Today I'm a girl on a mission. I'm in the market for some holiday items for my trip to Hong Kong next week. My man doesn't know it yet, but he's in for a fun day of shopping with me! Cue evil villain laugh.
At the centre point of any summertime city break wardrobe there's one key thing, perhaps the most important of all, a great pair of flat sandals.
You need a pair you can rely on. A pair that will get you through a long day trekking the city streets, whilst still looking stylish of course! They also need to be trendy and smart enough to transition to the evening if there's no time for going back to your hotel. In my case, these sandals are also going to have to get me up 'The Peak', one of Hong Kong's most famous tourist attractions and also deal with an afternoon on the beach. So all in all I'm looking for one very versatile pair of sandals. Okay, maybe two...
I've been browsing the net for some inspiration and I've put together some of the best sandals for summer 2012!
1. Zara - $36 2. Nordstrom - $160 3. Tory Burch - $290 4. Topshop - $48 5. Marc by Marc Jacobs - $112 6. Forever21 - $15 7. Zara - $80 8. Steve Madden - $70 9. Oasis - $45 |
I think 1, 3 and 7 are the most suited to my needs. I also wouldn't mind getting a great white sun-dress and some new accessories - you can never have too many accessories can you!
I'm sure you all know how hard it is to find something when you actually know what you want and even more so, when you actually need it for a change, so wish me luck please! You might want to wish my man some luck too because chances are he's going to need it even more than me, poor guy!

ReplyDeleteI didn't find any! :'( I would've been happy with any of those above but sadly they never have my size here! I didn't get a white dress either. But I did get a few other fun things so it's not all bad!!

Yeah, the Topshop ones look great and quite a practical style too. I just don't know what I'd ever wear them with. I find neon a hard trend to do! If you get them I'd love to see how you'd style an outfit with them! Let me know if you do! :)
