DID you hear the news just announced that the world famous shoe designer Jimmy Choo has teamed up with the high street chain H&M?

If you are an avid reader of my blog you will have gathered by now that I'm not really a designer fashion girl. More a bargain hunter but nevertheless the story interested me.

WHEN I was seeing my personal trainer, he would often comment on how bad high heels are for me as he watched me change into my trainers. I listened, of course, but I have no intention of me giving them up. I'd rather cut off my right hand!

I'm Not Alone

The Tutankhamun exhibition at the O2 in London finishes on Saturday, August 30.

The Terracotta Army exhibition at the British Museum has now finished but you can always take a trip to China to see the real thing now the Olympics are almost over.

The London Eye is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the city.


EARLIER this year I went on a four-day trip to London with my family. I haven't been since I was 15 years old so as my son is now that age it seemed an appropriate time to go.

We had booked the Tutankhamun exhibition at the O2 and also the Terracotta Army at The British Museum but these weren't the only trips on the itinerary.

In fact it was a bit of a whistle-stop tour which wouldn't have been complete without a spot at a London shoe shop.

I'M off on my summer holiday soon and so I've got to start thinking what shoes to take.
Obviously, I can't take too many as there's no room in the suitcases, but one pair would never be enough for me.

It Must Be My Friendly Face

A pair of white sling-back heels similar to the one's I spotted.


I DON'T know what it is but whenever I go out to the shops people start talking to me.
It doesn't even matter what type of shop it is - supermarket, clothes shop, grocer's - customers always talk to me.

The Same But Different

ON the whole my shoe collection is very varied. It's fair to say I'm a high heel girl at heart but I do possess some flat shoes and even some of those toe thong types although these always seem to give me blisters!. But I confess the majority are heeled court, open-toe court and sling-backs.

I've Just Got To Have Them

Have you ever bought a pair of shoes which you just know are going to be totally impractical?
Well I have and not just one pair either. I have an amazing ability to forget how painful a pair of shoes can be and so it's not surprising that I have more than one pair of 'please don't make me walk' shoes.
There was an interesting article in The Independent this week about the latest killer heels fad which I refer to at the end of this entry.

No Pain No Gain

Teenagers - you either love them or hate them. But it pays to remember we were all one once.
One of my first pair of hot high heels were acquired when I moved from St Peter's Primary School in Formby to the very grown -up Formby High School.
I was in desperate need of a new pair of shoes and so my mum, who was obviously paying for them, carted me off to Southport Town Centre to find a 'sensible' pair. Her words not mine.

So How Did It All Begin?

By Jan True on Jun 27, 08 09:14 AM

I guess I've always liked shoes. But it didn't really become an obsession until the 1980s.
I remember a funny tale from high school, but I'll tell you about that next time.
