A comfy heel…?

Fashion - By Alexandra Stedman

Coat: £100, Asos. Shirt: £40, Atterley Road (available here in red or buy similar from Zara here). Jeans: MiH jeans (buy similar wash here). Shoes: £120, Seven boot Lane. Bag: £81, Atterley Road

So they’re not technically heels – but they give a little lift whilst still feeling flat – that’s a yes in my books. The recent glimpses of sun has been a welcome opportunity to show off a bit of ankle – I’ve been buying a few sandals lately to will spring along.

I must admit, I was never quite into the oversized flatform trend before, it was all a bit too ‘Camden’ for me. But a tailored wedge or slight espadrille ‘lift’ I can do…
On my new stairs for my loft….it’s almost done! Leather leggings, £99, Marks & Spencer
Leather wedges, £60, Next
Espadrilles, £17.99, New Look

    These look amazing! But when I bought them they were so hard – despite the leather tag and the price tag you would never know they were leather. Do you have any secrets Alex for wearing such stiff shoes? Please tell if so! Hx

      Maybe there's something wrong with me? Maybe it's from working in fashion, I'm used to uncomfortable shoes! To be honest, I find most shoes, even my most comfy ones, hurt at first and the more i wear them I break into them….As long as they're not super high I can generally persevere x

    Sorry for the above – just realised that you are wearing two different pairs of shoes – the Seven boot lane ones and the Next ones. I was talking about the next ones not the SBLs.

      It's an old one from Atterley Road, annoyingly it sold out and they never restocked it – such a shame as it is such a good buy!
