Irregular Choice 'Pixie Dust'

Remember I mentioned I missed out on the Pixie Dust platforms from Irregular Choice AW'13? Well I finally got my hands on them and they are even more super than I imagined!
I just adore them! They have this old-fashioned, folk-like feel, with the blanket stitch and applique. On the flip-side you have a huge platform and really modern shape, plus polka dots and lots of lovely bright colours. So it all meshes together into this wonderful creation. No wonder they called them Pixie Dust, they do seem rather magical.  I bought my usual size and they fit perfectly and I love the non-fiddly, 'real' buckle, so rare these days.  I really wanted another pair (or two) of Marble Moose, but knew I'd struggle to sneak one box past the family never mind three!    
I can see these working with tights or bare feet, just a pity I'm not getting out just now because I'm desperate to wear them. I was supposed to be meeting two friends and their babies on Friday, but had to cancel because I'm just not well enough. It sucks because I haven't felt this bad for years and it feels like a massive set-back. Anyway, I'm blogging myself back to health...is that a real medical thing? No, didn't think so. Staring at pretty shoes-ing myself back to health? Nah, I think I'll quit while I'm behind ; )

  1. They're so purty!!!! I'd love to wear these if they were lower! The other day I was in tk maxx and they had a pair if Irregular Choice flick flacks in a denimy blue sparkly. I was so excited but they were only in size 5.£34.99 which I thought was v good! Size 8 choice in that shop sucks!
    So sorry to hear you're so unwell. I will pray x

    1. Cool, I haven't seen any IC in TK Maxx for ages (although I haven't actually been there for ages either). The shoe section got super rubbish in my local, size 3's got everything decent! Thank you Kezzie that's very kind, hoping it's not a full relapse.

  2. I really love these, I have had them bookmarked for a little while now and think you may have convinced me to buy them. Did you get any of the cat heels? I don't like the cat on the heel as I think it looks freaky but i was close to tempted on the ones with the mice on the front. I realised I was just being silly becasue of the hype and refrained.

    1. They are really, really lovely. Yes, the peachy cat sandals with the little mice...thought the mice were a cute touch.

  4. Love these shoes, so so cute (I'm especially in love with those cats!). The color is lovely and those polka dots - I die. Also the buckle - why WHY do most shoes nowadays have a tiny annoying buckle instead of a normal one that is easy to use. I hate when it takes ages to find the tiny hole.

    Anyways hope you feel better!
