FASHION | Zara Red Patent Dolly Shoes

Zara - £15.99

I gots new shoes! They were a total impulse buy at the end of December as I was walking out of Zara feeling very disappointed with the sale and there they were, looking all cute and shiny. As soon as I paid I changed into them and they looked so lovely with my navy coat and half beehive 'do and I felt so adorable and I kept them on until well after I got home despite the fact that they were killing me (they were ouchful to break in) because it was love and I was gonna wear them with everything.

However I have not worn them since that day, they're currently sitting getting dusty in my shoe thing wondering what the hell happened, what did they do wrong...why didn't I call them back? I treated them badly and led them on and for that I am sorry.

This is why the 5 Piece Wardrobe thing had to happen.

  6. Aaaaaaaa...they should come out again. They do look good. Maybe, once they're completely broken in, they won't be too bad.

  9. These shoes are definitely Annie shoes!!!! Please wear them everyday if it is gonna make the sun come out!!! :-) They are adorable. Even if they just look adorable from on a shoe rack. Everyone has a pair of those shoes right? Just to look at.

  16. I saw these online a couple of weeks before the sales started and was so tempted to get them and by the time I went to the sales they never had a pair in sight! :( They are so beautiful but they do look like a pair that would just shred my feet to pieces.
    I hope you fall in love with them again as they are so pretty and you got them at a great price too! :)

  17. Ah, they're so sweet! Look kinda painful to wear the first few times though, patent leather always seems stiffer for some reason.
    What a bargain though! xx

  18. Aw they're so lovely, you should definitely wear them more often! Xxx

  19. These are absolutely adorable! And the colour is such a perfect alternative to black.

  21. Beauties! <3

    I am so guilty of not calling shoes back ;-) I have a purple patent pair of topshop flats that I've not even touched despite loving them online *guilty face*

  24. Oh at least you've been reunited again! Though I hope they've been broken into. Nothing I hate more than having to bust a pair in for comfort. I'm squirming just thinking about the pain!

  26. Maybe they can be shoe friends with my similar shoes?! I started clearing out today ready for a bit of an Ebay selling spree (to get some money to buy more neglected shoes no doubt!) and I found my own (pillarbox) red patent dolly shoes, the only difference being the colour and mine having a t-bar. I couldn't even bare to part with them, they so pretty! I only wore mine about twice if that, they hurt so bad! xxx

  27. These definitely remind me of Dorothy's pair. I'm in love!
