Winter Essentials

Other than a super warm coat, a black boot is a definite winter essential. Although I have a fair amount of boots already/shoes in general, I couldn't go past these gems! You can wear boots all year round so I don't feel too guilty about adding a few more to my collection. heh.

If you know me, you would know that I am a passionate vegan, so winning - these shoes are synthetic! I was tossing up between two colours for the faux suede boot as it came in a really nice tan, and now I am second guessing my decision! First world problems.

Rubi Shoes - Amber boot, $49.95
Neutral, Apricot and Black

I am quite a fan of Rubi Shoes and these boots are no exception. I love the chunky heel, fringe embellishment on the zipper and the amazing Apricot colour. Can you believe that they are comfortable? The insole feels like rubber and are therefore quite comfortable and although the heel height is 10cm they are the perfect everyday winter boot.

Even though the Apricot colour was gorgeous I decided to go with the black for ease of wear, these are perfect with jeans and go nicely with stockings too. A definate must for all you shoe lovers out there.

DIY Glitter Wedge

As mentioned in a previous post, I decided to DIY glitter some wedges to cover up a small mark. As the shoes were beige I decided to go with a chunky gold look. I absolutely love how these turned out! I used Rubi Shoes, Ankle Strap Peep Toe Wedge

New Shoes

Sorry for the lack of posting! Uni and work have me very busy!

For all you Aussies,  I'm sure you love DFO just as much as me. I decided to pop into Rubi Shoes just for a quick look and the Faulties table caught my eye... I picked up these boots and amazingly they were $5 !! So I decided to have another look and got some beige wedges for $5 too, and the only ones in my size, a sign?? I think so! A buckle had fallen off the boots and the wedges had a pink highlighter mark... easily fixed. A bit of glue and maybe some DIY glitter in the near future...

So trust me do not avoid the faulties table they can be your new best friend!

Then... I saw Tony Bianco, and convinced myself it was okay to look because I needed some new birthday shoes! 25% off storwide... I was in there for over an hour! Finally I decided on these gorgeous boots and my birthday heels ( You'll have to wait and see! )
