Anyway, as I was saying the sales have started early which has it advantages and disadvantages. I seem to get screwed every time I purchase shoes lately, they either don't fit, sell out or like I realised on Friday, get reduced! I desperately wanted the Irregular Choice Diamontina boots and after they disappeared from the IC site, I was told they would only be sold in their London shop (not much use to me in Scotland). ASOS had sold out of the size 5 and although Office sold them online, I really wanted a discount code to get the £125 price down to a more reasonable £100 say and Office hardly ever offer discounts. I thought I lucked out last weekend when ASOS got more stock (of all sizes) and had a 20% offer on. As you know Santa purchased the boots and I was one happy bunny. Until Friday, when I check the Office sale and they are half price at £62.50!!!! Ouch! Soooo, unfair. I wouldn't mind if it had been after Christmas, when I was expecting it, but I haven't even worn the boots (obviously). I could return the ASOS pair, but I'm not sure how that would work with the discount in regards to the rest of my order (you had to spend £200 to qualify for 20% off and the boots were a huge chunk of that). My Mum says not to return them because of my bad luck lately....it's just so damned annoying!
That said, the Office sale is fantabulous and I would highly recommend the Diamontina boots (available in black or red). I ordered these Kill Doll 'Face Up To It' ankle boots which I've had my eye on for months (£50, now £35), also available in a court shoe, although I much prefer the boot.
If it's knee high boots you're looking for I love, Chamois (black leather or suede), Come Hither and Celine Stud (brown or black), all down to £80.
While these 'Shimmy' court shoes from Irregular Choice feature the same diamond shaped heel as my boots and are £42.50 reduced from £85 (also available in black). Many Miss L Fire styles are reduced and I like this tan, strappy 'Da Vinci' pair for £60 (was £105), also in black.
If it's super high platforms you are after then these 'Party All Night' peep toes are £40 instead of £85 and I love the leopard print 'Sole Survivor' reduced from £90 to £40.
Finally, I've bought several pairs from the Designer Clearance section over this past year. I'm not sure if many people are familiar with it, but there are many designer brands for a fraction of the retail price, often just with one pair, so it pays to get in quick. If you are a size 3 there is one pair left of these pink, frilled courts from Emporio Armani for an unbelievable £70, what an amazing Christmas present they would be. Size 7's (2 pairs) and 8's (1 pair) should definitely pick up these Eley Kishimoto strapped brogues for £60. There are many more great bargains and they are often updated, so it's always worth checking out this section.
