FNBA - Gabbi PPP by Carvela at Shoeaholics

Aah yes, a pretty little Pretty Pink Pump (PPP!) to end the week, and these are limited sizes (sorry) but are down to just £19!



Pretty hot pink satin uppers with a sweet peep toe. They are amazing value at this price.

TFL - 110mm Guipure lace boots by balmain

In a week choc full of sale alerts, I felt it was important before the final bargain of the week that we had a properly designer The Friday Luxe this week. I imagine you will have to agree that these peep toe lace booties from the creatives at Balmain are both madness and genius combined in the most delightful way. They have an equally crazy price tag too (£1077).



I do love them though, and whilst I have a Fashion BA I am not sure that I would ever have thought of lace over patent - but it's beautiful and perfect to look at. Also the flash of black patent and the zip back is an interestingly edgy feature on what it otherwise a very feminine boot.

Also they feature the ever impractical peep toe on a boot. Of course.




Plus they look amazing on.

ON SALE! Toy satin multi colour colour block sandals from Diane Von Furstenberg

Sadly the saving on these is not the half price that I wished for, but I had to show them to you because they are just completely darling! The Toy sandals from Diane Von Furstenberg and a sandal that would look great in the office or on holiday and the mix of colours and finishes make them extremely versatile. I am totally on love with the marriage of teal and hot pink, oh and the little flash of metallic gold. Genius!

Seeing the glossy patent heels make me love them even more! They really are a beautifully conceived and crafted sandal, and whilst they are not exactly cheap still at £192, they are reduced from £274 over at My Wardrobe, which is still a significant £82 saving.

ON SALE! Spliced ankle boots by Stuart Weitzman in bordeaux red

I think this might be the first time that I have featured a louis heel on Shoeniverse, as most of the shoes that are featured tend to be stilettos. But I really REALLY like these, not just for the heel shape that is slightly Victorian, but also for the side detail. Oh, and naturally also for the gorgeous rich bordeaux red colour.



They are on sale on the Stuart Weitzman website, reduced from £261 to £131 - happy shopping! I will be back with more sale alerts in the morning!

ON SALE! Avignon sugar paint glitter flats by B Brian Atwood

I thought I had better find a gorgeous pair of flats to add into the sale alerts, and when I saw these I just knew I had found the perfect pair. They have a subtle shimmer and a delicate pointed toe and a plain toecap. Really beautiful.



They also have a gorgeous gold metallic band around the heel which clearly sets them apart from any of the cheap high street ballet flats. Not that I have anything against a cheap pair of ballet flats, but these are a real step up in terms of quality. They are reduced down from £164 to £115 - so if you are a lady who loves her gorgeous flats this is a great time to grab them.

These gorgeous and very classic little ankle boots are on sale over at Barneys New York. And when I say 'on sale' I mean better than half price too! They are down from £550 to just £220.

I love the simplicity of them, the simple pointed toe and the mid heel - making them wearable for a day out shopping (as you do).

ON SALE! Green ankle strap heels by Sergio Rossi

The last of the Boxing Day sale alerts comes in the form of these stunning jade green platform d'orsay ankle strap sandals from Sergio Rossi. I ADORE these shoes on so many levels, so to see them discounted too is a bit of a treat!



There isn't that much I can really say about them that you can't see for yourselves. They are a beautiful, stunning example of how to create a bright pump with killer feminine curves and an extreme amount of height.  They have a 5.5 inch heel, and I LOVE the watersnake leather in this colour. It just looks amazing!



If you would like to buy them, you will find them reduced from £562 to just £281 over at FORWARD by Elyse Walker.

ON SALE! Ashlyn studded knee high biker boots by Sam Edelman

Mmmhmm, yep we have designer biker boots on sale too - these stunning high boots can be yours for quite a massive saving in the My Wardrobe sale as well - they were £228 and are now down to £159. For such a high boot they are amazing value.



They also sport a full length back zip for ease of use and studs all over the foot strap for a bit of an edge. I really really want to buy these boots.

*gets twitchy fingers and looks longingly at credit card sat on her desk*

Plus they look just as good when worn too...



*notes that they do indeed have her size too... continues to try to resist*

Christmas Presents! Mini Bailey Button UGG boots in tea rose

I thought you might like to see my footwear swag for Christmas day - I have been after the Mini Bailey Button's for a while and when I saw the pretty pink 'tea rose' version, I started to drop some pretty hefty hints!

Gotta love UGG boots - my ultimate comfort footwear - I have several pairs and I LOVE all of them!

Plus mine arrived hidden in one of two huge Hello Kitty storage boxes (because at 38 I clearly need to have Hello Kitty storage for all of my makeup and hair products!) so I actually had no clue that they were sat in the living room either! Brilliant!

What shoes or other footwear did you find hiding under the tree?

Wedding Belles - featuring gorgeous shoes from Monsoon - Anoushka, Kate and Pippa!

I was doing some sale shopping (yes I actually sale shop on Christmas Day!) when I came across a number of shoe styles at Monsoon that would make fantastic bridal shoes. The gorgeous floral slingback heels in ivory above are called Anoushka and would be perfect for a spring or summer wedding.

BUY ANOUSHKA FOR £75



Pippa is a fantastic bridal pump, very much taking inspiration from similar styles from Badgley Mischka with the stunning crystal front embellishment, perfect for if you want to match to antique white gold or silver jewellery.

BUY PIPPA FOR £70



Also on sale is Kate (see what they did there?) which is a full lace covered pump with a low vamp. Perfectly classic and would look incredible paired with a vintage gown.

BUY KATE FOR £70

FESTIVE POST #2 - Christmas Pudding clutch bag by Charlotte Olympia

OK so this is kind of ridiculous, but this will a) TOTALLY make sense once you see the Shoeniverse Christmas Day post (trust me!), and b) this is about as festive as someone is likely to get!



I actually find this bag quite amusing and would probably happily buy a cheaper version of it were I going to a Christmas Party and wanted to be able to get out of dressing up!



The detailing is actually really sweet close up, and whilst there are more pressing needs for me to buy with £495, you can buy it now if you are truly Christmas crazy!

FESTIVE POST #1 Jingle Bell platform pumps by Charlotte Olympia

It's fair to say then that these gorgeous platform pumps from Queen of Quirk Charlotte Olympia is another winner in her long list of 2012 maverick designs. They are basically Dolly (ruffle) with a twist - that being an ankle strap adorned with jingly little bells. Can you actually get much more festive than that?



The upper of course is red velvet, sumptuous and rich and warming. They remind me of mulled wine, and make me want to wear them sat in front of the fire eating mince pies. Surely these are the best representation of Christmas shoes yet?



Of course with Dolly you can detach the ankle straps, making them much more wearable as an evening shoe throughout the year or even just so you can remove them once the novelty of jingling up and down the stairs has worn off. I do wish I owned a pair - I always cook Christmas dinner in heels and a Christmas outfit, and these are just to die for!
