I never know whether to give a pair of shoes like this a try – the bright blue really shouldn’t go with the snakeskin, but it does, and I bet they look fabulous peeping out from under a pair of trousers or jeans. This is a one off pair from Adele Clarke that have been worn to photo shoots so have slight scuffing to the soles. If that doesn’t bother you, and you’re a size four, you can get this pair for the bargain price of £80, down from £395!

Sensible, modest - yet sleek and sexy. I'm quite taken by these Amalfi 'Corel' slingback pumps and I think they look fantastic in all of the available colors (a sleek black, a prim navy, a rich brown, and a deep red) but the red is quite my favorite. I've been looking for the perfect red heels that I can wear to work (woe, my workplace is extremely conservative!) without calling too much attention to my footwear and these are it! At the sale price of US$89.90, down from US$139.95, I simply cannot resist. Must...match...with...wrap...dress!

If you’re a fan of the Bottega Veneta velvet slingbacks we’ve featured previously then I have good news for you – they are in the Net a Porter sale for just £118, down from £295. Now, you can call me an old misery if you want but I have to question the wisdom of buying velvet shoes – won’t horrible things happen to them in the rain? If you still want them (maybe you’ll just wear them indoors), get in quick as they are selling out fast.

For me getting ready is the best part of going out. There’s the hot shower with wonderful toiletries, the glass of wine while doing my make-up, then twirling in front of the mirror in my beautiful dress. But the absolute best part is slipping on a pair of killer high heels, especially if they’re as beautiful and impractical as these from Pucci (currently US$290, down from US$580). The print is classic and the jewels are gorgeous, I just don’t think I’ll be able to walk in them. I hope someone’s ordered a taxi.

Jeffrey Campbell might have taken a few liberties in terms of shape when creating this shoe (it's the same as a Christian Louboutin look that became a bit of a classic this time last year) but by adding a bit of a twist in the nautical red and blue colour scheme, he's definitely revved the look up a bit. Not for the faint hearted, these babies can be picked up at ModCloth for $119.99. See Catwalk Queen for details on how you can make a 10% saving on that price.
If the Evans collection doesn't satisfy your bargain-priced Georgina Goodman cravings (or if your feet are too slim for the wide-fit styles) then put the 27th and 28th April on your diary. If you head down to the Georgina Goodman store in Mayfair* on those days, loads of pairs of slippers are being reduced by 75% to £39. That's a huge saving for a classic designer style (and they're not just for wearing indoors, either, plenty of celebs have been spotted wearing the out and about).
*Georgina Goodman, 12 - 14 Shepherd Street, Mayfair, London W1
