20 Years of shoes

Dune, the shoe brand are turning 20 this month. They are British brand that are passionate about beautifully designed, stylish and unique shoes that excite and inspire season after season. Being focused on bring affordable luxury footwear to the high street, with the attention to detail, quality materials and high fashion designs has gained them sophisticated and loyal customers.

In celebration of their anniversary, the company are having a competition for customers to upload a picture of their favourite Dune memory for a chance to win a year's worth of Dune shoes. That would definitely make your dream shoe wardrobe come true.

They also had special treats at some stores for customer. In Aberdeen, my local Dune store, they had champagne and chocolate treats as well as pamper sessions through the day with free Autumn/Winter trend inspired nail art. What an exciting shopping day out?

High street fashion is more important now more than ever. It allows us all to access key trends from across the world. Dune's styles are stronger and more popular season after season. They create exciting designs that are timeless and remain popular. Using high quality allows their designs to be versatile and key pieces in their customers wardrobes.

They always seem to have something for everyone and for every occasion. From the killer heels to chic everyday ballerina flats, embellished sandals and the perfect courts. 

I see Dune as the shoe shop where you will find sparkles, classics and simple but elegant designs. Here are a selection of my favourites from this collection. All available on their website.

I am lucky enough I have my own bit of Dune's sparkle....

In love with Lanvin

Having to research shoes is a really tough job but I'm managing. This week, I came across these and instantly fell in love with them. They are gorgeous Lanvin satin embellished shoes with crystal soles.

 We're used to seeing red at the bottom of soles, but now the trend is crystals. We have reached that time of year when the glitter, crystals and sequins come out. Everyone is adding some sparkles to their outfits to brighten up these dark dull Winter days.

Many high street retailers like Dune are already getting their Autumn sparkles out. You could wait and wear them at Christmas, or just go mad and wear them now, I know I would. Having sparkles cover the whole shoe, shows that you're ready to party.

As for these Lanvin's, they offer another twist on the look by taking the crystals right up into the foot arch.
