Wanted to ask some opinions about how you guys deal with HTML text added into custom widgets textares.
From my side, I receive a lot of messages from users telling me they want to use all HTML tags inside widgets.
Are you using some custom options in admin to enable/disable using HTML in widgets textareas?
Are you using sanitization functions like
echo wp_kses( $content, array( 'strong' => array(), 'a' => array('href') ) ); and let them use some of the HTML tags?
Or you tell them is not safe to use HTML tags inside widgets.
Any other ideeas?

Some of the IMF's economic growth projections for Latin America and Caribbean countries through 2014 appear questionable, according to a new issue brief from the Center for Economic and Policy Research. The issue brief, "Troubled Assets: The IMF's Latest Projections for Economic Growth in the Western Hemisphere" by economist David Rosnick, finds that for some countries – most notably Venezuela and Argentina – the IMF's projections inexplicably portend a prolonged negative impact of the current world recession, even as countries harder-hit by the downturn, such as Mexico, recover. In other cases, such as Haiti, the IMF projects a surprisingly big growth spurt.
"Of course the IMF is upset with Venezuela and Argentina because of these governments' criticisms of the Fund. But that's no reason to publish implausible economic forecasts for these economies," said CEPR Co-Director and economist, Mark Weisbrot.

No Swan Song for Ratan Tata
You've got to hand it to Ratan Tata.
The industrialist, chairman of the Tata Group, frequently expresses his dim view of the media, accusing it of misquoting him and sensationalizing issues.
Yet, unlike almost any other chief executive in corporate India, he spent two hours answering on the record questions Thursday morning. He met with a few dozen editors and reporters at the Tata-owned Taj Mahal hotel ahead of the 2012 Auto Expo in New Delhi.
After being asked about some of his previous comments in the press about the state of the economy in India and the (lax) working habits of British managers in Tata's employ, he quipped that the lesson he had learned in his job "is I should keep my mouth shut."
But the level of openness he showed with the media — and the straightforwardness of his answers on issue like the Nano's lackadaisical launch — were a refreshing change in two ways. It was a refreshing change from American CEOs who frequently appear before the media but are schooled to within an inch of their lives by their handlers to say nothing of importance, let alone acknowledge a mistake. ("Counsel has advised me not to comment on that and we acknowledge no wrongdoing regardless of whatever it is you are talking about.") And a refreshing change from other Indian CEOs who simply don't appear before the media at all, with the occasional exception made for a two-minute soundbite on business news channels about something anondyne like whether the Reserve Bank of India is stifling economic growth through its campaign of interest-rate hikes. ("I can categorically say , 'Yes.' Thanks for having me on your show.")
That is a shame, especially considering that corporate disclosure in India of every stripe is exceptionally weak, major companies lie blatantly, and confidence in the corporate sector has been shaken by the 2G scam and other revelations of close, smelly links between businesses and politicians.
Mr. Tata should get credit for putting himself in the line of fire, as it were, and taking as many questions as reporters could throw at him.
Given that he is retiring at the end of the year, some of those questions inevitably centered around his plans for his remaining months and for his retirement.
On the latter, the answer was "I don't know," though he said he planned to remain on certain boards where he already is a member in a personal capacity, especially those that are overseas, given that he said he has always valued the "international perspective" the experience offers him.
On the former, don't expect a swan song. Mr. Tata has been intimately involved with the conceptualization and development of the Nano. So, perhaps not surprisingly, he was asked if there was one more product he had dreamed about that he would like to see materialize before he steps down.
The answer, in short, was no.
"If I am hit by a truck tomorrow — excuse the pun — and not here the day after," he said in an apparent reference to Tata Motors commercial vehicle division, "products that have to be launched will be launched. There is no such thing as the swan song launch of a product."
Just in case the assembled company didn't get it, he added: "There will not be any farewell products that will be launched because I am leaving."

