New shoes

What a dreary old day!  I've cheered up slightly as I bought some new shoes.  These Christian Louboutin peep toe court shoes  have been used for shoots (technically they're secondhand) so they were £200.  I can't actually afford them so the overdue water rates bill will now have to get knocked back for another month.  Ooops.

I love these pictures.  The flower make-up in the first one is gorgeous.  The other two are from a shoot for Italian Vogue.  The flowers are fabulous and so are the outfits.  Mariacarla is wearing my Giles for Christian Louboutin shoes from last year.
