Schuh Street Style

Weekly Love

This week Schuh have been shown a lot of love by weekly fashion magazines Look and Grazia.  Always good to know that someone loves the shoes as much as me.

Grazia featured these amazing boots in todays (25th August) issue.  I have tried these on so many times, I absolutely love them.  They are on my wishlist so I will get them eventually...I hope!  They will give any outfit just the right amount of "pop", you could even try clashing them with another colour for all out colour blocking.

Look magazine used these four styles:

 

There was one more style used but this style is not in stock until the end of the week, I will post about it when I arrives.

Avril has a Iron Fist

Been a while since we have seen Avril "Girlfriend" Lavigne but over in the US of A she has been spotted rocking a gorgeous purple prom dress (think I quite want it) and some Iron Fist shows.  Iron Fist are very new to Schuh but we already love them a great deal and they are proving to be very popular indeed.

I think they look just as amazing with black opaque tights as they do with bare legs.  At least this way they are a little bit more UK weather friendly:)

Possible purchase?

I think these are maybe the perfect Autumn/Winter boot.  They have both a country heritage feel/punk rock feel to them which makes them incredibly versatile.  Imagine them teamed with a floral dress and loose studded bag....or t-shirt dress and messed up hair.  Crikey.  The more I talk about these boots the more I want them.  I think Taylor Momsen of Gossip Girl fame would really rock these!!

Go Go Twiggy

 I don't know if it is cool or not but I have been a longtime admirer of Twiggy (even now I hope to age as well as she has...unlikely!).  The pixie crop, big eyes, lashings of eyeliner/mascara and the cute scooter dresses.  So much to love and admire:)  

I don't have much of a Twiggy collection apart from the cotton carrier bag from Marks and Spencer which I love and use all the time!

However at some point over the next few months that is set to change as I will be buying these from Schuh.  They are even called Red or Dead Twiggy, how amazing?  I think they will make a really good addition to my shoe collection, will probably wear them for most of the winter months with cute dresses and thick tights.

Little Pixie...Lott of attitude!

She's not even been around for that long but has already become a bit of a fashion icon, I love her ability to switch from high glam to festival friendly styles and still look great...I do appreciate a versatile celebrity!  I can't find it but this morning I saw a photo of her wearing a lovely cream lace dress with black biker boots and I LOVED it...in fact I loved it so much she has inspired my choice of winter boot.

Ooh and this is an insider treat, these bad boys are not in until the end of the week!! Anyway, back to my original point.  Pixie Lott.  

Here are a few images of her:

        

So to channel her look grab yourself some plimsolls and some very cute shoe boots (she seems to wear these A LOT!). If I ever find the photo of her in the dress/biker boots combo, I will post it.

High Heights

Going through a major hi-top phase at the moment.  Is this normal for a lady in her late twenties?!  Not that it matters to me, there is no upper age limit on fashion;)

These adidas Missy E Fly Hoops Mid are my current obsession:

They work perfectly with the jeggings trend that is around at the moment and I am not adverse to pairing them with the odd body-con dress/skirt.  However, as much as I love these trainers the all-whiteness of them is slightly scary (would need to dirty them up!).  I am usually very much a colour/pattern lover, so maybe I should consider a pair of these instead:

Hmmmmmm, decisions x

Hooray for Liberty

I have always had a bit of a thing for Liberty prints and when Nike released their Liberty print Dunks  I knew I had to have a pair.  I was lucky enough to get a pair when I was in New York last year and I adore them (even although I am scared to wear them outside incase they get wet!).  

This morning I received an email from Liberty as they are doing lots of things with the prints just now including a bit of a paint job.

All of this has just reminded me how much I like the print so I got super excited when I saw these gorgeous little booties from Clarks .  Really very wearable despite the out-there print, I think they will look amazing with both black and coloured opaques come the winter months.  I will upload some photos when I buy them!Clarks Original Desert Liberty Print

Back to basics...celebrity fashion!

Won't make any excuses for the break - just bad bad bad.  Back to what I do best, admiring and talking about celebrity fashion.  Some of you cynics out there may not think that the Teen Choice Awards would be a hot bed for good style but I disagree.  There were some amazing outfits on show and one pair of red heels that especially caught my eye........kudos to you Miss Meester. 

Let's start with a token guy though.  I am a big fan of Ed Westwick in Gossip Girl and as a model he knows how to hold himself in the world of fashion too and I think this James Dean T-Shirt is amazing, I quite want it.

Next up is Kristen Stewart.  I have long admired her rock chick take on the red carpet, you never quite know what she is going to appear in.  I LOVE the spikes:

Finally I have to mention another Gossip Girl actor,Leighton Meester.  The whole outfit is amazing but I love the shoes, despite being red and quite girly they still have a certain edge:
