Who would have thunk it? Putting studded belts on a pair of Uggs. Certainly not I!
The famous Australian footwear company have recruited a few even more famous shoe designers to help makeover Uggs for charity. They have enlisted the skills of Manolo Blahnik, Carlos Falchi and Rebecca Minkoff to create a one-off customised Ugg boot in order to raise funds for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis.
The Uggs will be sold off via the Uggs Australia website as part of the seventh annual Art & Sole auction.
Now, I'm fully aware that buying cheap shoes can be a false economy. Saying that, a lot of the shoes I've bought from places like Primark have far outlasted some of the more expensive options from shops like Faith.
So, cheap shoes can be great. Wynsors.com are kindly proving my point with these gorgeous cage high heels for £15. Somehow, they've managed to combine studs, cage straps and a platform without looking ridiculously over the top.
They've got quite a few more bargains too, especially in the boots department.
Angeline Tournier is a fairly new addition to my shop browsing activities, but I'm really impressed with their girly twist on the fairly unglamorous trainer.
Pop them on your Christmas list. After all those Christmas dinners and chocolate treats, you'll need something pretty impressive to persuade you to hit the gym.
They've also got some pretty ballerina flats too, which you can see below.
Boohoo.com is by no means a new entry into the buzzy world on online retailing. Peaking from behind ASOS.com with it's cheap and cheerful range of clothing and accessories, the brand is slowly emerging as a strong contender for my shopping sprees.
Their shoe ranges in particular have significantly improved. Take these silver Ashleen Twist Front Zip Platforms (£35) There is something a little bit Kurt Geiger about them.
All of the pieces are named after the celebrities whose style they imitate. Guess which Beth the next ones are named after...
The message that Shoewawa readers love competitions is coming through loud and clear, so I thought I'd keep up the pace with a new one starting from today.
If you've like to win these fashionable slouchy work boots from Blue Inc, entering could not be easier: just reply to this post in the comments below, specifying your shoe size and email address. We'll be in touch next week to let you know if you've been lucky.
I recently wrote about Redfoot's range of women's fold up shoes, and their brand new range of men's leather fold up shoes.Well, they've now moved into the boots market, although this time it's a little different.
The Zippyboot is an ugg-style boot with four variable heights. You can wear the boot as it is, at full height as you can see on the right. The top section rolls down, so you can wear it with the sheepskin inner on the top, or unzip the top section completely. This then leaves you with the shorter boot, or an ankle boot if you turn down the top of this section.
X Factor contestant Rachel Adedeji was recently spotted popping out of the talent show house in these warm looking Jumbuck Studded Fringe Cherokee boots. These £120 boots feature the suede fringe and sheepskin inner that last season's boot had, with added stud detail to bring it up to date.
I've never been a big fan of Ugg boots, as they're a little too dull for me with their lack of detail, so these boots are right up my street. The do have some very similar versions of the Ugg boots but we'll gloss over those for the moment and concentrate on the other snug boots in the range.
