I had gone to that 24hr Asda obeying my midnight cravings for a salad, and there they were on the shelf for £12. I swear that summer, everyone believed me when I joked they were Prada! (oops, u must have misheard guys, i swear i said A-s-d-a).
It was that same year I saw a supermarket brand -this one- being featured in a sponsored still life section of Vogue UK. Was quite shocked.

I guess this is the first post that clearly shows what this blog is all about, and that is style rather than fashion or brand names. I don't think there's a brand I wouldn't wear, provided I like what I see, can afford it and is in line with my ethics (I am so against real fur, sorry fur lovers!).
Small exception, I totally dissapprove of knock offs. I'd never go to the concert of Madonna's look-alike so why would I ever buy a fake Prada? As for my George Asda sandals, well, they were out years before miu miu 'planted' that flower.
At the moment I am obsessed with Marni's Mary-Jane rubber pumps. Net-a-porter too, sadly no sale (€260). Very close to buying them...
Thank you dear! I love every single pair of shoes here. Those black ones with the flowers are amazing. :) You have a great blog!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't have guessed that!I was so curious all these days! :) I have some lovely summer dressed from Asda..And I really want a pair of mary-janes similar to these:

Those are really cute! I love the second pair :)

The Marnis are great, they look a bit like wellies but in a good way! I agree about knock-offs, I think it's sort of sleazy and unfair to whoever designed it - basically plaigerism! I totally wouldn't have guessed your shoes were from Asda! Char x
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I didn't guess - I would have totally gotten that one wrong!
ReplyDeleteI love decorative touches on shoes!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous picks here!

The shoes are SO pretty! It is amazing how great a pair of shoes can make a girl feel so good.
ReplyDeleteI'm addicted to Miu Miu shoes.. I love those flats!
ReplyDeleteGood old George @ Asda, those shoes are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteASDA! I would never have guessed - but i actually think they're nicer than the Miu Miu ballarina's, though I like the style of the shoe itself. I don't have an ASDA near by, and Sainsburys clothing range just isn't as good ... bring back supermarket clothes!

totally agree that style is about how/what you wear rather than who it's by or what it cost.
ReplyDeleteThose shoes would be such a good DIY project!
ReplyDeleteThose Mary-Jane's are cool. I can't believe they're made from rubber.
ReplyDeleteOMG!
ReplyDeletelove the shoes!

Great find, those ASDA beauties! But it just makes me pissed off that we don't have something similar in Greece. Bummer!
ReplyDelete(I *love* the Marni ones! And they must be comfy as hell too, rubber and all. Are you still contemplating them?)
Lovely lovely lovely!
ReplyDeleteFlower details are always cute and stylish.
