Jeffery~West have done it again.
I only went to their website to see whether there was anything left in the sale that was a) in my size and b) purple. (Sadly not, on both counts.) And then I thought I’d just have a little look to see whether there was anything new… which is when I [...]

A friend on Facebook alerted me to the fact that Converse currently have a Dr Seuss collection!
I’m terribly disappointed that the “One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish” designs are only available on kids’ shoes. I’d love a pair of these!
Sorry the weather’s so bad. I’ve never known a colder, wetter and windier May!
It’s all my fault though. Last week I bought sun cream, and a new pair of sandals.
Sorry about that.
So, the weather’s just starting to get to the point where it might be warm enough to take off my Doc Martens, and start looking for some pretty shoes for the summer. A colleague came into work today wearing a pair of these. I was very well behaved, and didn’t wrestle her to the ground [...]
Yesterday I went into London, to visit the Foale & Tuffin exhibition at the Fashion & Textile Museum with a friend. Afterwards I had a few hours to spare until I was due to meet another friend for tea, so I’d planned to spend the afternoon looking at the Relics of Old London exhibition at [...]
Jeffery-West
Posted in inspiration, shoes, shopping on Jan 25th, 2010
My friend Patrick is a Very Bad Influence. We were talking about shoes, and he pointed me in the direction of Jeffery-West. Now we’re both coveting beautiful shoes that we can’t afford - and they aren’t even made in my size! (And I still haven’t saved up enough money to go on a shoemaking course.)
These [...]
Mmmmm, boots.

It’s a good job I’m not a goth any more. Nor a costumer, nor simply a collector of amazing shoes.
Otherwise I’d have to buy these:
Probably in the black velvet.
(Available here, for £60. They’re by Pleaser.)
Seeing these has put me straight into the mood for wearing the most enormous skirt, and a tailored jacket or frock [...]
Desert Boots.
Posted in inspiration, shoes, shopping on Sep 3rd, 2009
The boots in the picture are all from the Clarks Originals collection. I don’t think I ever owned a pair of desert boots. Wallabees were popular when I was a teenager, and I didn’t like those at all, so I think I went straight from school shoes to Dr Martens. I think my Dad might [...]
Well, okay, I’m not going back to school, but I am applying for jobs. Assuming I’m actually invited for any interviews, I thought I’d better go for something a little bit smarter than the shiny Dr Martens I was looking at the other week!
These are Hush Puppies, and I bought them online from Cloggs. I [...]
Exactly what I need!

I’m sorry that the posts have been few and far between lately - I’m having far too much fun at the museum, and haven’t found time to blog about it all while I’m at home.
I’m partly helping out on the reception desk of the museum, and partly giving a hand to the visiting artists who [...]
