Everybody Wants To Be A Cat

I HAVE A MONDAY OFF! Hooray!


I'm excited because I have had three days off in a row: luxury! I might have nearly burned Kitten Towers to the ground yesterday morning (an accident I swear! Must get home and contents insurance...) but I have enjoyed being able to relax and potter about. I've made inroads into sorting out the last few things from our move into this house - only taken a year - but it's been good. 

Yesterday was such a bad day that I gave in and gave myself a pedicure to make me feel a bit better. I filled a big metal bowl with warm water and massaged my feet with some wonderful jojoba massage oil and then soaked it off/in in the water - my feet felt so smooth and soft afterwards! Then I took my nail polish off, clipped my nails, filed them, buffed them smooth and then repainted them with lilac varnish, one of my favourites. I have a bottle of crackle topcoat which I'd never used before and decided to have a play, and I rather like how it's come out. 



Pretty, isn't it? I might have to play more with these new effect topcoats and move on a little from my normal glitter. 

After all that comes moisturiser, of course, and I have started using Crabtree & Evelyn's Foot Remedy. I quite fancy giving Neal's Yard Pumice Foot Scrub a try too: I think the two products will leave my feet feeling amazing! After my nightly bath I applied loads more moisturiser and the CUTEST little socks! 



LOOOOOK! They're so freaking adorable. I also have similar pairs in pink and white! I love you, Primark, with your £1.50 amazingly adorable little cotton socks and lacy socks. They make my inner little girl squee with delight. 

As we still had lots of snow on the ground I decided to take a bit of a walk in the garden in it and take you all lots of photos.

The first step was nerve-wracking...



...it was a bit deeper than I thought!



My poor little toes were freezing, but I love how my skin looks in the snow. I love being pale and interesting!



And look...I made a heart! 



After all that it was time to go back inside and have a hot chocolate in the warm and put some extra-cozy socks on. Lush!

Now it's time for me to dash off and do some more housework (BOO) and wash the kitchen floor like Cinderella - it's a hard life!

Look out for another update later this week: it's payday soon and there are new shoes, socks and nail polishes out there with my name on them!

Love,

Welcome To The Week!

Good afternoon!


It's a glorious early spring day here at Kitten Towers and I've been able to play out in the garden for the first time this year - hooray! I have never had my very own garden to plant things in and nurture myself and I am very excited about it. Last autumn I planted lots of spring bulbs - snowdrops, crocuses, tulips and daffodils - and I am starting to see them poking their leaves above the ground and my very first snowdrops are flowering! So today I couldn't resist having a little barefoot stroll in the long grass before it gets a spring cut and I took some pictures for you to enjoy!


The cool grass felt really lovely on my soles and toes and I couldn't resist getting my feet all dirty in the mud - I like the squishy feeling between my toes!


See? Look at the mud on those toes...


...and on my soles! I could have stayed out for so much longer but it's still a little bit too chilly for getting really mucky in the garden. At least then I got to go inside and warm them up with a nice shower and a good scrub and moisturise to make them all soft and clean again. Roll on summer and more barefoot fun!



Love,

P.S: Do you like this photoset? There are more sole shots, toe close-ups and dirty heels from the set available for a teeny tiny fee (to keep me in nail polish and foot scrub!). If you would like to know more, email me on miss.kittens.feet@gmail.com xxx

It's Fright Night!

Happy Hallowe'en! 


I wasn't expecting to be updating tonight as I am normally busy on Wednesdays but it turns out that I have a bit of free time and so you get a bonus post - so blessed be on this Samhain or whatever you want to call it. 

I got some splendid bargain creepy pants today from Tesco's for the princely sum of £1! I was most impressed, but saddened that they didn't have any scary socks or hold ups to go with them - sad times! I can't really complain as yesterday I bought three new pairs of socks from Primark, including two knee high pairs and one pair of white lace ankle socks - watch this space for evidence of them! 

I spent much of the evening looking at shoes and boots online, and have found possibly the Holy Grail of shoes. 



Look at them. Aren't they glorious? Look a the shiny red goodness and the polka dot bias binding. They call me, precious, oh yes. Not that I need them, but when has that ever been an issue?

So, dear readers, what's your opinion of wedge heels? Do you think they're sexy? Do you prefer a stiletto, or bare feet and the shoes in the back of the cupboard? Send me your views!

I seem to have spent a lot of time on busses in the last week or so, and therefore it seemed only sensible to take you all some shots of my feet out and about. 


Sorry for the blurry cameraphone shot, but it's surprisingly difficult to take a photograph on a moving bus! I love how my tattoos look through the hold-ups, and the heart print on them is just so CUTE it almost hurts! 

That's your lot for tonight I'm afraid, I'm feeling pretty grotty with the beginnings of a cold and so my poor toes are wrapped up in some of my new socks and I am heading to bed. Night night!

Love,

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog!

My name is Kitten and I love my feet!




See how pretty they are?

I love shoes and pretty nail varnishes and I like to take good care of my feet.  When it's nice and warm I love to go outside barefoot and feel my toes in the grass; I like the feeling of the dew on my feet! But there's nothing better than a nice soak in the bath so I can scrub my soles and then pop on some creamy moisturiser and a pair of little white ankle socks so my feet are nice and soft!

I ADORE my shoes, as you can see!


My goal is to have a pair in every single colour! My all time favourite pair of shoes are these:


See how adorable they are? I love shoes with straps: Mary Janes or T-bar shoes are my favourites of all time, especially if they have platforms! 

My goal for this blog is to update almost every day with my socks, shoes and bare feet for you to enjoy: indoors, outdoors, in the bath getting clean and in the garden getting dirty! I hope you enjoy!

Love,
