Sale Watch: Dorothy Perkins' £7 jade toe-cap Mary-Jane pumps

dottyp_jadetoecapmaryjanepumps.jpgI realise that it is neither Mary Jane Monday or Bargain Tuesday, but I couldn't very well let Friday pass without mentioning these super-cheap pumps from Dorothy Perkins.

They are a lovely mix of jade green and black and a real bargain, of course. The black cap toe also adds a bit of interest, as does the Mary Jane strap. They were £20 and are now just £7 - get onto them!

Ooh, how very "Chanel"! These toe-cap Mary Janes from Dorothy Perkins would be perfect for a pretty/classic kind of look - and will make a nice change from all those gladiator sandals and platforms, too! They're only £20, have a pretty, blush coloured upper, and will instantly smarten up anything you wear them with. Go "Blair Waldorf" with white tights, pearls and a headband, or dress them down with jeans - up to you!

United Nude Mono Jane wedge shoes

united-nude-eva.jpgThese 'Mono Jane' wedges are classic Mary-Janes at heart, but they're not MJs as you've ever seen them before: they've been given the United Nude treatment - which means they come in wild colours, are sculpted from a single piece of lightweight plastic and have a futuristic, almost edible look and a bounce that will put a spring in your step even on wet winter mornings! The functional/girly style has just landed at ASOS, where you'll find it in four eye-popping colours, each at £74.

Pollini's Mary Jane platform sandals

polli2002210192_prod_medium.jpgRarely has a Mary Jane looked so appealing to me as these pretty little slingbacks by Pollini. To be fair, these are as un-typical of the Mary Jane shoe as it's possible to be, but I love the curve of the sides, the cute little miniature t-bar and the high heel, which makes them a lot more grown-up than most MJs. They're on the expensive side, at $585, but if you think they're worth it, you can pick up a pair at Shopbop.

Mustard lattice-cut Mary Janes from Plasticland

mustard-mjs.jpgPlasticland has been my not-so-secret obsession this week. They sell mostly retro-inspired cloths and accessories, and it was there that I found these pretty little Mary Jane courts, which have lattice-cut toes, to make them extra-special. They're only $35, but I love the colour and style, and think they'd work well for both summer or winter. Oh, and they ship to the UK, too - bonus!

Office tan and salmon leather Mary Janes

jiffy.jpgThis is quite literally a pair of 'Mary Janes with a twist' with the leather pulled into all kinds of interesting contortions that make for a cute and unusual shoe. It may seem unthinkable that we'll all be wearing shoes that are so open to the elements before too long, but give it another couple of months, and these will be the perfect match for your denim mini. £58 at Office

Mary Jane Monday: Navy Mary Janes by Vivienne Westwood

vivienne-westwood-mary-jane.jpgI'm a huge Vivienne Westwood fan, but even if I wasn't, I think these lovely Mary Janes would still appeal to me. Navy shoes can be hard to find, and too many of them end up looking matronly, but these retain the classic Mary Jane shape, but add a bit of sex appeal with the high heels and curved sides. There's also a concealed platform to give you a little extra height, and I think these would be a great pair of work shoes, making a nice change from black! They're £372 at Net-a-Porter.
