Check out my new brogues which finally arrived today after ordering them from Schuh! I'm very excited at a flat style being so fashionable right now, as despite loving the sexy architecture of heels I don't wear them very well and usually end up falling on my ass..I'm definitely a flats girl and these tan leathers make a refreshing change from pumps and are perfect for running all over town in, with dresses and jeans..the leather is super soft and they are priced at €65 from Schuh..I reckon I will be living in these for autumn so they are well worth shelling out for..I've already got my eye on a wine pair at Office and a patent candy pink pair from Topshop..I think one pair will have to do me for now though! :(

  1. Delicious! I sooo wanted these too! I'm definately a heels girl,(though I'm with you on the falling on one's ass comment)it takes something super special to tempt me down off my 6 iches!
    But in true frugal fashion, you will be super proud of me Ms Recessionista, instead of buying this pair I'm wearing a vintage pair that my Mum gave me instead! x

  2. I just saw them! they are perfect! The black will go with everything.. I couldn't decide between black or not but seeing as all my pumps and ankle boots etc are black I went for the tan in the end..wish I could walk in heels, I blame my odd inward leaning feet rather than a lack of grace :(

  3. Are you serious that those shoes are in fashion??? They look like something my granny would have worn. I'm not doubting your ability to team them with a dazzling outfit Niamh but seriously...

    (Bear in mind that this is coming from the girl who lives in flannel years and old jeans so I don't have a sartorial leg to stand on but I can't believe that some of stuff that would have had you laughed out of town one year is considered high fashion the next.)

  4. ah Lisa it's true! I couldn't quite lift the correct picture from the site so I think these are the mens ones, too big looking! but yeah I've been a fan of brogues for ages, it's all about how u wear them..oh and check shirts are all over the shops right now as well so you will be totally on trend when you emerge from the canadian ski slopes and come home!
