, with my dad on a diet and my mum never eating sugar, I have to eat them all! I'm writing that as if it's a bad thing, oh hell no, I'm a happy bunny :)

Anyway so I was flicking through the April edition of Teen Vogue and came across a Louis Vuitton advertisement with the model wearing the most gorgeous wedges ever. Firstly, I was sad that they were by an expensive brand and secondly, I prayed that they were available in the UK - Teen Vogue is an American magazine so, as expected, all adverts published are American.

So, I went to the LV website - UK version! - and here they are...





They are called the Tuileries Sandal in Silk.

Description of them on the website:
"This stylish update of summer's classic espadrilles comes in pretty heart-print silk coordinating with Louis Vuitton ready-to-wear, and on a comfortable braided raffia wedge."

On the website it says they come in a dark blue with white and black as well. OMG.



I'm not sure which one's I prefer! However, at £570 they are definitely one to splurge on and I am sure that there are many cheaper alternatives in the high street, yet the Louis Vuitton name plastered on the sole makes it extra special. If I'm completely honest, I thought they would be more. Still, I won't be spending that much on a pair of sandals yet. After all, they can only be worn in spring and summer.

I'm also completely head-over-heels (excuse the pun) in love with Christian Louboutin shoes. I can't decide what design I like the most but If I had to choose one, I'd definitely go with the classic black style. The red sole is to die for!

I'm just about to watch Sherlock (the TV series) - I love this show so much! Even though I've seen them all, it's nice to re-watch ones you don't remember!
