Neutral taupe

Kotom2 d'orsay satin pumps by Guess

I am going to stick with Sarenza as the last regular Friday pick for this week, although check back later on for the Friday Luxe and also the Friday Night Bargain/Sale Alert!

These are low stock as I write this, and whilst they have more sizes available still in the black, the red is sold out in my size. So I admit that perhaps there was a little pouting going on behind my keyboard, but I decided they were just too pretty to not show them to the Shoeniverse!



It's not hard to see the appeal of these shoes or why they are selling out on the Sarenza website. Red d'orsay pumps with a bow front - it's like Shoeniverse Shoes 101.

I would happily make them mine if I could, but if your size is still available and if you are quick maybe they can be yours!

Dahlia lace peep toe bow courts by Dune @SarenzaUK

Now these, as with others, are giving a visible nod to the Valentino Couture heels - albeit with a platform twist.



Really cute right? The bow is gorgeous and the sexy lace upper really does make these look both delicate and sexy at the same time. I have trouble ever resisting shoes with bows - as you all know, but I will have to make sure that I will meet these in person and then perhaps add them to my collection!



If you love them too - and I know that you do - then they are available at Sarenza, but sizes are limited so be fast!

Hotty colour block heels by Dune @SarenzaUK

Oh well hello there little pretty Hotty shoes. What a very colourful way to make me want to eat my words about not loving purple shoes! The combination of the cerise pink and the orange is just gorgeous and very striking.



I love double platform pumps anyway, but with the triple colour treatment they really do come into their own. I want to just throw these together with black skinny jeans, white vest and a black leather jacket - the outfit needs to be all about the shoes!



If you love them too and want to make them all yours then visit the Saernza website, but be quick as they are selling fast! Also available in a black upper with a double blue platform.

Red patent bow courts by Blink

OK so these are definitely not the Valentino Couture heels, nor even the Paris Hilton copy, but they are gorgeous and also come at a fantastic price point.



The double bow is really sweet and whilst they are not a d'orsay pump, the style is still beautiful, and you get change from £50 too! They are also available in black, but for me the red is an absolute killer! They could easily be a Ted Baker shoe for the look of them, and cost you perhaps three times what these will too. They are well worth a look if you love designer touches but without the designer price tag. So Once again I am proud to award another pair of shoes with the High Street Heroes seal of Shoeniversal approval!

Candy Fawn cartoon peep toe platform pumps by Iron Fist

As you probably know by now unless this is your first visit to Shoeniverse, I do love a little bit of crazy. I like to let the crazy out, and often think that doing this through footwear is a fantastic way to express your personality into an otherwise mundane outfit. Iron Fist are always quirky and I am so very in love with the blue fawn on these shoes. I also can't quite believe that I just typed that line...



They really do work for me, and whilst I can fully appreciate why some people shy away from brands like Iron Fist and Irregular choice, I think their continued boundary pushing is a very good thing for the world of high street shoes. Some shops would just be boring without them!

Go big or go home, these peep toe court shoes are a definite statement if you like things bold. In an eye catching blue fawn print they mix urban and classic in a unique way.

They are new in at New Look and I do highly recommend that you should check them out. I am going to class these as well deserved High Street Heroes!

Darcia hot pink patent pumps by LK Bennett

These shoes are listed as hot pink, but they are slightly more of a ducky tone, just for those girls out there who like their pink tones to be a little more subtle!  I started off with the back view because I am seriously very much in love with the shape of these shoes, and if they look this good from the back then you know you are on to a winner. There is also a gorgeous brogue styled bow on the front...


So very sweet. See, even MORE PINK SHOES!!! But they are too pretty to ignore them all, so I am afraid the pink shoes will continue to haunt me both in real life and on my blog!


The round toe court shoe is based on the company's hugely popular Shilo design, ready for the office or a big night out. Darcia is elevated by the little details, like the intricate bow trims with brogued edges.

If that wasn't enough to stand out from the crowd, the highly wearable 9cm stiletto heels should seal the deal.


If you love them then why not go ahead and make them yours?

Denby sequin and gemstone peep toe courts by Dune

Yes they do immediately make me think of Cinderella, and they are ridiculously over the top, but sometimes on a cold Autumn day you NEED something pretty and sparkly to distract you from the daily grind. Today, this is generously provided to you courtesy of Denby by Dune.

I have not met these shoes in person so I will head into my local Dune soon and see if they have them in stock. In pictures at least they look absolutely stunning, with the sweet silver lined peep toe, silver piping, and of course the gorgeous gemstone embellishment a the front. They really are a very pretty little pair of shoes.

The metal tone heels are also really cute from the back view too.

Do you love them?

Ebony metal heel pink court by Kurt Geiger

The world is making it very VERY hard not to just abandon all of my current shoes and run myself into bankruptcy by buying all of the amazing hot pink shoes currently around.  I mean just LOOK at them...

I adore the simple line, lack of platform and pointy toe teamed with the pencil thin metal stiletto. Just amazing. Let's take a closer look at the heel, shall we?



Simply divine, and how much would it cheer you up on a cold winters day by looking down and seeing these beautiful pink pumps on your feet?



They are a little out of budget for me sadly, but they are definitely one to watch for me, and should they wind up discounted in my size or on Shoeaholics someday then they will definitely be mine!

Moya knee boots with patent toe cap by LK Bennett

Moya is a knee high form fitting boot by LK Bennett and they are really really gorgeous to look at. Fantastic sleek lines - and yes the toe cap is patent, just to make them a little different, let's try and show this a little better in the next image.



