Shopping: ankle boots

Autumn is here and I need a new pair of shoes. Some people might slightly disagree when inspecting my shoe collection (hubby...), but I honestly need something that is not overly wintery (boots), yet can be worn with socks (my feet get too cold in flats now!). Therefore, I need ankle boots.

Ever since falling in love with these beauties (below) back in spring, I now need a darker pair that could be worn when out with a toddler (do they have food-stain resistant ones?), be comfortable when driving and look good when I am going to my various work meetings.

Acne

So here are my top three:

1. It's got to be Acne again. These are just perfect.

Chesnut Pistol Ankle Boot. £350 from my-wardrobe.com

2. Gorgeous colour (not to mention great discount) - Cynthia Vincent.

12th Street by Cynthia Vincent, were £310 now £154.99, available at The Outnet

3. Simple yet cool - Ash.

Ash Jalouse, £149, available from Ash Footwear

Shopping: shoes

Warning: this post contains quite a few images of lovely looking shoes (some of them are not very reasonably priced)!

My personal shopper aka Mother is in town for a few days so it's a great opportunity to update my currently pretty much non-existent S/S2013 wardrobe!

Destination: Kings road, Harrods and Fenwick at Bond Street

These little beauties are from one of my favourite shops in London - Blue Velvet on Kings Road. They were the first pair I tried on and after trying on many many more afterwards (and much more expensive), I came back and got them! Love everything about them and they are really comfortable, which is an important aspect when you have a toddler.

Funky flats. Hogan Katie Grand Collection available at Harrods

Pink Todd's available at Fenwick

Classic Ferragamo. Love these. I own a similar pair in navy. Had them for over five years. These will never ever go out of fashion. Could be justified as an investment piece...