Today is the day I make public our plan to change the way we eat and the way we live.
No announcement yet.
Primal Journal Holtslanders

Primal Journal Holtslanders
Things are starting to change at our house! We are still 2 weeks from "officially" changing our way of eating, but I have started to change things. Thanks to discovering mice in our kitchen (!), we have taken most things out of the kitchen to make sure we know where they've been and how they're getting in. I have taken the opportunity to start removing foods that we will no longer be eating. I have also taken out some utensils, bakeware and appliances that will no longer be needed. So, gone is the pasta, flour, crackers, cereal and other such things. Also, most of the pie plates, spring form pans, and cake pans have been taken for storage to the basement. The popcorn popper hasn't left yet, but will go shortly!
Also, yesterday I had to go shopping at the grocery store. Our freezer is full of farm-raised chicken, pork and beef, but we needed other ingredients with which to cook. So, I practiced just walking past all the packaged food: no cans of soup, no boxes of cereal or crackers (not even rice crackers). It's kind of freeing, actually, to just walk by most of the store! I have for years complained that people who are addicted to cigarettes or some such can quit cold turkey (I'm not very good at slowly weaning off something), but someone addicted to the wrong kinds of food can't just stop eating! So, a little while ago, after being gluten free for about 3 months, I realized that a part of my brain had just kind of made gluten foods non-existent. It's not so much a matter of self-discipline as a recurring decision to eradicate something, which is somehow different. So, deciding to eat without sugar, grains or dairy is just taking it one step further. There will be an adjustment for sure, but having the mindset of quitting sugar cold turkey is somehow easier for me to handle than just cutting back. Just like someone who is quitting smoking and wants to smoke but has the positive side of being freed from a kind of bondage, that is what I am looking for. Eliminating gluten did make a big dramatic change like it does for some people, but I have continued to read about dietary and health issues that have kept my resolve through the time of not really feeling different. So, as we progress to another step, I will continue to read and be encouraged to continue!

Princeton High School senior Tate Walquist is one of approximately 34,000 students in the nation named a Commended Student in this year's National Merit Scholarship Program.
Being a Commended Student means the student is among the top 5 percent of scorers among the 1.5 million students who entered the scholarship competition. Students are automatically entered when they take the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. Walquist did not score high enough to be a contender for a Merit Scholarship.
"It was a huge surprise to me," Walquist said about learning he had been named a Commended Student.
Walquist said he plans to attend college after graduating this year from PHS but is undecided about a school and career.
Walquist's extracurricular activities at PHS include being captain on the boys soccer and track teams and a member of the Chamber Singers.

JERRILYN McGREGORY, Professor, Ph.D. in Folklore and Folklife University of Pennsylvania, MPS in Africana Studies Cornell University, MA in English Purdue University, BA in English Illinois Wesleyan University. She specializes in African American folklore and folklife, African Diaspora Studies, and onomastics (the study of proper names).
She is the author of Wiregrass Country, a regional folklife study of the South. To supplement the general regional study, Downhome Gospel: African American Spiritual Activism in Wiregrass Country has been released by the University Press of Mississippi. It centers little known contemporary African American traditions such as the Twentieth of May (Emancipation Day); Sunday Morning Band (Burial societies), and sacred music from shape-note to contemporary gospel.
For her current research project, she has conducted fieldwork on Boxing Day in Jamaica, Bermuda, St. Croix, St. Kitts and the Bahamas. Tentatively entitled "One Grand Noise: Boxing Day in the African Diaspora," this study documents transnational cultural flows, moving beyond the festival arts. Furthermore, it locates retentions that situate the Florida Panhandle traditions within an array of observed cultural tropes found throughout the Circum-Caribbean Basin.

I would just like to share with everyone, for the record, that the cat thinks he looks awesome and has been strutting around the house striking poses in order for all of us to admire him.

