Shoes are a girls best friend; Zara shoe haul!

Hey guys!

Since we are well and truly into autumn I thought it was about time I picked up a pair of winter boots. I saw a pair of boots on asos which where the aldo bronx boots which I absolutely loved and wanted so much, but they went out of stock and I couldn't find them anywhere. So when I was browsing the Zara website and spied these boots (which were very similar to the aldo ones!) I knew I had to have them. I also ended up picking up some pointed toe heels because I loved that they were slightly different to your normal patent pointed toe. I've wanted a nice pair of sophisticated heels for ages too.



The service was relatively quick- Zara says that delivery is between 3-5 days and my shoes were delivered on the 4th day. Standard shipping is also free is you spend over £50. The boxes they came in where ok, not something I'd keep the shoes in I don't think, they were just plain brown with Zara written across the front. My two pairs came in their own boxes inside one GIANT box.

I was slightly disappointed when the shoes arrived because they really didn't look like what they did online and I originally preferred how they looked online. After some thought and deliberation I did decide to keep both pairs and I have decided I really do like them.

The boots were £89.99 and they do feel very good quality, they don't look cheap in my eyes. The chain on them is quite heavy but so is the boot overall. They're quite a hard leather that will look even better with age. When they first arrived I was slightly worried that they would be too punk or harsh looking but when I tried them on with a few different outfits I realised they just gave the perfect amount of edginess to so many outfits. They really scream biker chick. I think these will be perfect in the winter because they are so solid! And easy to wear, the heel isn't very high at all and they are surprisingly super comfy. I would recommend them to anybody who has been eyeing them up.






I've wanted a nice pair of sophisticated heels for a while and when I saw these I knew they would fit the bill. They are a mixture of leather and suede, pointed toe and a reasonable heel hight- perfection in a shoe! Admittedly like the boots they did look different on the website and originally I did contemplate sending them back. The pointed part of the shoe is definitely more pointed than I thought it would be and that's the only part that put me off them. I actually wore them out on the weekend and got so many compliments on them. I did find towards the end of the night that the leather had stretched slightly which meant that they were making my feet slip up and down, but they seemed to have stretched width way. I have relatively wide feet so I wouldn't advise anybody with very very narrow feet to go for these. They are a very sophisticated and classy shoe and I cannot wait to wear them again. These were cheaper than the boots coming in at £49.99 which for nice, quality heels I thought was very reasonable.
