Shoezone review – Haute Hippie festival style
I first became a fan of Shoezone when Joe was small. They sold the cutest t-bar canvas shoes that had a real retro feel and were a total bargain (2 pairs for £8 as I recall.) I loved them, and of course I had a look at the ladies selection, and found it to be full of really pretty sandals and flat pumps, all of which were really affordable. I was converted and now regularly buy shoes from the brand. I was recently offered the opportunity to review a pair of shoes, sandals or boots from their current lines.

This collection is full of beautiful pieces that could be your summer wardrobe, whether you are taking a vacation or a stay-cation. Delicate dresses, tiny denim shorts and black suede boots are the story of your festival…

So Glad and Very – White Stuff’s big sister shines this season!
I love ‘So Glad and Very’. For those unfamiliar with it, this is the sister collection to White Stuff. If White Stuff covers all areas of English style Eccentricity, from tomboyish jeans and plaids, to romantic ruffles and florals, then So Glad and Very addresses the areas of English Sophistication. I was recently sent the look book for the new season and was really impressed by the whole range, but also by the styling of the Look book. The collection had a sophisticated boho vibe, with silk, prints, scarves and florals to savour. The initial look through the collection bought to mind one of my favourite style Icons of the…
