Torches and Sunshine


So after all of the build-up, the anticipation and the preparation, it's finally arrived to much excitement...I'm talking about the sunshine of course! It seems we've been waiting weeks for the weather to echo those glorious 2 weeks in March. Then all of a sudden we end up with cloudless skies that have parts of Britain hotter than Sicily! We're not complaining, and the ladies we've had in store, stocking up on summer sandals certainly aren't.

There also the small matter of one Olympic Torch being carried right past our store window in Cheltenham. You can't fail to be swept along in the mood that's taken over the town. Whether you intend to watch the Olympics or not, there's a high chance that you'll be whipped into a frenzy with everyone else! We know that the streets outside are going to be lined with crowds and the girls in store are just as excited.

Low Heel Strippy Soft Sling
£99.95
Keith Scarrott Shoes
But on days like today when you'll be standing for a while in heat and direct sunshine (again, no complaints) you're going to need shoes that take the strain and provide as much comfort as possible. While being suitably summery of course.

These incredibly soft strippy sandals (right) are not only made of the softest calf leather but they also have a springy rubber sole that means you feel light on your feet all day. Incredibly popular, it's an annual favourite.

Flat Stone Trim Toe Post Sandal
£119.95
Keith Scarrott Shoes
Flat sandals are always a good bet, but when you're carrying shopping bags/cameras/children you don't want them to be falling off your feet, in a crowd you'll never find them again! These gladiator-inspired sandals (left) come in black and brown suede for a chic continental feel. Think promenading in St Tropez and you're just about there!

Slingback wedge
£99.95
Keith Scarrott Shoes
A wedge is always a great bet for wearing to standing events. Not only will it give your feet a break from wearing heels, they still give you the height. An added plus is the ability to see over other people's heads - get the camera ready! These beautiful navy wedges (right) stay snug and secure with the added slingback and team as well with jeans as with shorts.

Even if you're not watching the Olympic Torch run today, enjoy the sunshine and don't miss out on our wonderful summer sandals.

All That Glitters

Following hot on the heels of our blog on fabulous, bedazzled footwear ("Razzle Dazzle 'Em") we've had some incredible court shoes take us by storm. If you've been in store or passed our windows recently, you surely will have seen our incredible glitter courts.

Miu Miu
£555
In fact, the first delivery we took of these glittery wonders in taupe sold out in a mere 4 days. Now though, they are back and we have added spectacular black patent to our collection to try and keep up with demand.

Taupe Patent Glitter Court
£169.95
Keith Scarrott Shoes
Taking inspiration from the catwalks of Miu Miu, these designer-inspired shoes are completely unique. Created so that you can have that flash of designer style without being totally impractical; the block heels and classic court shape mean that you don't need to be Lady Gaga to wear them!

Available in taupe patent, the glitter adds a a splash of glamour to the usual neutral tone while still being just as easy to wear. Worn with simple jeans and a t-shirt they will be a shoe that makes you feel a million-dollars and inspire so many admiring remarks.


Black Patent Glitter Court
£169.95
Keith Scarrott Shoes
The stunning black patent trim on the glitter courts stunningly contrasts with the swathe of silver over the shoe. It really is a show-stopper and the perfect shoe for a little black dress. And with this style you'll be in wonderful comfort all evening.

However, as with so many of our shoes they are limited edition so get in store or online quick! Sizes go fast with such fantastic shoes. However, if we don't have your size, don't panic, just give us a call on 01242 253154 and we'll let you know when we have them back in. Be sure to tell us quickly - it will probably be just a week before they sell out again!

Pumps With Punch


Make the most of clashing colour!

Should you have visited us in-store or on-line at Keith Scarrott's in the last few weeks you may have been taken with our amazing array of colour-pop pumps. In incredible, summery hues there are ballerinas to suit every outfit, and even some to stand out from the crowd. If you love having fun with your wardrobe, you're in luck! With all of these fabulous shoes, your everyday ensemble can be jazzed up and given a new lease of life.

 These stunning interweave pumps (pictured right, £119.95) sold out so quickly we were able to send out an SOS to our European factories and get some more in for those who missed out the first time! The soft leather weave shifts and settles around the foot for total comfort and the springy sole means maximum comfort. They're selling out fast again though, so hurry!


These spectacular neon wonders (pictured below left, £89.95) really do stop people in their tracks. Wear with simple, slim jeans and a plain white t-shirt for maximum impact. Let the colour and spangle do all the talking and you'll be the envy of your friends.


 Now we're cheating as these stunning lace ups (pictured below, £119.95) aren't really pumps at all. But based on a ballerina shape, they provide the same light summer look with their own unique twist. In colour-pops or neutral tones, the rustic weave means the shoe is soft and breathable but practical whatever the weather.



As we know (our customers especially), the classic pump is a winner in any season you choose to wear them, so get these stunners now, before we sell out!

The Wedge - All Hail the Summer Saviour


Audrey Hepburn shows us how to
work the wedge style
There is a reason why the wedge has been a perennial fashion favourite since it's creation in the 1930s. With it's easy-to-wear style and height-boosting heel, has there ever been a year when the wedge hasn't been an essential part of all of our wardrobes? No, I didn't think so.

We drag them out for shopping, for school runs and barbecues to holidays. We've even seen a big upswing in wearing wedges for weddings and the races (well, it beats sinking into the grass and going barefoot in the evening!).

You know when you put on a pair of wedges that you will look dressy, but be safe in the knowledge that you will not be the girl falling off your heels in the name of fashion - we've all been there and it's not pretty. Despite being funny for everyone else.

So to help you through the myriad of summer boots and stilettos that seem to have sprung up this season, Keith Scarrott Shoes have gathered wedges for all occasions; from designer black to summery espadrilles. You're sure to find your perfect match with these lovely styles.

Most of them come in a variety of colours so have a browse around the Wedges on the Keith Scarrott Shoes Webshop for more options.
