Pierce my heart

I have a real talent for impractical shoes. Whilst in rainy Manchester this weekend visiting the goth-in-laws I mistakenly wore suede ankle boots which were quickly soaked through and ruined.

Fortunately I remembered the Office card a friend had kindly given me for my birthday, and decided to replace them. I've had a look around Office a few times but not found anything particularly exciting. But this was an emergency, and perhaps the influence of the goths had rubbed off a bit as I completely fell in love with these Pierce My Heart black leather shoe boots.



The leather is beautifully soft and the straps have a cute little button detail, but the real clinchers are the peep-toes and 4.5" heels.

Yes, peep-toes. I bought boots with peep-toes to replace boots that had been soaked in the RAIN. doh!

Nonetheless they are fantastic boots and I look forward to wearing them when it's dry. Or inside. Full price £65 from Office, I got them for £5 with a gift card - an absolute bargain :)

The mighty boosh

My sale purchases from asos turned up last night.



A bargain at £15, and having worn them all day today, pretty comfortable too.

But are they boots or are they shoes? Asos describe them, unimaginatively, as shoe boots. Please! Surely shoots. Or Booshes. Actually I reckon there simply isn't enough of them to describe as boots at all, but whatever they are I like 'em a lot and intend to wear them into the ground over the next couple of months.

Shoes or boots? You decide.

Comfort factor: 4
Value: 5 - £15! I love asos!
Style: 5 - check out the red soles! They're like a cross between the Louboutin and Stellas I've been drooling over
