Calling all fans of The Wizard Of Oz - have we got the perfect accessory for you!

Never mind witches wands and brave lions, designer Dominic Wilcox has decided to use GPS (Global Positioning System) technology to create the perfect addition to your wardrobe.

Just like Dorothy's ruby slippers - when she clicked them together three times, they returned her safely home to Kansas - these new super shoes have an inbuilt compass and flashing arrows in the left shoe to guide the wearer, and the right show has a gauge to measure how far the walker still has to go!

British designer Dominic Wilcox states the “No Place Like Home GPS Shoes”are programmed to guide you back to your abode “no matter where you are in the world.”

Sadly, the technology is currently wired into a single pair of bespoke leather shoes and, as such, are just a concept. Still, we can dream :-)

Like most girls I LOVE shoes, any shoes, so imagine my excitement when I heard that all time celebrity favourite Christian Louboutin has created a Cinderella glass slipper!! Disneyplus Christian Louboutin, this really is the stuff dreams are made of!

The famous shoe designer's creations have been unveiled this summer, in celebration of Walt Disney's re-release of Cinderella on DVD and Blu-ray this autumn.

Sadly, these beauties are not available to buy and only 20 pairs have been lovingly crafted and so for now I will have to make do with our Cinderella Jewellery instead! :-)

My only concern would be the iconic flashy red soles clashing with Cinder's lovely blue ball gown but I think we can deal with it!!

Two weeks ago, eight of us TruffleShufflers took a day out from our desk jobs to take part in an Apprentice style "Director's Challenge" for the lovely one25 charity. The aim of the day was to work through a list of challenges in order to raise as much money as humanly possible in an eight hour day for the charity, which aims to support street sex workers in changing their lives for the better - by giving up this street work, finding new jobs, new homes and ridding themselves of addictions. One25 provides an outreach van which engages street workers at night on the streets of Bristol, providing advice, support and all the details they need to feel welcome at the charity's drop-in centre. At the drop in centre, the women are welcome to come for a cuppa, do their laundry, meet counsellors, doctors and addiction specialists - with the ultimate aim of giving them the best possible chance to step away from the streets into a safer, healthier life.

Our Director's Challenges were as follows:

1. Recruit as many people as we could to run the Bristol Half Marathon or perform a sponsored SkyDive in aid of the charity. Each of these people would have to raise a minimum of £200 for one25 and that amount would go down on our scorecards.

2. Sell as many cake cook books as we could for £5 each.

3. Gather donated prizes for one25 to sell at their charity auction in November.

4. Collect corporate donations to the charity, trying our hardest to secure £125 from each generous donor.

5. Persuade people to text smaller donations to a special text number setup for the day.
