Step Into Summer

05/06/2017featured, ravel shoes, ravel ss17, sandals, ss17 shoe trends, style, wedge sandals

 

Yesterday officially marked the start of British Summertime, and I feel like doing a very Elle Woods valedictorian speech “We did it!!!” because making it here is never easy. Sure, the winters here aren’t entirely arctic (ta, global warming) but they are miserable and summer time marks the beginning of long nights, beer gardens, rooftop cocktails, and summer dressing. Whilst every single year I always say that I prefer autumn/winter fashion, the truth is, all I ever wear in the colder months is jeans, a jumper, and a giant coat, whereas in summer, the only two things you really need to ask yourself when getting dressed is: do I need a jacket? and is it too windy to wear a floaty dress?
The ultimate accessory to all of your summer styles? Sandals, of course. And whilst the sandal scene is going strong in the flats department (embroidered slides and lace-up pom pom delights), I’m not always the biggest advocate of shoes sans heel. I’ve always loved heels for the sculpting lift they give your legs, and when you’re out in mini skirts in summer, toned legs feel as essential as a tan! But when you’re heading out and about for the day, heeled sandals can feel a little too much, so this is why I’ve fallen so badly for Ravel’s Rockwall sandals. There’s the subtlest, almost-concealed wedge heel which is hardly visible, to give the legs a little bit of lift and tone without having you toppling on the cobbles and grass after a few afternoon Pimms in the park. 

And yes, trust me, I know the reputation that ‘concealed’ wedge heels have – it conjures images of those awful concealed wedge trainers that mum’s seemed to love. Ick. But this wedge is so small and streamline it’s basically undetectable. Besides, all the focus and attention is on the tan, leopard pony skin, and silver straps! If that’s not the right side of the safari for you, Ravel also have them in zebra instead. From espadrille wedges to floral-embroidered slides, Ravel’s SS17 collection is the cherry on top of your sartorial summer cake. 
This post was created in collaboration with Ravel.

    You look fantastic in this outfit <3
    Summer clothes are my favourites, I just love flowy dresses, sandals, thin kimonos, shorts…etc But with my weight gain (due to thyroid disease), it's harder and harder to enjoy those during summer because it's easier to hide behind coats (but still fabulous coats, of course^^). I think without hidden wedges, slides tend to elongate the legs. 🙂

Valentine’s Day: do you do anything for it (even Valentine’s Day: do you do anything for it (even a card, an acknowledgement of it) or do you just live it like any other day? It’s not something that bothers me really but I said to Jimmy “it would be nice to get some flowers though” - he replied by asking me when actually is Valentine’s Day. Lol. So... bets are on. Who thinks I’ll be getting flowers on Valentine’s Day 😂?

Don’t worry I’ll just be sitting here patientl Don’t worry I’ll just be sitting here patiently waiting for summer so I can enjoy my walks in the park in these sandals 🥺 but seriously, my chanel sandals have been the best investments I’ve made. They’re about the only shoes I wear in spring summer. Until then, I guess I’ll be wearing them as slippers 🥴
