New in; SHOES

 I have been searching for black boots for the past few months now, but nothing here in Holland fitted my needs or desires. A friend of mine told me to be patient and that I will find them in London, and so I did! These are ankle length, cut-outs and very versatile.  The bottom ones I just happen to spot at a market and how often does it happen that designer shoes at a thrift store happen to be your size and affordable as well? I got lucky with these Ferragamo lady shoes can't wait for warmer weather!

All that glitter is not gold...

 I couldn't help myself, but to wear the gold wedges. They are mighty comfortable and jazz up any outfit! Still I wish it was warmer out, just a few days and I'll be in warm Curaçao.

Fall's loafers and Flats

Fall is perfect for wearing loafers and flats, even though it can be rainy and quite cold... I try to hold off wearing boots as long as possible. My favorites at the moment are; My newest editions to my loafer collection, Gap's half haired, camouflage print loafers. I have been wanting something camo print, but since it seems like everybody is rocking the camp jacket I went for these to rock my feet.

Besides the Camo print, I love Glitters(!) and Gold(!) right now. 

They can make any outfit preppy chic.

What's your favorite fall footwear? 

 Top; Glitter flats; Nine West (old)

Bottom; Gold mary janes; Zara for girls (the kids sized go up to size 38!)

Shoe Love; Guatemalan inspired

I'm baaahack! Lately I've been seeing lots of these South-American style shoes and accessories. Last spring I had bought my own pair via Lulu's, but hadn't had the chance to wear them that often due to a horrible summer. New season about to begin and I practically have a new pair of shoes to wear (= a happy me).

For those who follow me on Twitter (@FemiMeaux) might have seen the Reef Bella Costa video, I think it's a beautiful film, showing how this fabric is made. Enjoy! and and how bout a treat for your feet?! XO

Outfit Post; New See By Chloé Boots

I've had this dress laying around for a while now, just never got the chance to "outfit-post" it. Now I finally do, with my new boots too. I got these boots through an auction site called;  Vault79, they auction of a few designer items everyday. These things can be tricky and you need to know your limits. Luckily I got them for about 1/3 of the retail price! It was so exciting seeing the clock count down and knowing these Chloé's were mine!

DIY; Update your worn out shoes

Hi Lovelies, a little quick DIY. If you're tired of your worn out shoes (my bf really does wear them till the soles fall off!) or just up for a new pair but can't afford 'em right now... here is an easy way to update a pair, it's as easy as 1,2,3! Honestly!! 

1. What you need; 

-Old pair of shoes  

-Leather/suede string (+/- 1.5-2 meters) from the craft or fabric store

2. Cut into 2 even strings, pull them through the shoes

3. Et Voila! ready to wear!

New in; Boots

Hi there, I got these last week in "the spur of the moment". I was never big on fur, maybe because I grew up on an island where it's always 30*C and sunny (oh and well these of course are faux fur). Then I saw them, tried them on and bought them (on sale!). Maybe it's the fashion frenzy that won me over or maybe it's the fact I hung out with a half Russian last weekend, but I'm in love with my newest purchase! and they love me back keeping my feet warm these cold days.
