diamonds! shoes! are a girls best friends..






 (some of my favorite shoes and their new home)



I think this has become a forgotten post; about my suitcase i purchased and didn't show..

Well we all know a girl can never have to many shoes!
But it's the problem of where to store them?
I don't know about you; but i have some thrown under my bed, in the bottom of my wardrobe, our shoe closet downstairs, and some nicer ones kept in their boxes..

But i wanted to place some of my favorite ones altogether..

I spotted this little trunk in a vintage store i volunteered in, it was reasonably cheap and would fit in with my theme of my bedroom well..
ok, so it is really battered, but I was going for the rustic look? and it is on-top of my wardrobe so the wears and tears aren't visible..
but it is handy, and now my wardrobe floor is clean of shoes!

    1. i looked on ebay but the prices were so expensive compared to the size.. I would really recommend looking into charity/vintage shops, or even car boots! They have so many pretty ones (in better condition that mine; but slightly smaller I've noticed, and with maximum £8!)thankyou and good luck!

  4. Oh what a lovely idea! I'm always losing my shoes under chairs and such, I found this beautiful union jack printed suitcase that I'm desperately saving up for but vintage looks like the best way to go ('specially since I'm useless at saving up :S tehe)
    Ooh also totally envying your shoe collection, where were your chelsea boots from if you don't mind me asking? :)

    1. I saw some lovely ones in places like John Lewis, but when the decision came to paying £40-£70 or £8; i gave in, so I'm pretty useless at saving up too! Haha, thanks! My parents bought me them for christmas, i think they were from the Topshop Premium range.. you can't see in the picture but them have studs on the back too :)x
