"I love these Charlie rhinestone t-strap shoes! The only problem is they only ship to the US and there is no idea about price on their site…..can you suggest a UK alternative?" Helen

I’ve taken the basic elements of this shoe and I’ve found you two alternatives. They aren’t carbon copies, but they are available in the UK!

The first pair (left) I have for you is ‘Marilyn’ a rhinestone encrusted open sandal made from white duchesse silk, sizes 36-41, £179 from Benjamin Roberts at Girls of Elegance. On the right is ‘Sky’  an ivory satin peep toe that although missing those sparkly bits, if you’re a dab hand with a glue gun (or check out Shoemissy who can customise your shoes) they could be easily replaced - £46.95 by Paradox at Girls of Elegance.