Too funny! Rock on with your bad self, kittycat!ReplyDelete
OMG! I cannot stop laughing at this photo! Thank you for the pick-me-up!ReplyDelete
Even though I think this looks hilariously awesome, the questions begs to be asked: why?ReplyDelete
Oh, never mind. Just read it on facebook. If he hates haircuts, did you have to sedate him to do this? I cut my dog's hair last week and he was soooo wasted on Xanax. It's the only way to get him to hold still...and it's funny.ReplyDelete
Ok too funny!I hope your cat doesn't get a complex!ReplyDelete
As the only groomer in my area that will groom a cat anymore, I have to say kitty looks pretty good! No more shedding, fewer hairballs, and easier to keep clean!ReplyDelete
I believe you when you say he's been strutting his stuff all day and posing. There's a certain sauciness to his face in this photo. Good for him for rocking this daring look!ReplyDelete

The 27-year-old was part of the first group with Peter Senior and Oliver Fisher, and his opening two tee shots found their way into the hospitality area towards the right of the fairway.
The Scot eventually got his ball in play but then finished with a quadruple-bogey eight. Saltman did make birdies at the third and fourth holes but then dropped four shots in a row and picked up another two bogeys to finish the day eight-over-par on 79.
He admitted after his round he knew the opening day would be tough but insists he is happy to have broken 80.
"I knew it was going to be a battle from the start," said Saltman. "You can't miss it big here, you have to get it in play and I didn't do that today.
"After that it was keep going down or try to fight back. I am not pleased with the score but I am always pleased with the way I try and play; I'm never going to give up and I am happy to break 80."


text: Dear PCBSD fellows, Recently the volume icon in my taskbar appears broken (or missing) for no reason. As you can see in the attached snapshot, it just shows a question mark but it in fact is still functioning. I recall that this also happened some time early this year, though I cannot remember I fixed it by whether just restart or reinstall the system that time. This time the broken volume icon is still there even after restarting the system. The audio is still working; the volume control bar still pops up if click on the question mark and the volume is also controllable. So far it seems it's only the icon that is not right. Why is this, and how to fix this? My system is PCBSD 8.1 (i386). Any suggestion would be appreciated. Regards, Sam -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Spectrally selective TiAIN/AION tandem absorbers were deposited on copper and stainless steel substrates using a reactive DC/RF magnetron sputtering system. The compositions and thicknesses of the individual component layers were optimized to achieve high absorptance (alpha = 0.931-0.942) and low emittance (epsilon = 0.05-0.06) on copper substrate. The experimental spectroscopic ellipsometric data have been fitted with the theoretical models to derive the dispersion of the optical constants (n and k). In order to study the thermal stability of the tandem absorbers, they were subjected to heat treatment (in air and vacuum) for different durations and temperatures. The tandem absorber deposited on Cu substrates exhibited high solar selectivity (alpha/epsilon) of 0.946/0.07 even after heat treatment in air up to 600 degrees C for 2 h. At 625 degrees C, the solar selectivity decreased significantly on Cu substrates (e.g., alpha/epsilon = 0.924/ 0.30). The tandem absorber on Cu substrates was also stable in air up to 100h at 400 degrees C with a solar selectivity of 0.919/0.06. Studies on the accelerated aging tests indicated that the activation energy for the degradation of the tandem absorber is of the order of 100 kJ/mol

With its fireplaces and cozy rooms, Heska's Sugar Shack looks like the sort of place you want to stay in awhile.
In addition to sandwiches and sugary snacks, the Mentone cafe offers another treat - a record player and a large collection of records for patrons to sit and listen to as they eat their meal.
That is, Heska's did offer the record player, and live music and even free guitar lessons - up until about a month ago.
That was when Heska's was notified by BMI (Broadcast Music Inc.), a music licensing corporation, that the cafe's open-mike sessions and record-playing could be in violation of copyright laws.

