I put some new shoes on and suddenly everything’s right

By Sarah Redman

Yes I chose my title inspiration from Paolo Nutini – if by any chance you don’t know him then have a Google or hit up YouTube or iTunes. At the moment I’m obsessed with his new album, Caustic Love.

The title also has some inference on the point of this post. It doesn’t take a genius: New shoes.

Nude pumps & Cuticle tattoos

These are just your bog standard Ballet Pumps from H&M, retailing at £7.99, these beauties come in pretty much every colour. A put on an go kind of shoe, these are made of faux suede so are soft and sweet. Not fantastic for a day of serious walking but they look cute, a versatile and cheep. Sold.

Unfortunately these have now been slightly chewed at the back by puppy who is now one year old – and yes still running off with my shoes. Sob!

It’s a sign

‘Good things happen when you wear the right shoes’

I am known for dragging out my birthday celebrations, but this year i took it to a new level – receiving a birthday present just over three months after.

This lovely sign is from my friend Gem, who recently reminded me that wearing a pair new pair of shoes can change your life… by quoting Cinderella! I think working at a nursery is starting to rub off on her advice, although i am clearly wearing the wrong pair of shoes for writing this blog post as little Harley is currently chewing my new slippers and trying to get them off my feet. This was definitely a bad time to buy new slippers!
