How the Ego Mule won me Over

Ok, guys, it's time I confessed a little somethin' up in here. . . . I wasn't exactly that enthralled by the whole mule shoe hype, in fact, I'd go as far as to say that I really really didn't like this years must have shoes * fashionistas collectively gasp* I know I know, how could I right? It was just one trend I couldn't see myself getting on board with, how very un-fashion blogger of me right?

Then I did that thing where I profess my dislike for something [see sports luxe and culottes] and quickly after, I kind of fell in love with them. The more I saw mules, the more I wanted to get my hands on a pair, realising very quickly they would be just the kind of thing I'd want for summer. 

I particularly went all heart eyes for the cream pair the guys over at Ego have on offer, they're practically the queens of the mule with their extensive range, including a dupe pair of the infamous Gucci number but yano, nicer on the bank account. The thing that sold me the most was 1) I don't have any cream pairs of shoes and I kinda really wanted to change that and 2) they're covered in freaking pom poms for crying out loud. As well as having a love for novelty bags, it seems I have developed kind of a penchant for novelty shoes too. Srsly though, it was only a matter of time.

As well as debuting my new found love for mules, I also wanted to debut the fact that I had bought some more culottes, still black but this time in the crinkle variety. I know what you're thinking, WILD. At least they will be some sort of semblance of difference in my summer wear when I interchange these for my other pair, well kinda. Question: what makes a culotte? Like, do they have to be a certain length to gain culotte status? Or leg width? Are these just ''wide leg'' trousers? Answers on a postcard, or you know. . . . in the comments below before I get hysterical over culotte status.