Scientists Successful in Rejuvenating Cells in Elderly Patients

A research team has accomplished the rejuvenation of cells from elderly donors, which could prove to be beneficial for regenerative medicine
A research team from the Functional Genomics Institute has successfully
reprogrammed cells
from elderly donors in vitro to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) and to rejuvenated human embryonic stem cells (hESC).
Jean-Marc Lemaitre, study leader and Inserm researcher at the Functional Genomics Institute (Inserm, CNRS, and Université de Montpellier 1 and 2), and Inserm's AVENIR Genomic plasticity and aging team, have accomplished the rejuvenation of cells from elderly donors, which could prove to be beneficial for regenerative medicine.
Since 2007, research teams have been able to reprogram human adult cells into iPSCs, which have similar traits as hESCs. HESCs are the desired result because they are undifferentiated cells that can form various types of differentiated adult cells in the body. Using embryonic stem cells is out of the question due to
ethical problems with using stem cells from a human embryo
, so researchers have been using different avenues to achieve the same results.
Up until this point, the method of reprogramming human adult cells into iPSCs has been difficult in elderly patients due to senescence, which is the end stage of cellular aging. But Lemaitre and his team were able to surpass this issue. They used older cells taken from donors that were 74, 92, 94, 96 and up to 101-years-old.
Lemaitre and the team first multiplied fibroblasts from a 74-year-old patient. They acquired the senescence distinguished by the "end of cellular proliferation," and finished the in vitro cell reprogramming. When using the four conventional genetic factors typically used, which are OCT4, SOX2, C MYC, KLF4, this feat was not possible. But when adding NANOG and LIN28 to the cocktail, the senescent cells programmed into functional iPSCs and were able to obtain embryonic pluripotent stem cell-like traits once again. The cells were capable of self-renewal and didn't have any traces of aging.
The research team tested the cells' characteristics through the reverse process, where "rejuvenated" iPSCs were once again differentiated into adult cells and compared to the original cells given by the elderly donors. They found that signs of aging were completely gone and the iPSCs can produce functional cells.
The researchers say that this breakthough with iPSCs could lead to techniques to regenerate new tissues and repair failing organs for older patients.

Ron Rivera will return as coach of the Panthers next season following his team's strong finish.
Carolina Panthers spokesman Charlie Dayton said Rivera met with owner Jerry Richardson and was informed that he is going to return for a 3rd season. Rivera has 2 years on his current contract.
"He's going about normal preparations for next season," Dayton claimed.
Rivera's status with the Carolina Panthers had been up in the air pending a meeting with Richardson.
Richardson fired longtime General Manager Marty Hurney after a 1-5 start and informed Rivera at the time Carolina Panthers needed to be "trending upward" the rest of the season.
The Panthers went 6-4 from that point out, including 4 straight wins to close the season.
It's unclear at this point if Rivera, who went 13-19 in 2 seasons with Carolina, will be forced to make any changes to his staff. The Carolina finished this season 7-9 this season, good for 2nd place in the NFC South.
Dayton said neither Rivera nor Richardson would be commenting on the decision. Other members of the organization were asked not to comment on the decision either, per Richardson's request.
Nonetheless players were quick to applaud the decision.
"I'm very happy he's back," tight end Greg Olsen recounted. "Obviously the season wasn't what we were looking for, but I think the way we finished showed that we're heading in the right direction. Las Vegas odds
"The guys have a lot of faith in Coach Rivera and guys did not want to let him down. I think the way we finished, winning 4 straight, shows a lot about the direction we're headed and our faith in him as our coach moving forward. I'm happy that things worked out."
Rivera won a Super Bowl with the Chicago Bears in 1985 as a linebacker and broke into the coaching ranks right after his 9-year NFL career ended, first serving as an understudy to Dave Wannstedt in Chicago.
He quickly climbed the coaching ladder and was defensive coordinator in Chicago and San Diego before landing his first head coaching position in Carolina Panthers in 2011. That came after he was turned down for 8 other head coaching jobs.
Offensive lineman Geoff Hangartner was also thrilled with the news.
"That's great news," Hangartner said. "I'm thrilled about it. I think Ron has done a great job and I think he'll be the first to admit he's learned a lot since he was hired. He definitely has the respect of the men in the locker room because he's played the game and he treats guys the right way."
Richardson is expected to turn his attention to filling the General Manager position and interviews will come in the next week.
Richardson hired former N.Y Giants GM Ernie Accorsi to serve as a consultant for the General Manager search and the team has received authorization to interview 2 members of the N.Y Giants staff – college scouting director Marc Ross and senior pro personnel analyst Dave Gettleman.
Others potential candidates include Packers director of player personnel John Dorsey, Titans VP of player staff Lake Dawson and Vikings assistant General Manager George Paton.

