INSPIRATION SCRAPBOOK #1: GRACE KELLY

I sometimes forget that this blog should be a place for me to record little bits here and there that inspire me as I go along. I've decided to start this little section in order to document these things in order for this space to truly act as my personal pin board. 

We watched Grace of Monaco this weekend. Whilst the film itself wasn't fantastical, I loved the introduction to Grace Kelly and have loved reading more about the Princess and movie star and pouring over beautiful pictures like these above.

Let's all just take a moment to bask in the beauty that is Valentino.....

Ok - phew. I could stare at them all day.  

I have been eBaying like a demon for quite some time in order to make these little studded beauties mine. 

I always had my heart set on the classic black flats with nude (either patent or matte) but when I went to visit them my heart wasn't set aflutter. Very bad sign. 

It was only after seeing these burgundy ones on the beautiful Laura Fantacci that I set my cap at the same style in this wonderfully autumnal hue. (I also had the best experience with FarFetch - my pair came courtesy of a boutique in Vienna in two days flat). 

I cannot WAIT to wear them. An utterly classic shoe that I'll treasure for years to come.
