If I had the money I would decorate my house for Halloween weeks before the 31st of October the way other people decorate their houses in the lead up to Christmas.

Halloween is my thing.

If only all these things were mine too…

New Look £7.99

ASOS £8.00

John Lewis £10.00

ASOS £7.95

ASDA £5.00

ASOS £30.00

Pumpkin cake mold John Lewis £10.00

Dorothy Perkins £3.00

Superdrug £5.30

John Lewis £8.00

ASOS £25.00

I really need those shoes in my life.

Anyway, no doubt I’ll find some more Halloween lust-haves throughout October so if that interests you then stop by the blog again soon. In fact I pretty much know that 90% of the blog from now on will be Halloween orientated so, if you like Halloween as much I do, I’ll see you soon. Feel free to comment and tell me if any of my picks will be haunting your wishlist. They will definitely be spooking my bank balance.

My boyfriend made me the lovely shoe display below:

It’s especially great because it fits in a tiny space between our fitted wardrobe and the wall.

Want to know how to make it? It’s really easy.

All you need are :

-Cup Hooks

We got ours from Homebase for £3.99 a pack (contains 25) You can buy the same pack here.

-A Dowel

Again we got ours from Homebase, it was £4.99 and over 2 metres long, you can buy the same one here.

So for less than £10.00 you can make your own shoe display rack. What are you waiting for?

Hey 🙂

If you are looking for a bargain then I would head to republic today, they have gone into administration which while very sad has resulted in a massive sale.

Also if you are looking for some make up, E.L.F are doing some great discounts codes at the moment, see below.

To top it all off Dorothy Perkins are giving you an extra 15% off their final clearance sale online.

If I only I had the money to take advantage of all these offers

Thanks for checking out my blog 🙂 Happy Shopping!

Design your own shoes!!!

Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model, custom shoes, design your own shoes, dream shoes, shoe design, Shoes, shoes of prey

Got a gorgeous dress that you just can’t find shoes for? Maybe you want a very special pair of shoes for a special occasion, like a wedding? Or maybe you just want a pair of absolutely beautiful shoes that no one else has.

Well now you can design your very own pair of shoes – just how you want them – no matter whether you want a pair of black snakeskin high heels with floral trim or a pair of open-toed glittery purple flats with a blue rose decoration. Want a bow on your shoes? No problem.

All that you need to do is visit Shoes of Prey at www.shoesofprey.com

Here are some examples:

Britain and Ireland’s Next Top Model fans might recognise the shoe in the top left hand corner as it was featured in one of their photo-shoots. In fact, that is how I found out about Shoes of Prey in the first place.

Now, here are the things that you need to know :

Shoes of prey have set prices

-Sandals (+ shipping) = £115 , Ballet Flats (+ shipping) =£130 , low heels (+ shipping) = £165, High heel (+shipping) = £195 , Ankle Boots (+ shipping) = £225

After being created and ordered shoes take around 4 weeks to be delivered.

I love the concept and the website is great, I could spend hours making shoes on it. However, I am not a big fan of the prices, as, as a skint student , I simply can’t afford a pair of Shoes of Prey shoes and even when I do have money to spend on shoes, I would find it very hard to part with anything over £50 for one pair. That being said, Shoes of Prey is such a unique service and you get to design your dream shoes so I guess that they can charge whatever they like. I have to say that for a pair of shoes that you absolutely love, which you have designed just for you and that no one else has, the prices aren’t crazy and if you are buying them for a special occasion like your 21st birthday party or something then they are probably well worth it. In fact, I guess that as long as you love the shoes that you have designed then the price is probably worth it.

What do you think? Are you heading over to the Shoes of Prey website right now to start designing your dream shoes? What do you think of the prices? Will you buy a pair? Or will you put a gift certificate on your Christmas list?

I have been noticing some new fashion accessories slowly emerging into the market which aren’t quite mainstream yet. They all seem pretty cool.

Have you discovered shoe jewellery yet?

Below are ‘Bling Backs’.

These are Shoe cuffs.

These are what I am calling ‘Shoe Bracelets’.

So those are ways to glam up your shoes, what about glamming up your tops and dresses?

Below are examples of the Peter Pan Collar (this is the most mainstream item of the post, you might have one already) You just put it on over your top and ta da! your top has a collar.

What if your top already has a collar? You can still glam it up by adding collar tips.

So do you own any of these funky accessories yet? Where did you get them? Comment and let us know 🙂 I’m particularly interested to know where to get some shoe cuffs as I couldn’t find these for sale on the internet.

If you don’t have any of these yet, would you now consider getting some? Which accessory is your favourite? I like them all 🙂

Thanks for reading my Blog, If you like it please follow and like it on Facebook 🙂