Metal Nanoparticles and Self-Assembly into Electronic Nanostructures
Publication Date4/20/04
Read full article onlineFull Article
Nanotechnology is a catchword that evokes excitement in researchers and captures the imagination of laymen. The excitement in the research community stems from the fact that theoretically predicted variations in the physical properties of solid objects as their dimensions approach a few nanometers (1 nm = 10− 9 m)—viz. lowering of melting point, Coulomb charging, novel magnetic, optical phenomena, etc.—have been verified experimentally. This experimental verification has been possible because of rapid strides made over the last two decades, both in techniques for synthesis and in tools for characterization of individual nanoscale objects. These advances have also opened up a vast array of potential technological applications and have occurred just as the limits of photolithography-based solid-state technology are being reached. Coupled with the revolutionary impact of solid-state electronic devices on our lives, advances in synthesis, manipulation, and characterization of nanomaterials have made nanotechnology—and in particular nanoelectronics—a cynosure of public interest.
There are two alternative approaches for fabricating nanoelectronic devices: the "top–down" and the "bottom–up" approaches. The top–down approach is similar to current photolithographic techniques used to produce microelectronic devices. It consists of "chiseling" nanometer-scale features in bulk materials. Using such techniques as e-beam lithography and x-ray phase shift lithography, this approach can now produce nanoscale features (< 50 nm) and has the decided advantage of being compatible with current microelectronic processing methods and design concepts. However, this approach suffers from two important drawbacks: 1) processing costs rise exponentially as feature size decreases; and 2) the surfaces and interfaces produced by this approach exhibit atomic-scale imperfections, which critically degrade device performance as feature size approaches nanometer dimensions. The bottom–up approach consists of "building" the device or circuit by assembling it from preformed nanoscale "bricks." Bottom–up processing, involving the serial manipulation of nanoscale objects, is technologically impractical. However, it is often possible to induce nanoscale objects to assemble themselves into desired structures. It is such biologically inspired self-assembly which holds the greatest promise.
There are a number of interesting nanoelectronic building blocks, viz. metal nanocrystals and nanowires (both magnetic and nonmagnetic), semiconductor nanocrystals and nanowires, and carbon nanotubes. In this chapter, we focus solely on nonmagnetic metal nanocrystals. Two characteristics of metal nanoparticles are critical for assessing their usefulness in nanoelectronic applications: 1) the ease with which bare metal particles cold weld on contact to form hard aggregates; and 2) the tendency of metal particles to oxidize in an atmospheric environment especially in the presence of water molecules. The first characteristic means that the surface of a metal nanoparticle must be passivated by attachment of a monolayer of capping ligands or surfactant molecules before any attempt is made to assemble these particles into a uniform nanostructure. We will refer to such encapsulated particles as molecularly protected nanoparticles (MPNs). The second characteristic means that only noble metals such as Au and Ag will form nanoparticles that are not rapidly oxidized when exposed to an atmospheric environment. Linear alkanethiol molecules readily react in solution with both Au and Ag nanoparticles to form stable MPNs. These MPNs can be manipulated as stable physical species in a variety of organic solvents. The ability to manipulate Au and Ag MPNs in organic liquids, to synthesize macroscopic quantities of these particles with diameters in the 2–20 nm range, and to control the interparticle spacing in arrays of these particles by changing the length of the alkanethiol molecules coating the metal core make Au and Ag MPNs ideal building blocks for the self-assembly of nanoelectronic devices. To date, most studies of metal MPNs are of Au nanoparticles encapsulated by an alkanethiol monolayer.

