Isabelle gets the hang of the high street

new shoes
Hand on heart I promise than when I rave about La Cage Aux Folles, or tweet about Songkick (it’s going to change my life) or post another damn New Look thing on my blog I’m only doing it for the love. (I really love la Cage Aux Folles). I spotted these shoes on a trend scout downstairs and when she said they were from New Look at the new Oxford St store I pretty much ran in to get them at 5.30.

Big deal, crepe-soled heels, they’re so BOT I know pretty much everyone has got them. But these are really comfy and only £40, and they’re kind of the shoe I’ve been searching for all winter, despite trying similar styles. I’m confused, I seem to be getting the hang of high street shopping. I’m going to go the the charity shops at the weekend, to test my chazza mojo, maybe I can double fist shopping skills. More on this when I have finally bought myself a laptop. So let’s end this post in style with a little Cage Aux Folles song sung by Perry Como:

The shoes are online now, here is the link: shooes

    I take pictures of new shoes in EXACTLY the same way (both legs in air, one foot to side and other flat on side on carpet). Even same distance from camera, everything. Cisterns eh? x

    Oh my. They are all sorts of awesome. And a good £40 cheaper than the near exact ones I was drooling over in Zara, not so long ago. It’s a done deal!x

    -Louise: Not sure, index finger height? They’re really confy thoguh, and coming from a committed flats wearer like me that’s something.

    -Natalie: I know! Glad you feel the same way…
