Designer versus High Street in Women’s Large Size Shoes


The similarities between these Ghigo Platform Pump with Lace and Saura by Chie Mihara vintage looking pumps were too much to ignore. The style of these shoes does look experimental.
Both of the shoes are two toned (grey and taupe), both rounded toe, both suede, both with shoe lace (with the same amount of straps no less) they’re almost a dead ringer for each other! Except the Ghigo ones comes with heel height measuring 3.5 inch with exposed platform heel costing 160 euros (comes in sizes 31 to 34 and 42 to 46).
The Chie Mihara’s version which is on sale at Simply Soles comes with heel height measuring 2.5 inch. Saura by Chie Mihara costs $325 and is available in US Size 5 to 12 including half sizes. Both styles would work with skirts, wide leg trousers and everything in between.

Platform Wedge Sandals in Light Brown Leather

I personally feel that the studs on these sandals are a bit too much, but of course that’s my opinion. But if you reckon it’s a case of “the more the merrier!” you may just love these. They’re available from Ghigo, where they’ve been reduced from 95 euroto 47 euro which is very affordable and also they are definitely not boring, are they?
Very sad to inform you that you can only get them in Euro Size 42. Mere looking at the wedge heels, one can safely say that these sandals are on the funky side.
1980’s Pumps in Red Patent Leather
I personally could do without the white piping around the collar of these shoes, apart from the minor design glitch I would describe these one as office wear type of shoe. If you have been caught up with the 1980’s fashion revival, then you would equally like these red patent 1980’s pump. There has been 1980’s fashion inspiration throughout the summer season with the likes of leggings and graphic long t-shirts. Such attire would work with these red shoes. Better still you would pair them with floral dress in knee length.
The same style is also available in black colour, both of them are priced at 110 euros on sale at Ghigo.
Ghigo’s Lace Up Platform Pumps in Patent Leather
These lace up patent pump falls in the category of those shoes that doesn’t quite look good until they are on your feet…
From the front, it looks like there’s nothing much to the shoe, however from the side angle it looks stunning, all thanks to the thick high heels with the platform heel. In order to maximise the beauty of these shoes one would need to wear it with fall fashion such as a knee length skirt or even knitted dress with or without an opaque tight. They are going for 160 euros in sizes 31 to 45. The sole is made of leather and rubber sole with leather lining.
Oh yeah, one more thing, I would try swooping the cotton shoe lace with a satin lace in black or greyish black just to spice it up a bit. What do you think?

As the saying goes ‘first time for everything’ never heard of micegrey colour before, but these stunning ankle boots are described as that. Years back, one could only dream of fashionable shoes in large sizes but these days that very dream seems to be coming to pass all the time.
Take a good look at these platform ankle boots, a versatile footwear that is not a bad alternative to black coloured ankle boots. At 240 euros, they are on the expensive side, I like the fold over effect with the square toe shaped. Also comes with heel height at 9cm, rubber sole and 1 cm platform heel. They would look great with knitted dress, leggings or treggings. On sale at Ghigo.