He told the General Assembly that the organisation had reached the most decisive period since its formation in 1945 and the time was right for a hard look at fundamental policy issues.
He also announced plans to create a panel of eminent personalities to carry out a wide-ranging examination of the UN's role in addressing challenges to peace and security.
Mr Annan emphasised the importance of the decisions facing the assembly saying: "History is a harsh judge, it will not forgive us if we let this moment pass."
Major changes
He said pre-emptive attacks "could set precedents that
resulted in a proliferation of the unilateral and lawless
use of force, with or without credible justification".
"We must show that those concerns can, and will, be addressed effectively through collective action."
Council members may need to start discussing the terms under which collective action through a Council resolution might authorise a pre-emptive strike against a threat such as that posed by terrorist groups armed with weapons of mass destruction, Mr Annan said.
This would be a major departure from the UN Charter, which until now has sought to deal with potential threats through a policy of deterrence or containment, says the BBC's Greg Barrow at the UN.
Mr Annan said the new panel, which will report back before the next General Assembly session, would be set four tasks:
He said the panel's main priority would be peace and security but must also look at other global challenges.
Mr Annan also condemned the recent attacks on the UN headquarters in Baghdad - one in August which left around 22 people dead, and another on Monday which killed an Iraqi policeman.
He said the UN must take more effective measures to protect its staff, not only in Iraq but everywhere else in the world.

Hello all. I am looking to figure out how to use m0n0wall for this. I
had a linksys bridge that worked until it's radio stopped working.
What is going on is I have a wireless connection that I am trying to
make to my university. All of the APs are open and there is no WEP etc
on them. When you connect to the AP, it gives a 172.xx.xx.xx IP address
that is only good for getting to a VPN server. Then you have to
establish a VPN connection in order to get to the internet.
When I used the linksys bridge, I could associate, plug my laptop into
the ethernet port, and then establish a PPTP connection. It worked
I am trying to duplicate the same thing with a Soekris 4801 with a
netgear PCI card. If I assign the wireless, (in BSS mode) to the WAN
and set it to DHCP, it gets an IP, gateway and dns servers. My computer
can be plugged into the LAN port and can ping the external IP of the
monowall, but neither monowall or the laptop can ping the gateway.
I tried setting this to bridge the WAN to opt1, but it says that it can
only bridge in hostap mode.
So, what would I have to do to get this to work?

The advantage to this approach is that no additional adapters are required, and there is nothing to install or change at the endpoints.
A Connector Development Kit, provided with this offering, allows skilled developers to use WebSphere Cast Iron to add connectors to custom applications. With connectors built using the Connector Development Kit, users get the same development experience on IBM WebSphere Cast Iron Studio as with the built-in connectors. Cast Iron Studio is a downloadable development tool that can be used to design, test, and publish integration projects to a WebSphere Cast Iron Integration Appliance.
The WebSphere Cast Iron Cloud Integration portfolio includes hundreds of reusable template integration processes (TIPs) that are searchable in an online library. This online library contains templates for many of the most common cloud integration scenarios. These templates encode common connectivity, known mapping, as well as best practice integration workflows.
Templates provide a question-and-answer-based wizard that walks users through a common integration scenario, customizing as needed. Often, users simply complete the credentials, customize mappings, test, and deploy. Cast Iron clients and partners can create their own wizard-driven, reusable templates with the point-and-click TIP Development Kit and make them available to the entire WebSphere Cast Iron Cloud Integration user community.

