Chloe Green at Topshop


Being heir to the Arcadia fortune must be a bit like being a princess. So Chloe Green is one lucky lucky girl. Daughter of the mega-minted Sir Philip Green, CEO of the Arcadia brand, Chloe was bound to become famous in her own right sooner or later. And who can blame her?? I can't honestly say that if my dad owned Topshop I wouldn't want in on a bit of the action. Can you?

After a stint on Made in Chelsea and plenty of trips down the red carpet scattered in amongst nights out with Rihanna and La Moss, the "it girl" (are we still using that term? It seems a bit Paris Hilton circa 2002) has certainly been making a name for herself. And it seems that’s not all she's been making as today her line of shoes, ingeniously named CJG Shoes, launches in Topshop.

With prices ranging from £115 to £175 the shoes certainly aren't the cheapest out there. Plus I don't see the name having nearly as much of a draw as the Kate Moss range had back in the day. Yes Miss Green has been on TV but she's certainly no mega star! And, dare I say it, after having a browse of the collection earlier today, I can't help feeling that they're a bit cheap looking…

Channeling her famous surname she's given them all a signature green sole. Not the most glamorous of colours, but I can see what she's trying to do. However the green sole combined with sky high platforms, sequins, studding, straps, zips and cheap looking colour options just really isn't doing it for me….bizarrely actually as that list contains some of my favourite things in the world!

Anyway, have a look for yourself, what do you think of the range? Will you be splashing out on a pair of Chloe's shoes?

Casual midweek shoe porn

Happy Friday Eve folks, I hope you're all enjoying a cheeky wee four day week??

As Monday was Easter and therefore we were all off work and stuffing our faces with lots of lovely chocolate, I didn't really think there was much need for some shoe porn to cheer us up....although it never really goes wrong to be fair.

Midweek in a four day week however there's a definite need for some shiny new shoe delights to brighten our day. These little Kurt Geiger beauties did the trick for me in a post work online window shop sesh! I say window shop as, yes, the spending ban is still in place. I fear it may be there until I'm 80!



Ok so at £150 they're not the cheapest trainers I've ever owned, but just look at how studded and lovely they are. Generally speaking I'm not really good at the whole casual dressing thing, I feel much more at home in a dress and heels than I do in jeans and some cons. But I think this amazing Lumiere style bridges the gap somewhere between "casual and comfy" and "stylish and fierce"!

What do you think? They're probably wardrobe essentials really aren't they??
