As versatile as a pair of black pumps

H&M strappy sandals

Hi guys, hope you are all well. These baby's are my pair of strappy sandals that I knew I just had to pick these up because of the price, the block (easy walking) heel and the velcro fastening (again easy).

These beauties are my latest fashion love because as I said in my previous post on strappy sandals they go with anything that you can make work. I have only yet paired them with my Easy A American Apparel Jeans from Asos and rolled them up to ankle height to show a bit of skin which gives the elongation effect on my legs and giving it more of elegant and feminine look.

+ a better way to show off this summers nail pots on your tippy toes - unlike peep toes !!

on a scale one 1 being comfortable and 10 being painful I would say the comfort of these shoes fall on a number 4.
The strap at the front of the shoe does tend to rub quite a bit on the toe where I have had to wear plasters which don't really stay put (annoying). I've lasted well in these heels for 9 hours the most and personally I'm usually in ankle wedged boots most days rather than flats.

H&M are also doing other colours in these shoes * metallic silver *

I definitely still want to invest in the Zara strappy sandals out the lot and even the new look ones maybe, but then I hate getting similar dupes because I think I'll fall in love with one specific item and forget about the other one (which has happened and I do a lot of that). Also to be honest with the weather being all wet and wild I feel as though I'd rather invest in something I can get use out of. But they are still ever so pretty to wear at any occasion :)

Sorry for the poor quality just thought I'd show how they looked on me,

What would you pair them with?

Summers Strappy Sandals

Strappy sandals this springs big thing
*I know I'm a bit late with the sandals* :( *sorry lovelies thought I'd still share my thoughts anyway :) *

Hi dolls, I was only aware of these when I saw them on a YouTube video and I was hooked at the way they give you such a slimming look especially on the legs even being paired with jeans. Having looked into them more I found that they pair well with most items of clothing such as, jeggings, jeans, skirts, dresses and the list goes on. The strappy sandals have a way of also making any outfit and any feet look feminine and ever so dainty. There is a wide range of strappy sandals some of which may have a single strap, others with two or a block heel rather than a thin heel. The barely strappy sandals is another way to show off some of the great spring nail colours being worn this season. Also with some of the strappy sandals out there are giving it that uniqueness with the two tone colours that mix and match perfectly or just the ones that give it that pop of colour.

Like I said there's a great range of strappy sandals but for me the basic black is a personal must have. Although I would like to play around with New Looks online exclusive limited colour block ankle strap sandals.
