Sarenza UK Ambassador Competition :)


*puts up hand*

My name is Milly, and I'm a shoe addict!
I've amassed well over 100 pairs over the last few years (working in retail clearly does not help)
and have regular clear outs of old worn styles to the charity shop.

I entered a Sarenza competition last year and made it to the final 15
So when I saw that Sarenza UK were looking for a new ambassador I jumped at the chance to enter.
You may be thinking 'she's got loads of shoes already'
which is probably true, (but we all know a girl can never have too many pairs)
and I'm pretty sure that qualifies me to be a brand ambassador,
I know what I like and what I'm looking for, good quality, real leather, uniquely designed & good service!
All of which you can find at Sarenza!

Anyway onto my chosen featured shoe, I present to you the
Cinadine boot by Feud @ Sarenza:


This is not just any boot this is a burgundy leather, lace up ankle boot.

They have not used any burgundy leather, they've used perfectly aged, burnished, textured leather.

*stops pretending I'm on an M&S advert*

But seriously, I love the colour, the brogue detailing, copper eyelets, worn in look
and they're practical as well as stylish *swoon*

I'd be like a small Victorian child in them,
they have that 'Oliver' styling too them,
It'll be hard to not go round saying
'ello guvna, fancy a shoe shine?!
(do they remind you of that too or is it just in my head)

At £136 they are a bit of an investment buy,
but they would be really easy to wear, with skinny jeans and a studded leather jacket 
with an oversized t-shirt underneath!

Lust After: Topshop Sale Wishlist


 Bonsoir ma petite chou-fleurs
I hope your having a lovely wintery weekend :)
I've seen so many things I'd love from topshop at the moment,
so heres a list of everything that I love,
that I will not buy until their sale starts, just in case it goes in!




Gorgeous black and white fair isle print cardigan with a faux fur collar.



Amazing Galaxy / Star print wondrous leggings,
Already sold out :(


I love this American flag onesie, but it's a pity they don't do it in bigger sizes
I love leopard print, topshop, Ashish and bumbags  so all of them in one is ace!

This backpack is also amazing, it's so 90's
Chelsea boots are great but you hardly every find any in navy, so these are fab
I also love them in this burgundy colour too, and the snake print is a bonus
I love my black version of these, but in nude with gold studs they look gorgeous.




This looks incredible but the reviews are not so good!?
I still think it's worth a try though.
These multicoloured glitter oxford shoes look awesome *drools*


Is there anything you're lusting after from Topshop??

New Arrival & What Milly Wore: Chanelesque & Monochrome



I have totally loved my outfit today,
I'm not usually one to toot my own horn but this outfit made me feel good

Quirky without being crazy, sophisticated without being stuffy, and sexy without being revealing or slutty!
Ive been channeling my inner Chanel Dahhrrling! I Likey!

I Wore:
Black puffy dress: H&M
(photo doesn't do it justice, its got a sticky outy tutu style bottom, with a vest style top)
Chanel Style Jacket: H&M, this season ( it actually couldn't be any more like classic Chanel if it tried)
White Patent colour block Bag: Claudia Canova from ASOS
Piratey leather boots: Topshop, bought used from EBay
Trusty Topshop Leggings,
And i was wearing pearls earlier, but they got taken off before i took my picture!

Also this week i have bought many pairs of shoes,
I know I don't need any.... but I cant be expected to leave a bargain when I find one... or five!

Coincidentally they have been mainly black and white





I bought these boots (above and below) yesterday from Office
Amazing leather ankle boots, very Alexa Chung,
Reduced from £80 to £15 each!
and only size 37s left.... just for me!




I Also bought a couple of pairs of brogues this week,
These black and white ones I ordered from the Office website
I love them, I can tell they will need breaking in though
£40 reduced from £60



And below are the white ones I told you about a few days ago
So so comfy
and only £10 from Topshop in the sale
They were the only pair, a bit big, but fine with socks and innersoles!





Last but not least there are these beauties,
Very Chanel,
Super soft leather
I ordered them at the same time as the black and white brogues
£15
Bargain
