Stellas

Over the years Tom has proved himself master of presents, particularly of the shoe variety. Of particular note were the Irregular Choice hula wedges, and the beautiful pink Prada kitten heels. But this year he's outdone himself:



Mmm mmm *mmm* these are possibly the loveliest shoes I've ever seen. Stella McCartney satin platform pumps in fuchsia with a 4" heel and graduated platform.

Of course since they are all-over satin I will never be able to wear them outside, but frankly if you're wearing Stella McCartney shoes you shouldn't be walking anywhere anyway. Last night we went to the Dorchester for cocktails (changed shoes in the cab) and then on to Scott's in Mayfair, a mere 10 minute walk away but a matter of moments in another cab. And then another cab back to Hackney.

On an ongoing basis these may well prove to be the most expensive shoes of all time...

stella boots

Last year when I went to Harrods to buy my nonsmokiversary Kurt Geiger boots I saw a pair of the most gorgeous Stella McCartney black ankle boots with removable socks.



Unfortunately the only remaining pair were size 3. Size 3?? Who on earth has size 3 feet, apart from children and pixies?

I am absolutely desperate to get my hands on a pair of these, but so far can't find them anywhere despite the power of the interweb :(
