This weather tends to make us confine any elegant shoes to the back of the cupboard until the sun shines again. My feet have been in encased in ugly old boots for the last month and I think they're a bit fed up. I do hate the words 'practical footwear'. It summons up the idea of Crocs (urgh!) and clonky old clodhoppers you can purchase from the back of the Radio Times.
I do love a pair of glamorous flats so you can imagine my delight when I saw these beauties in French Sole. (I love French Sole) As fancy as a pair of heels but flat. Hurrah! So even on slippery slushy streets I can maintain my balance after one too many rum punches. To appease my guilt for shoe shopping in January (when I am most definitely defaulting on my gas bill) I discovered these shoes have actually been created by French Sole for the Starlight Foundation and HALF of the money from every pair go to this wonderful charity which makes me feel very warm inside.
They're looking a bit low in stock on the website but I called the wonderfully helpful people at the shop and they had my size. I realised the reason I gravitated towards them was because they reminded me of my favourite Anya Hindmarch Valorie clutch which I have mentioned before.

Then I thought I could wear them together but (even though my sartorial motto is generally 'More Is More') I fear that would certainly be considered overkill...
Too much?!
Too much?!
Beautiful shoes , and I most definitely think they should be worn with the clutch, most definitely !