They really do ooze class and timeless, classic style and the twist of the super high shine toe is just darling. They do also come in a taupe suede (you can click through to view these on the John Lewis website) but I am not going to show them here just because they simply do not work nearly as well in the other colour. The Line is also not as crisp in the suede and I wish they had stuck with a smooth leather finish, because the colour itself is actually gorgeous.

Anyway you can choose whichever one you love the best and if you want to add them to your collection then be fast as I can imagine this style selling really well.

Jean bow peep toe platform courts by KG Kurt Geiger

Mmm hmm, this is definitely my kind of heels. And these are on sale over at John Lewis, where you can find them at half price.



I love the patent uppers and the super high heel - but the sweet and adorable little satin bow above the tiny peep toe is really stealing the show.

Regular Shoeniverse fans will know of course of my long standing love affair with Kurt Geiger shoes and they do keep on coming up with styles I love. When you can then get these styles in sales at fantastic prices they are even better.

Want to add these killer-heeled retro beauties to your shoe collection? Be quick as most sizes are still available but probably not for long!

Grey printed courts with rose gold platform from Dorothy Perkins

I haven't been to the Dorothy Perkins website in a couple of weeks so it was nice to find something new to show you when I went there this morning. These really are very much more like a Carvela heel than you would expect to find at DP and I really do love them.



I love the contrast between the printed slate grey upper and the rich hi shine rose gold platform. What a very stunning pair of High Street Heroes!

Pink petal printed platform courts with rose gold platforms and heels Textile upper. The heel height is approx 5". This is part of the 'Olivia Rubin' branded range. I am very very impressed by Dorothy Perkins for these shoes, and am seriously resisting the urge to go into town and buy them. Like, NOW.



You can of course add them to your collection and get a designer look for a High Street price and feel pretty good about yourself!

Paisely Women’s Sequin Peep Toe Shoe in Pink by Sam Edelman

Yesterday was very black on Shoeniverse so today we are going to assault you with colour and shine, starting off with the pink sequinned goodness of Paisely by Sam Edelman.



Yes they are a bit fussy, and no they are neither your everyday shoes nor subtle little classic heels. But what they are is gorgeous and shiny in a very 'LOOK AT ME' way that I kind of love. I actually surprised myself how much they make me want to wear them despite skirting dangerously close to looking like 'stripper shoes'.

They are fabulous however and I want them for the back view of the ankle strap alone. That little twist? Just divine. And because of the extreme height on the platform they should actually be fairly comfortable to walk in too!

If you would like to add some utterly impractical but definite 'Lapdancer Barbie' heels into your collection then look no further!

Bethany Peep Toe Women's High Heel in black suede by Michael Kors

One last pair of black shoes for the day then, and we are swinging back to Michael Kors and the gorgeous golden heels that are Bethany.



Love the shape, the heel, the little trim of gold piping, and the sleek line of the shoe overall. These are absolute stunners, but like so many shoes at the moment the killer look is from behind.



How I adore the high shine, liquid metal finish of the heels! Wow!

There is also a grey with silver colourway if the gold and black is a little bit too much for you!

Lady Dragon Jason Wu Womens Peep Toe Shoe in black by Melissa

Keeping with the (slightly accidental to be truthful) black theme of the day, the next shoes are another pair of designer gorgeous heels, and are also at a fantastic reduction, namely the Melissa Lady Dragon Jason Wu heels. Now I do love the Vivienne Westwood Lady Dragon heels, and probably should have featured the Jason Wu styles a long time ago, so it's nice to finally get up to speed on this, and to be able to tell you where you can buy them now for just £49.99 rather than the original £120 price tag.

Let's take a look:



Yes that is a little lace effect over baby pink running around the insole and on the base of the peep toe, and yes this is actually one of my favourite not-terribly-important features on a pair of shoes ever!

Of course they feature the Jason Wu gold bow logo too, so really Lady Dragon + Bow equals a happy Samantha, that sort of maths really isn't hard to calculate!



I still think that the Lady Dragon style is one of my favourite shoe shapes of all time, it's the heel isn't it? They are so very curved... just beautiful.

Shay Women’s Peep Toe Shoe in Black by Lucy Choi

It's turning into a bit of a 'Black Monday' here on Shoeniverse, but my next pick is extremely pretty - and also is quite budget friendly too due to them being in the sale. Ladies, I would like to show you Shay by Lucy Choi.



Cute and wearable. They are not 'killer' and do not have a platform but they are extremely classic and timeless I think. They have a Chanel type feel and elegance to them, and as I have a very real weakness for patent finishes and origami embellishments, so these are a real winner for me. How could I resist a pair of shoes with a pink origami ruffle at the front? These are from Lucy Choi's Rock and Royal collection and originally were £185, but are now only going to cost half that!



The heel is still 4 inch which for a shoe with no platform really is more than enough, and it helps to make them look and feel a little more vintage. Plus they have a lovely line from the side view... and I love the creamy buttery pink of the inner lining and the sole.

Mae Women’s High Heeled Boot in Black by Michael Kors

I wanted to feature the Michael Kors Black Mae Women’s High Heeled Boot not only as a gorgeous style, but also as it's new in at my latest affiliate partnership which is with Daniel Footwear. Their selection is great and I am new as an affiliate and also to the website, so I was delighted to be invited and also when I saw these boots!



I think we can all agree that these gorgeous boots are indeed hot as hell, and I must admit I am loving a lot of styles from Michael Kors this season, so expect to see him featured again in the not too distant future!

I love the biker edge with the buckles, but then we also have the fabulously shaped platform and the killer heel. I absolutely love them!



These are just calling for a pair of black skinny jeans and my short beige trench to take them shopping! Love them too? Why not make them yours?
