Irregular Choices

-
Nothing makes us happier than quirky and unique style! From the traditional costumes worn by the Chinese State Circus to the more contemporary outfits our Lady Boys of Bangkok like to rock - if it's unique, colourful, pretty or frivolous - we love it! We couldn't resist the Irregular Choice website and it made for some serious eye candy, shining a lot of foot filled fun on to our dreary Monday morning. I'm sure you can agree that Irregular Choice shoes are certainly  uhm... Irregular! But so awesome! We need them on our feet - NOW!

Irregular Choice make a mockery of the norm when it comes to footwear by combining unique narratives with a quirky eye for design. From the extremely limited edition range by Dan Sullivan, which only contains a very limited number of  shoes available in each size for his designs, to the adorably kitsch styles which depict anything from sequins and glitter to flowers, fauna and even little birdies. Every time you look at them you see something new! They really are the gift that keeps on giving. We have to throw in the Panda design on the top right hand side of the collage too, I'm sure some of the ladies in the Chinese State Circus would love to wear these at their next performance without a doubt!

Speaking of the Chinese State Circus, we also took the opportunity to scout out our favourite Snake themed designs from the Irregular Choice Collections! Have you ever seen anything as lavish and beautiful as the Dan Sullivan Stealing Limelight shoes in the centre?! We highly doubt it - well, not for your feet anyway! The lady boys would certainly steal the show in these bad boys! Irregular Choice don't just treat our eyes to amazing footwear either. The bag and purse combination is to die for, making the slithery snake a cute and kawaii character for more practical uses too! Oh Irregular Choice -see you in our shoe rack, very soon!

A brief history of clowns to celebrate Andreea's birthday!

-

Hip hip hooray! It’s our crazy clown Andreea’s birthday! The lovable Andreea has been appearing in shows with Gandeys Circus for nearly a decade. Now Andreea is actually French – so perhaps we should say ‘bon anniversaire’! We’re proud to have Andreea as part of our current team in the big top at Butlin’s Skegness . While our other clowns – currently performing at Butlin’s Bognor Regis and Minehead – Bippo and Chico Rico are more traditional, Andreea opts to show off her sense of style with an offbeat modern look. We think her pink tutu / Converse / blazer combo is pretty iconic… especially paired with her blasting boombox! (she’s never been shy of making an entrance). Andreea likes interrupting the action with her silly routines. And you know something else… she is the UK’s only female clown! So you could say she’s a bit of an innovator when it comes to clowning around. With that in mind, let’s look at how much clowns have changed ov

Switswoo we say! If you missed the Lady Boys of Bangkok

Origins of the Chinese Circus

200 BC – 200 AD – Han Dynasty, Sichuan Province – Juggler with balls and knives – Carving, stone of the “Hundred Games.” [source: Chinese Acrobatics Through The Ages, p15] The origins of the Chinese circus are not entirely crystal clear. There are debates and differing opinions when it comes to the exact history behind the circus, which is not a surprise when you take into account how long it has been around! First records of the Chinese circus - including carvings and mural paintings - date back more than 2,000 years to the Warring States period (475–221 BC), with evidence of performances developing further during the Qin and Han Dynasties (221 BC - 230 AD). Although it is believed that the art may have actually started around 3,000 years ago! One theory is that the acts originated in imperial courts, with performers entertaining the houses in a manner similar to western court jesters. However, it is more likely that the circus was a folk art that was later adopted by
