Don't Step on my Ruby+Ed Blue Suede Shoes!

I want you to know that I am in full-blown Elvis Presley mode, right down to humming ‘Blue suede shoes’ in my head very loudly.

These shoes are so cute!!!!
If you are an avid reader of my blog, you probably read my rant one/two weeks ago about an offer with Emerald Street and Ruby+Ed, and my disappointment that the picture used on their site and on the ES letter were quite different and where the heck where the neon laces!!!!
The  PR for Ruby+Ed saw my post and we had a brief chat where she explained a few things about the offer and where I might have gotten confused  . . . honestly I was just happy to hear that the neon laces did come with the shoes after all, so I made my order and my babies arrived at my doorstep.
For  £39.99 (exc. Shipping), I am now the proud owner of a pair of Handmade Holland Blue Lace up shoes and they are just the sweetest finish to any outfit!
I can’t wait to do a look surrounding these lace-ups but as suede is universally known for being highly ‘allergic’ to water, I think I’m going to wait til London is dry for a minimum of a week before these leave my house.

Would you consider rocking a pair of blue suede shoes??

Ruby & Ed Blue Suede Pumps . . . Something is WRONG!!!

I just hate it when I see a product that catches my attention at first glance; I’m talking stop in your tracks attention grabbing, and then when you see it in reality, it looks like a big, old, brown lump!!

I saw this beautiful pair of pastel blue suede pumps from Ruby+Ed in Emerald Street’s daily newsletter, which I immediately fell in love with.

Going on the Ruby+Ed website to purchase them; I was confronted by these . . .


Are these even the same freaking shoes??? They don’t even look remotely the same!!!

And why the hell is this wallflower version more expensive than the one shown on the Emerald Street newsletter??

Doesn’t this even classify as false advertising? If not, can I protest on the grounds on emotional distress

*Amendment - Just been informed (quite speedily might I add) by the Ruby+Ed's PR Team that there were a few things I might have missed or were not made clear on the Emerald Street Newsletter or their website. 
The pumps were priced ‘From £35’ (as they have a canvas and suede version of the shoe) and in the companies T&C, it states that you get a ribbon laces when you type in the code "NEON' in the checkout.
