Today let's talk about one of the biggest mall chains in the world, Westfield! They have malls everywhere, from Australia and New Zealand to London and of course in the US (which are the ones I frequent).   More specifically let's talk about one of my favorite things to shop for: shoes!  Westfield has an amazing selection of womens boots, high heels and wedges shoes!  In Australia they carry a wide variety of brands such as adidas, UGG, Billabong, drmartens, Merrell, Guess, NIKE, TOMS and even Dolce & Gabbana!

I had so much fun checking out all the shoes, below are some of my favorite finds, there are plenty more where these came from!  Make sure to check out all the womens shoes at Westfield! What do you think?

In short, this week was pretty insane. Suffice it to say I didn't have time for outfit pictures, BUT I did take photos of my shoes of the week. I figured this would be a fun change since you don't usually see much of my shoes in the full outfit shots. [I'm even posting what I'm wearing this weekend since I already know what I'm wearing for Christmas and Christmas Eve]  After work today the festivities begin! Well, not exactly, but this weekend will be wonderful. Christmas celebration number 1 is tomorrow with my Dad's side of the family, and number 2 is on Christmas day with my Mom's side! What are your Christmas plans? (or weekend plans if you don't celebrate)


Monday: vintage via eBay $11


Tuesday: Missoni for Target $30


Wednesday: Chaps from Kohl's $8.50


Thursday: Alexander Wang via The Outnet gift


Friday: H&M $13


Saturday/Sunday: Miu Miu via eBay

To say that I am obsessed with these Miu Miu Calf hair leopard sandals would be a major understatement. Ever since I laid my eyes on them I have wanted, no...NEEDED them in my closet. I will have no other leopard sandal, none can measure up to the awesomeness of these. They are gorgeous, the leopard print is perfect, the shape of the shoe and the design of it is just amazing. You can wear them alone, with tights or socks....and if you're the Man Repeller you can wear them with ANYTHING.

When these came out I could just not afford to spend the $795 on them (well...I could have, but that is an insane amount of money to pay for shoes so I couldn't justify it). Sadly I cannot get them out of my mind so for the past, I dunno, 6 months I have been scouring ebay to find them.  Whenever I see them my heart skips a beat and then I look at the size, most of the time they aren't my size and I get very depressed. BUT if they are my size my stomach drops as I look at the price, the last pair I found was $1200...UM NO!  So I am still on the hunt and on Friday I saw a pair for $500 (still WAY too much but that is how bady I want these) but sadly they were a half size too small...and they sold less than an hour after I saw them, so I need to be fast when I find my size!

So if anyone ever sees these in a size 38 - 39 PLEASE let me know! I will love you forever! My real size is a 38.5, but sometimes these run small so a 39 could possibly fit.  What would be REALLY amazing is if The Outnet got these in stock soon since they usually get items after Net-a-Porter, but these were so popular that I doubt there are any left... *sigh*

Since this post is mostly text here are photos of two of my favorite bloggers wearing these ;)

Here's the second edition of Perfect Basics! Today I'm going with a "classic" (*see below) item that many women lust over: The Black Christian Louboutin pump! There are many different styles of these so whenever I save up all the money for these babies I'll have to go to a store and try them all on to see what looks best. But just looking online I have fallen in love with these Leather Platform Pumps, they are just PERFECT! The price on the other hand, at $795, is not so perfect. *sigh*
I'm not sure I'm quite ready to drop this much money on a pair of shoes yet, but they will last a long time and they are timeless so I can wear them until I am an old woman (except they are a bit tall so I'm not sure about that...I could get the non-platform version though). These are definitely going to have to be on a MAJOR sale before I buy them, but a girl can dream.

But on the other hand, I could settle for these gorgeous Miu Mius that are $200 less,  but in this case I think I may want to spend the extra for the Louies.  I can get something else Miu Miu ;)

*UPDATE: I should note that when I do these perfect basics posts they are more specified towards me and what I tend to wear. Your basics may be totally different than mine, and that's what is so great about fashion! :D P.S. Check out this article on "Classics" That Emily sent me ;)

Last week I posted about net-a-porter's Bag Guide, this week (well actually last week, but I already had my posts planned) they have released The Shoe Guide.  The guide features all the latest shoe trends and shows you whats hot for this season! A few of my favorite shoes from the feature are below. They also have a video where they ask fashionistas what shoes they would save in a fire, which you can view below. What shoes would you save? I have no idea what I would save...either my No.704b. booties, R2 wedges or Simply Vera wedges XD
