My Kind of Sweet Shop...

Published on Tuesday 15th May 2007

My friends and family think I'm extremely fussy and impossible to buy for. I however beg to differ. In fact I think I'm pretty easy to please. You just need to know my taste and have a healthy bank balance to match!

If you do want a guaranteed smile when I rip open the paper then visit French Sole.com. Just like children see pick and mix sweeties and get all excited, I however, having slightly more expensive taste, like to think of French Sole as my very own little sweet shop because the most delicious colours, designs and divine feminine shapes make me want to eat them all up and buy the lot!!!

With this in mind, it seemed appropriate to mention that I accidentally stumbled onto the site again this weekend and somehow found myself yet again entering my credit card details at checkout.

My beautiful pirouette gold crocodile skin ballet shoes didn't fail to delight when they arrived this morning in their gorgeous little purple box... What better way to start the week!

Now for those of you that my share passion for pumps and ballet shoes, I seriously recommend you take a sneaky peak at French Sole.

My favourites are the Henrietta, the Harriet and the Pirouette styles. They come in a variety of colours and patterns, and they show a bit of toe cleavage, which if you ask me is the epitome of the perfect ballet pump.

By the way if you are treating yourself or pointing a loved one in the direction of French Sole, they do come up quite small, so I'd suggest you go for one size bigger than you'd usually wear.
