Oasis is having a mid-season sale, in other words - get your gorgeous butt down to your nearest outlet asap!
Among the bargains (hey, it is Bargain Tuesday after all) I managed to find these cute red 'Nora' T-bar Mary Janes. While there isn't anything particularly striking about this shoe, they would easily fall under the 'old reliable' section of your wardrobe. Plus, a little flash of red never did harm an outfit. The best bit is that they have been slashed in price from £60 down to a very reasonable £30. Check out the other items on sale now, before stocks run out.

I have some serious issues with "sock boots", and judging by our recent 'Yay or Nay' on the subject, a lot of you do, too. That hasn't stopped the designers churning them out, though, although, to be fair, that's not a sock but a "legwarmer" you can see attached to the top of this ASOS boot, and it is one of the least-offensive examples of this style I've seen. I'd still much prefer to have the flexibility of just wearing my own socks or legwarmers with them, of course, but that's just me. If you prefer to have your legwarmers ready-inserted, you can buy a pair of these for £30.

How do you add a feminine touch to a pair of menswear-inspired shoes? Easy! Just make them in bright pink patent, obviously! Well, I'm assuming that was the thinking here, anyway... The result is this rather cartoon-ish looking lace-up, which is exactly what Barbie would wear, if, of course, Barbie ever decided to wear a pair of flat lace-ups. That would be about as unlikely as me wearing them, but I know some of you love this style, and if you still love it in pink patent, now's your chance to buy it - these are £20 from ASOS.

I love gold shoes and I love patent, but together? Hmm, not so sure about that one. Topshop are, though, and they've made these gold patent 'Mezzo' flats, just to prove it. This is yet more proof that square toes are back in a big way, and while the combination of square toe and flat sole is a little much for my stiletto-loving sensibilities, if you're a fan, you'll be pleased to know these are also available in blue, and are available at Topshop for £25.

These are the kind of shoes that are best appreciated from above - which is nice, really, given that that's exactly how you'll be seeing them when you wear them! They're by Miss Selfridge, and are classic patent t-bar sandals, with the black and white colours helping them stand out. They'd look great worn with a pair of brightly coloured tights, and as luck would have it, there's no shortage of those around at the minute, is there?
These are £30 and are available here.

These Miss Selfridge boots definitely count as one of the nicer pair of over-the-knee boots I've seen so far this season. The thick heels balance out the high legs nicely, making the boots very easy to wear, and I really like the suede/patent mix, which gives them an expensive look.
As far as expense goes, though, £85 is a fairly reasonable price for a pair of over-the-knee boots, I think, especially when the suede is real. Wear with dresses or over the top of skinny jeans, a la Kate Moss....

Take it from the horse's mouth (hmm... I guess that means I'm a horse) thick, over-sized ankle straps is what you'll be wearing, wanting, needing very soon.
Luckily for you, Dorothy Perkins have the perfect thing with these purple (although the colour is hard to tell from the picture) patent peep-toes. I love the simple clean lines, which will go with everything in your wardrobe... well, almost. Pick them up today for £35.
