When it comes to evening footwear, there's something about an elegant pair of heels that trumps even the swankiest embellished flat every time; and when it comes to heels, Stuart Weitzman is a veritable expert! These 'Solitaire' peep-toes take a classic d'Orsay stiletto and slap a big-and-beautiful bow on the toe, making them almost (but not quite) over-the-top. Rounded off with some sizeable Swarovski bling, these are practically perfect in every way. Whether you're classic black or Barbie pink, you're sure to find these an excellent investment for your shoedrobe. They're $325 from Bloomingdales.

We've talked a bit already about Natalie Portman's new vegan shoe line for Te Casan, but last night was the official launch party for the line, and an opportunity to oggle some more shoes! Natalie herself turned up in a short, animal print dress worn with red patent Mary Janes from the collection, with matching red nail polish.
All shoes from the new line are 100% animal free, and are available to pre-order through TeCasan.com

I'm a big advocate for swapping ballet flats for plimsolls when I've got a long day on my feet ahead. For starters, they're softer on the soles and it also means that my prettier, more expensive flats last a lot longer! These slip-ons are rather sweet, with their diamante butterfly embellishment. Perfect for those of you who're feeling a little girly today - and beautifully paired with jeans for your complete casual Friday look - they're just £15 from Evans.

I'm going to be honest with you. Trainers aren't usually something that interest me, because experience has shown that it's hard to find a pair that isn't too chunky or heavy for day-to-day wear, compared with comfy Keds or pretty casual ballet flats. I'm going to set my prejudices aside, though, to say that I'd change my mind for these. In a feminine slim-line shape, these trainers would be ideal for trekking around beautiful cities on a European tour, or for long weekends in the countryside. Style and comfort combined; they're leather, they're from Guess by Marciano and will set you back $69.95 from Bakers.