Waiting To Bone Makes Relationships Better
In the category of crap we know but don't want to accept, a new study showed that the longer a new couple waits to have sex for the first time, the stronger their relationship is in the long run. The researchers found that couples who boned within one date or one month of dating had the worst relationship outcomes. Why? How? Well, obviously because sex made them wild, raving lunatics unable to make clear-headed decisions about the future of their relationship. I've never heard of such a thing and certainly never experienced that. The takeaway here? Assess communication styles, build trust, learn to handle adversity together before hopping in the sack and you will have a more stable, more satisfying relationship with a higher quality of sex. Blah, blah, blah. [Live Science]

Sarah Jessica Breaks From Brand Building For the School Run
Sarah Jessica Parker flashed a smile this morning as she took her son, James Wilkie, to school in NYC. She was looking well-rested despite a glitzy night out yesterday at the Costume Institute Gala. SJP stayed loyal to her new employer, Halston, by repping the brand with her pleated metallic gown from its Heritage line — she's also worn similar styles from the label on the set of Sex and the City 2 and even during Fashion Week. SJP's a smart cookie when it comes to her various business ventures, and we'll likely see lots more Halston from her in the run-up to her movie's release on May 27.

The ExternalParser.cc code seems to be making assumptions about the
Content-Type header that it shouldn't. Elsewhere, this header value
is compared using mystrncmp(), which is case insensitive and doesn't
go beyond the length of the string to which it's compared, so any
extra stuff is ignored. In ExternalParser's constructor, canParse(),
and elsewhere it does Dictionary lookups using contentType as a key,
without first trimming and lowercasing this key, so any uppercase letters
or extra information will cause the match to fail.

