Meet Lana...

Hello!

Sorry for being away so long; I'd like to say that I've been really busy with work and other unpleasantries but truth be told, it was my birthday!

And birthdays mean lots of lounging around, being waited on hand and foot (hopefully), sat around drinking cocktails and scoffing birthday cake. For the past two weeks I've been in the birthday mindset and been totally lazy- my gym bag has been in my car, unused for three weeks! Oh dear...

Anyway, I wanted to share my fave birthday present which was gifted to me by my amazing boyfriend.

Drum roll please.

JEFFREY CAMPBELL LANA'S!!!

Another pair to add to the collection!

I've had my eye on them on Motel Rocks since they went live so was really chuffed to get them! They're so bloody high but amazingly comfortable- even more so than the Lita's, I would say; I think there's extra padding inside.

I love them because they're a bit different. I find that the Lita has been copied to death and there are so many good fakes that sometimes I go out in mine and doubt that anyone knows the difference. These are really quirky; I love the curved heel, cut out back and the distressing around the toe. They're really unique.

If they look a little scuffed it's because I'd already been out in them. Far too keen.

The Jeffrey Campbell shoe boxes are always so lovely with pretty illustrations on them.

I wore them out on my birthday and lasted all night without blisters or having to limp, dance standing on the spot or taking them off- a feat rarely achieved by most of my other shoes!

I also wore them out to the cinema earlier this week (watched Looper, it was brilliant!). This is what I wore:

Earrings: Car boot sale; Patterned blouse: £3.50, charity shop; Cuff: Portugal; Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell @ Motel Rocks

Love,

Foxy

Hey, I put some new shoes on...

Or rather I put them on my bed- haven't had much chance to wear them!

They are of course my new Jeffrey Campbell Litas, eek!

Yes, I'm a bit late but I've wanted these for SO long. I couldn't justify buying them whilst I was a student then I did the whole moving, getting a full time job, generally struggling along thing, THEN, I had my birthday and got paid the same day and it was apparent that the time had come!

After discovering a few months ago that Office stocked them online, I've been dying to add them to my basket. English girls will know how difficult they were to get over here!

Even the box is beautiful. It's got a gorgeous crossword illustration on it. The subject matter? Shoes of course! I really want to complete it but probably shouldn't spoil the box.

I'll do an outfit post with them soon. I wore them for the first time to the cinema last night (watched Drive. I was dubious but it was actually very good. Loved the 80s vibe) but didn't have time to take pictures. Admittedly I didn't walk very far but I can confirm that they didn't hurt my feet in the slightest. Hoping that the reports of them being amazingly comfortable to wear are true- I'll let you know when they've had a better run!

Does anyone else think they make your feet look big? I reckon mine look at least a size larger in them. They get away with it for being so awesome though.

I'll also do a post soon on other pressies and bits I got for my birthday.

Have you treat yourselves to anything nice recently?
