Converse by John Varvatos to discontinue womenswear line

After just three years, Converse by John Varvatos is shutting down its womenswear line, as of the 24th April.

The decision, however, will not affect its mens line. The brand said in a statement: "We have a strong relationship with John and are planning to continue both the Converse by John Varvatos footwear and men's apparel lines as part of our on-going commitment to the growth of Converse."

Kurt Geiger 'Marais' Fashionistas

I'm becoming slightly obsessed with Kurt Geiger's Fashionistas range. It's a bit like the time Magnum started making the Seven Deadly Sins version of their ice cream and I had to try them all. Anyway.

These ones are inspired by Paris, and unlike my opinion on the Bermondsey shoes, I love these. Really love them.

Elegant but show stopping, they're made from nubuck, with a highly polished wooden heel. The purple and grey compliment each other beautifully, and the Swarovski crystal studded ankle straps balance out the chunky platform. If you've fallen in love like me, they're £250 from Kurt Geiger.

Nine West glitter platform peep toes

If you're going out this weekend and you need something a bit special to add some pizazz to your outfit, may I recommend these shoes by Nine West?

If you had these shoes on, I doubt anyone would notice if you were wearing them with a potato sack. I suspect they have been modeled on a similar Louboutin pair, but at £69 they're much more affordable.
