The Competition Win - courtesy of AllSole - the Palladium Blanc Hi Palladium Boots in grey

I was lucky enough to find out earlier in the week that I'd won a brand new pair of gorgeous pale grey Palladium boots via the AllSole.com Facebook page. Be sure to give them a like if you are not already following them.



I think my favourite thing about Palladium Boots in general is the easy to wear utility styling, however they are also super soft and effortlessly stylish. Plus they are all on sale, making this a great time to grab a pair if you need an alternative to your ever trusty Converse boots or Vans.

Thanks AllSole - they are super comfy and fantastic! I shall definitely buy more. You made me a very happy shoe blogger this week.

(Free shoes are the BEST shoes)

SALE ALERT - Ugg Australia

I know a lot of what is on the UGG Australia sale is off season, however for me there is never a bad time to buy UGG boots, and also there are some gorgeous summer picks in there too, like the JACKILYN sandals above which come in three colours and are reduced to £70.



You can also pick up the stunning HEDY mules in three colours, reduced to £80. Plus if like me you spend much of your Winter curled up in cashmere and UGG boots, then there are bargains to be had on boots too.



I own a pair of these MINI BAILEY BUTTON boots, and I adore them. They are so cheerful when everyone else starts wearing black and grey!



I don't yet own a pair of the ANDRA WAX boots but these are on my wishlist, and reduced down from £170 to just £95.

Happy shopping! Which style if your favourite from the UGG Australia sale?

My Summer Style - everything you need to look and feel cool (you, be cool /sethgecko)

So an outfit post was in order. It's been a while (and if you don't get my title reference then please check this here).

This top is gorgeous and is an absolute steal from the AX Paris Sale. It can be yours for just £9.99. I'd add a bralet underneath like this one:


The leggings in the top picture are actually really cool for Autumn / Fall, but right now this is way too much to wear. I've been wearing a lot of shorts though.


These little lace shorts are just £9.99 too, and are versatile enough to wear with a variety of different things. Then on to footwear...
Finish the look off perfectly with a little bit of metallic with these gorgeous little silver jelly flip flops. There you have it, effortless cool summer style by moi. Enjoy!

With canvas and rubber lining to wick away sweat and keep your feet feeling cool and dry, the shoes also have a flexible sole for added comfort.

Perfectly Pretty In Pink (the sunshine edit) featuring HAVAIANAS WOMEN'S CRYSTAL GLAMOUR SWAROVSKI FLIP FLOPS in 'Rose'

It's been hot sticky and frankly pretty much baking this past week or two here in the UK which has inspired me to look around for some sunshine bargains to help keep cool. When I spotted these sparkling Havaianas on sale at just £17 (saving 51% off their original price) I had to grab a pair.

They won't be around for long at this price, so click through if you like them. As far as flip flops go, and I have a long history of issues with any shoes that go in between my toes, this is one of the only brands that I can wear. The other, in case you were wondering, is Roxy with the fabric tape tor posts.

But the gem detailing on these makes them far superior in terms of style. Here's the close up...



Crafted from soft rubber for the ultimate in comfort, the Crystal Poem flip flops from Havaianas boast matching thong straps to the front with the addition of a Swarovski crystal. With a slightly textured footbed for optimum grip, these slimline flip flops are a simple yet stylish option that have a touch of glamour.

Super cute and on sale, grab them while you can!
