Think Pink!

Bella still life- low res

St Valentine has a lot to answer for girls, sending the hopeless romantics amongst us into a dither in February.  Wondering how many Valentine’s cards will pop through our letterbox, fingers tightly crossed for the perfect rhyme inside the perfect card, with perhaps a romantic meal for two and maybe even..a proposal!

 

Well a girl’s just got to be ready, whether she’s holding out for a bended-knee moment or just having a girlie night in with a chick flick and a bottle of fizz.

 

And no other colour says romance than pink, so here at Rachel Simpson Shoes we’ve picked a couple of styles Cupid himself would swoon over.  Meet our gorgeous friends Bella and Roxy.

 
Bella 116
Bella, in a blush satin with beautiful bow detailing and elegant slingback is perfect for a romantic tête à tête and what’s more she’s in our winter sale and you can save 30% off when you order online today!

 
Roxy 159 (cut-out)
For the foxy chick out on the town with her heart firmly fixed on fun and frivolity, she has to make friends with Roxy!  Dressed in hot pink leather, with a foxy stiletto heel, she’ll have the men weak at the knees and hot to trot!

 

Remember girls, love is in the air and it’s only a click away..x
