SIMMI SHOES REVIEW - US Buyer



I love shoes as much as the next girl, but I'll admit I am picky when it comes to where I buy them from. I’ve purchased shoes in the past from reputable retailers in the mall that practically fall apart after a few wears, and similarly, I’ve ordered shoes online that are so badly made that they leave your feet with aches and pains you didn't know were possible. In other words, shoe shopping is serious business in my eyes. When I am paying my hard earned money for a good I expect what is advertised to me as a consumer. Once again the photo of instagram had caught my eye with the latestest trending blinged out slides! Simmi Shoes is an online retailer based out of the UK with all the latest styles and fashions, affordable price tags (most pairs are under $40) and most importantly, great quality. With an array of boots, sandals, wedges and heels, you certainly are not left wanting on the simmi site!


I was lucky enough to snag the Sophia Black Diamante Sliders! They arrived within two weeks of ordering and were beautys right out of the box! The site does say they are "true to size" however I would like more room in them and feel as though they do run a little small or snug. Considering the low price tag (£20 = $25.51) they really are a steal! Perfect paired with a simple black dress, jumpsuit, athletic wear, or even faux leather and everyone including you would think they were worth a pretty penny, but would could blame you! These gorgeous slides come in 6 more colors making the decision to finally buy a pair rather difficult!


Until next time. - D💋

EGO Shoes Take 2 - @EGOOFFICIAL Review


If you haven't seen my first review of @EGOOfficial, it's a must read before you continue on with this review... find it HERE. Recently I found the company EGO, while perusing popular instagram accounts. After seeing the new perspex trend, I knew I HAD to have them! However after my first purchase I was reluctant. Not only did I have problems with shipping and customer service, but the shoes themselves are extremely hard to walk in. I wanted to give it another shot so I ordered a pair I thought would be easier to walk in. I chose the Tasha Perspex Clear Ankle Boot, can you say "Hello gorgeous!"


I placed my order the same way on the same day as my first purchase, to give a fair comparison. They were having a sale of 20% off that day so I got an even bigger discount than the normal new subscriber discount of 15% that pops up when you first enter the site. I would like to note, when dealing with customer service before they had used the excuse that my order was actually a pre-order, so I included this confirmation that shows the shoe I order IS available and in stock. I also added a screenshot of the estimated delivery date when I was checking out.


Ordered Friday, September 30th - TOTAL: £37.98 GBP / 46.77 USD

  • Shoes Alone - £39.99 GBP / $49.25 USD
  • Shipping - £5.99 GBP
  • Discount - -£8.00 GBP
  • Tax - £0.00 GBP

Shipping Notification (Your Order Is On Its Way - Literally the email said this.) - Wednesday, October 5th

Shipping Update (Not Long Now! We estimate your order to be delivered within 3 business days - Again this is what the email said.) - Friday, October 7th

Delivered - Friday, October 14th


All in all I would say I am much happier with my experience this go around, but still not too excited about the delivery times. Will I order another pair... probably (LOL). At least you know what to expect right? The price we pay for gorgeous shoes!

If you have ordered from this brand, please leave a comment and share your experience as well!

Until next time. - D💋

EGO Shoes - @EGOOFFICIAL Review


One benefit of being a millennial is that I am constantly "plugged in". I find myself, like many others, constantly looking for new trends and things to buy (it’s a problem, yes I am aware). Shoes are up there at the top of my list along with makeup. I recently found the company EGO Official, which I usually saw pop up across a popular Instagram account -> Aaliyah Jay. She was modeling the Ariana Perspex White Sandal With Glitter Heel and made them look like they were spun in heaven and dipped in diamonds! 

I HAD to have them! I headed over to the facebook page to do a bit a research and I couldn't take my eyes off the beautiful works of art! So I went ahead to their website and was greeted by a pop-up of 15% of my first purchase (they hooked me). Now I find myself scrolling through to their new Perspex section due to my need for new heels....cause its not like you can ever have enough! I thought they would go especially well with the outfits I don't seem to have any shoes for! So I quickly added them to my cart and checked out using PayPal, my go to. 

Ordered Friday, July 29th - TOTAL: £31.48 GBP / $42.60 USD
  • Shoes Alone - £29.99 GBP
  • Shipping - £5.99 GBP
  • Discount - -£4.50 GBP
  • Tax - £0.00 GBP
negatinegatiFor me this is where things got hairy.... I didn't expect my shoes to be shipped out over the weekend so I patiently waited through the next week for a shipping notification containing a tracking number to allow me to religiously stalk my package until it gets here....Saturday comes & goes and nothing.... so i send an email to the ego help desk the following Monday, August 8th. I waited two days with no response, so on Wednesday I commented on a post that had been posted the same day stating I had sent an email and gotten no reply I wanted to see if my order had shipped and I left the order number. I Received a reply from the page and they explained the shoe wasn't in stock and was actually "pre-ordered" but they ensured me it was being sent out the same day and I would receive an email when it shipped. Well 7 o'clock EST passes on Friday August 14th and I still have NOT received a shipping email! The next day I sent the Ego FB page a private message with screen shots of my other encounters with this awful customer service. I explain how I am not happy and this is ridiculous... To my pleasure they offered a shipping refund and again assured me that my item was being shipped out. That tamed my flame.... for the time being. I did receive my refund via PayPal the same day.

Shipping Refund - Monday, August 15th

I finally received an email on Wednesday and received my shoes from USPS the following Wednesday.

 Shipping Notification - Wednesday, August 17th

Delivered - Wednesday, August 24th


The box comes in a cute little sealed shopping bag. The shoes themselves are TO-DIE-FOR! Not to mention they are affordable compared to places like Charlotte Russe & Kohls, and great quality. 

This model shoe is not the easiest to walk in, not even for a seasoned heel veteran like myself. Despite my seemingly unsuccessful buying attempt I will be trying again! Of course I love the shoe so I thought "I'll get some that are easier to walk in...." so I made another purchase for these bad boys on Friday, September 30th. 


I wanted to give it another fair shot so I ordered it the same way on the same day as my first purchase, so we shall see if they can live up to the hype. View that post HERE.<- amp="" font="" go="" its="" ready="" to="" up="" when="">
