Africa Alive

I would love to go on Safari in Africa but I don't think that is going to happen anytime soon, so I did the nest best thing and visited Africa Alive! I took my mum on the 'Plains of Africa' experience while we were there as a belated birthday present so she could get up close and personal to her favourite animal, the giraffes! I was surprised how friendly the giraffes were but I think it was mainly because they knew we had food for them! I also got to walk around with some lemurs, feed some goats, see a day old baby mongoose (anyone remember Rikki-Tikki-Tavi?), watch the meerkats play (they were one of my favourites, they make me think of Swift from Planet Earth Live) and see my friend do some of her education talks about some of the animals on her last day!! And another added bonus was it stayed ry all day!

Christian Louboutin VS Topshop VS Zara Studded Slippers

If adding spikes to your arm candy stack isn't enough for you then how about adding a pair of studded slippers into your wardrobe!

The Christian Louboutin Rollerball Loafers retail for $1195 at Saks.

If your budget doesn't stretch quite that far ( I know mine doesn't even come close) then Topshop have a much more purse friendly version! At just £28/$56 the VECTRA4 Canvas Studded Slippers are a steal and they now come in a whole rainbow of colours perfect for summer, I love the pink, blue and yellow!

If you're not completely sold on the spike trend then Zara has a pair of studded slippers, that are only studded around the front. They come in black and beige colour and retail for just £25.99/$49.90
Zara TRF Studded Slippers £25.99/$49.90


Which is your favourite pair? Christian Louboutin, Topshop or Zara??