" Brand: Topshop / Type: Pumps "
I'm on my third pair of these little ballet pumps from Topshop, I'm on my third pair because I do find that they wear out very quickly, but I'm also on my third pair because I love them so much.
I first discovered these about 3 years ago, a work colleague had been wearing them for a little while and I'd been staring at them all week so decided to ask where she got them, she said Topshop and so off I went at the weekend to buy myself a pair!
I do find that these ballet pumps are slightly on the small side, I'm normally a size 5 in most shoes, and occasionally I can even get away with a 4. I actually have to buy these Topshop ballet pumps in a size 6 though, I think that the problem is that they are quite narrow, which is why I need to go up to a size 6 as I have little fat feet! Having said that though the size 6 doesn't look odd and is comfortable to wear. When I first get a new pair of these ballet pumps they are still very slightly on the tight side, However the material of the shoes is so super soft that it stretches and gives within a day or two normally or a few days at the most.
These are not actually leather they are a polyurethane material, however they do look like leather and when I started buying them I was shocked that they weren't as I'd have swore blind that they actually were leather. This is obviously reflected in the low price, my most recent pair was just £16.00, I do think that these have actually come down in price slightly as I'm convinced that I paid £18.00 for the pair before.
These are gorgeous little shoes and look exactly like a ballerinas ballet pumps complete with the little tie bow on the front. This is obviously helped by the colour, they are a gorgeous pinky beige colour - salmon Topshop describe it as. My previous pair were more of a beigey beige than a pinky beige, however I much prefer the pinky hued ones that I have now to the beige hued ones that I had previously, I think that the pinky beige goes much better with my skintone (very fair with tonnes of freckles) than the beigey beige.
These look gorgeous on and they don't make my feet look any bigger, something that concerned me with having to go for the size 6, in fact they make my feet look quite dainty. They look good with anything, I typically wear them with skinny jeans, leggings, shorts, maxi dresses, shorter dresses, skirts, basically they look good with most things and they are a very versatile little pair of shoes. I would say that they are more suited to being a summer shoe rather than a winter shoe due to the light colour, they start to look very grubby very quickly in the winter.
These are so comfortable, they are just like wearing a pair of slippers, the material is so super soft that it moulds to your feet, and there's no hard edges to rub or irritate your feet. I can wear these all day with no discomfort whatsoever, and it doesn't feel like I've had anything on my feet. They are the perfect little shoes for holidays and travelling at they squash flat and take up no space at all in your luggage, yet they still look perfect when you take them out to wear them, no matter how squashed they've been.
I do find that I wear through these ballet pumps very quickly though, the soles are just a very thin plastic sole, I'm very heavy footed and so I find that I wear the sole down very quickly and it starts to then wear the 'leather' away at the back of the shoe. I've had a year at the most out of these, and that's not wearing them everyday. Another negative about the sole is that because it is so thin you can feel some stones and cobbles through the sole. One last thing to mention is that these little ballet pumps don't mix well with the rain.
Although these don't last long I absolutely love the styling, and they are supremely comfortable (providing you aren't walking over uneven ground). I don't really mind that I only get a year out of these as they are so cheap to replace. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these, and I'm definitely going to continue to buy these myself.
Ballet pumps (also known as flats), in an unusual yellow tinted chocolatey brown/tan colour, described by topshop as 'camel'. They're also available in a lovely girly baby pink colour and also a creamy pink salmony colour. They're flat, the soles very thin and the pumps are very open, leaving most of the foot visible, they have a cute round toe making the feet look slightly neater/smaller, with a bow ontop. They're lovely looking and really cute/feminine, with the bow making them look that bit cuter and adding character. They look a bit like a lightweight pump style version of brogues and look nice with a summery dress or matched with simple jeans. They're versatile and can match with most outfits without looking out of place. When worn with jeans or casual clothing they make it look a bit more like you've put that extra bit of effort into the outfit. The material has a slight plastic feel to it but they don't look or smell plasticy/cheap.
They're nice and soft, easy to slip on and easy to walk in. They're very lightweight and are ideal for walking around in shopping etc.The only downside is when walking on pavements i can feel the pavement on my feet as the sole's not thick and isn't very supportive either. They've also gone slightly out of shape already (after 2 weeks of buying them!) as my feet are slightly on the wide side; none of my other pumps have done this though so i feel that the quality is slightly lacking on strength and support.
Price and Value:
£16 - cheap for topshop as most of there shoes are normally well over £20! Personally i feel they're decent value due to the comfort but they don't seem the type of shoe to last long and aren't ideal when walking across surfaces such as the beach or pebbled ground because of the thinness of the sole. The fact they're versatile and comfy make up for this though. I personally do like them but cheaper options are available that are the same/better quality.
In the winter I can get by with a couple of pairs of boots and the odd pair of shoes, however as soon as spring arrives I seem to go on a bit of crazy shoe buying spree and last year managed to buy about fifteen pairs of summer shoes! This spring has been no different and I've already added about five pairs of shoes to my spring / summer collection, including a pair of camel coloured pumps from Topshop which I bought about a month ago to take to Barcelona with.
The ballerina pumps are camel coloured (sort of a deep honey colour with a hint of light brown about them), have a round toe and a small camel coloured bow on the toe as well. The pumps are really quite plain and therefore are suitable for day or night wear really. The polyurethane material is really soft indeed, I wore these shoes without any socks or anything for a whole day (of intense walking around the sites of Barcelona) and didn't experience any pain whatsoever.
The only downside is the fact that the soles of these shoes are really thin, so thin in fact that I can't see them lasting more than this summer with average wear. The other problem with thin soles is that if you're walking on an uneven surface such as pebbles then you really do feel it through the soles and it can be quite uncomfortable really. If they had a slightly thicker sole they really would be the perfect pumps as they're just so comfortable apart from that.
The ballerina pumps are currently priced at £16 in Topshop which does seem to be a fairly standard price; obviously you can get much cheaper variations at places like Primark though. Due to the fact I don't think they'll last overly long I think they are probably slightly overpriced really. They're available in sizes 3 to 9 and are also available in a salmon colour and a pink colour as well at present on the Topshop website although they appear to be selling quick!
I would recommend these pumps if you're just looking for a basic, comfortable and versatile shoe for the summer but I would warn you that they probably won't last beyond the summer. I would also warn you that they're not really suitable for extensive walking or any sort of hiking due to the thinness of the soles and the softness of the material meaning they're not the most supportive of shoe! Overall they're getting an average three stars from me.
Thanks for reading.
