My favourite Spring/Summer Sandals so far…

As  a tall girl with slightly large, moderately wide feet (ok, so they’re huge), I find it super hard to find shoes – especially sandals – that fit.  I have already bought 3 pairs of sandals this season – despite it still being too cold for toes-out weather, and here are some more of my favourite sandals for Spring/Summer 15… Oh, and they’re all under £35!

1, Wide Fit Pint White Cork Heeled Sandals – £24.99 – New Look.  2, Suede Asymmetric Strap Sandals – £25 – M&S.  3, Strappy Block Heel Wide Fit Sandals with Insolia® – £29.50 – M&S.  4, Preview Wide Fit Faux Ponyskin Heeled Sandals – £34.99 – New Look via ASOS.  5, Wide Fit Cream Contrast Cork Wedge Sandals – £19.99 – New Look.  6, Hearbeat Heeled Sandals – £28 – Topshop – also available in black and tan.  7, Honey Wedge Sandals – £30 – Topshop.  8, Sporty Sandals – £25 – M&S.

Happy sandal shopping!

Darling it’s better down where it’s wetter… Under the Sea.

One of the top trends this season is sea life.  And I don’t mean you should go out and drape yourselves in seaweed and wear fish as clothes, but take inspiration from the world under the waves.  Here are a few of my favourite bits and bobs to help you channel (see what I did there) the seaside theme this spring and summer.

1. Wallet with Sequins – £29.99 – Zara.  2. Tinkersmith Fish Charm Necklace – £30.00 – Topshop.  3. Flounder Green Sea Horse Flat  – £35.00 – Miss Selfridge. 4. Double side split maxi skirt – £37.00 – Miss Selfridge.  5. Premium Sequin pelmet skirt – Currently no price available – Topshop.  6. Turquoise style ‘starfish’ & Pearl gold matte ring – £7.00 – Avalaya.  7. Premium multi sequin vest – £40.00 – Topshop.  8. Cream Sequin Mini Skirt – Available at £60.00 from River Island or £45.00 from ASOS– you can choose which one to purchase, but I think we both know which one it’ll be!  9. Sterling Silver Cubic Zirconia Starfish Earrings – £6.00 – Tesco.  10.  Nails in ‘Gone Fishing’ – £5.00 – Topshop.  11. Grey Sequin Vest – £28.00 – River Island.  12.

Life under the electric (blue) lights: My top 5 blue bargains

Other than orange, electric blue is the colour to be seen in this season, as well as being fresh and bright, it’s also vibrant without being too ‘out there’, so easy to mix with more of your wardrobe.  I love the bright electric blue jeans and shorts seen on many celebs at the moment, and also love the shoes! Make a statement with a simple dress and some bright blue shoes, like many celebs have done on the red carpet!

Elisha Cuthbert :: Blake Lively :: Jessica Alba :: Kim Kardashian :: Jessica Stroup

The stars love the look and now so can you, for less!  Here are my top 5 electric blue high street buys…

1. Smart City Shorts – £34.99 – River Island

I definitely think that electric blue looks best when next to black, so this little woven belt which comes with these adorable shorts is perfect.  I love the city shorts look, they look great with a simple white vest top tucked in, or with a white shirt for work.  Wear with some yummy black or tan ankle boots for a more sophisticated look.

2. Racer Back Maxi Dress – £17.99 – Missguided

I love the simplicity of this dress, with the interesting back.  It’s perfect for a day at the beach or a day shopping.  Wear with a black waist belt to make the blue really pop and add a little something extra to the look.

3. Pump It Up Suede Platform Court Shoe – £55.00 – ASOS

 

Heidi Klum

Just like Heidi Klum, these shoes will add extra p-zazz to a simple dress, the monochrome outfit is instantly re-vamped with these bright blue shoes and they look amazing.

Wear them like Heidi with a short dress and simple accessories (never match your accessories to your shoes with bright blue) or go for a simple white tee, black skinnies and then these shoes to jazz up the outfit.

4. Skinny Stretch Jeans – £35.99 – Zara

You cannot go wrong with a good pair of stretch jeans, and these ones incorporate the peg-trouser look, the colourblocking and electic blue trend all in one.  I love the cute turn ups at the bottom and the details on the pockets.  Please do not wear them with these shoes however – yuck!

5. Bikini – Top – £14.90, Bottoms – £9.90 – Mango

Kim Kardashian is a big fan on electric blue, get a bikini like hers from Mango.  This bikini is simple, but the colour is eye-catching and looks much brighter in the flesh, the photograph doesn’t really do it justice.  I love the idea of wearing it under a thin white summer dress with some tan gladiator-style sandals.
