[Bought] Clarks Leopard Print Loafers

I'm a huge fan of leopard print accessories, and posted a few months ago about my love for heels in the spotty-wonderful print.  I really didn't think a flat shoe could surpass a love for a heeled one, but AW12 is proving full of fashion surprises.  I have well and truly fallen for a slipper.  

On my daily pinterest travels (mild severe obsession) I picked up the above pictures on my leopard print board.  I kept them safe for cooler weather and dug them out for this post.  Leopard print loafers are everywhere.  For me the only question was where to find a pair without breaking the bank...

I was browsing through Red magazine (new found magazine love) and saw a brilliant loafer edit.  This was then followed by complete surprise as the pair I picked out from the line up were from Clarks.  Yes, Clarks - you read it correctly.  They are £39.99.  I went there on Saturday morning to fetch them - they were the only pair left in the Oxford Street store so if you want them I'd hurry up about it...

I wore them out on Saturday afternoon to meet friends for an 8 hour Wahaca food/mojito binge, neither of them believed me they were from Clarks until I showed them the stamp on the sole.  They really are brilliant - and very, very comfortable.  Buy them here if you love them as much as I do!

Animal prints are one of the dangerous things; too little and you've missed the boat, too much and you look like you belong on a street corner, and not in a getting-papped-by-Scott-Schuman way.  But in a nutshell, you are going to need a pair for this winter - they'll be fab for the British autumn too.  You can spice up a plain outfit with them at work, or be the last one standing on a night out in them with the girls.  Slippers are a winner!
