Jellies

A staple fashion item from my childhood wardrobe, amongst Princess dresses and dungarees has to be jelly shoes. I distinctly remember a little glittery, orange pair. Although there is a lack of glitter this time round, jelly shoes seem to be making a come back this summer for a slightly older audience. These JuJu jelly shoes that I love, are available from Urban Outfitters for an affordable £24. They come in an array of colours including yellow, purple, white and my two favourites pastel pink and black. I can imagine pairing these with white ankle socks and short denim dungarees as part of my summer wardrobe.

Ray Ban Classics

This week I inherited an old pair of Ray Bans. They were bought for a present for my Mum by my Dad, 20 odd years ago. I love the classic round shape of the sunglasses which are framed by a slim tortoise shell pattern. Still in their original case, the glasses have been cared for well for the past 20 years, without a single scratch in sight they're in tip top condition.

During my weekly online window shopping session I spotted something very familiar on the Urban Outfitters website. A pair of round, Ray Ban sunglasses, costing £120 (below). It seems that the style of the sunglasses that were handed down to me may be finding its way back in fashion. The main difference between the two pairs is the colour of the frame; the ones on the UO page were a simple gold tone, compared to my tortoise shell ones, which I prefer. I'm looking forward to the coming summer days when I can where my new hand me downs. 

Tropical Toes

I'm a sucker for anything bright and patterned coming across these on my daily internet window shop sent a smile across my face. These wedges would brighten up anyone's day or outfit and would be perfect in summer. I love the Hawaiian print and the parrot detail is adorable and they get me in the right mood for a holiday. For £75 it's a bit of a splurge for me at the moment, but if I start saving the pennies then I can snap up these beauties from Urban Outfitters.
