If you know me well or have been reading my blog for a while, you will know that I love to invest in timeless and classic pieces when it comes to fashion. I'm also a big believer in treating yourself if you really want something (within reason)! I've been a fan of Valentino fashion for a few years now, having bought myself the Valentino Rockstud sunglasses which I absolutely love. But the Valentino Rockstud heels are a pair of shoes that I have had my eye on for a while now. I've tried them on in stores such as Harrods and Selfridges in different colours, and I instantly knew that I was in love with these shoes. They completely took my breath away, they look stunning, and I know they are a good investment for me as I will wear them with lots of different outfits. So I finally decided to purchase them as a treat for myself a few months ago! I wanted to wait a while before posting this, so that I had time to get used to wearing the shoes and write my honest thoughts.
Investing in iconic luxury
I know that the Valentino Rockstuds are a luxury pair of shoes, and I am all about investing in key luxury pieces. These shoes are so iconic and chic, and I love the pyramid stud embellishment all over the shoes, as this adds that classic Valentino design that will always be fashionable. Plus, they match my Valentino Rockstud sunglasses!
Investing in heels to wear with everything
There were quite a few colours to choose from, but I decided to go for the nude shade as I think this can be worn with more colours and different types of outfits. I plan on wearing these shoes with jeans and a shirt for a day time look, as well as at night with some of my best evening dresses. So you'll definitely be seeing more of these shoes on my blog styled with different outfits.
Investing in comfort
I definitely did my research before purchasing these heels. As well as looking stunning, I also need my shoes to be comfortable. There's nothing worse than blisters after a day of walking in your new shoes. I have seen other bloggers such as Victoria from InTheFrow and Lydia Elise Millen talk about how comfortable the Valentino Rockstuds are. At first I couldn't believe it, but after trying the shoes on, I started to understand what they meant. These heels are honestly the most comfortable heels I have ever worn. I recently wore them for an evening out where I was on my feet a lot, and they didn't hurt my feet at all and they were super comfortable. I'm so pleased that I've found a luxury shoe that not only looks great, but also feels great for my feet!
