First things first

My first blog post, ever. I wondered for a long time what my first post should be about. Something exciting, but not too ambitious. Something that makes people want to keep reading, but isn't a thousand words long. And than as if it was a message from above, my beloved Havaiana jandals broke on my way home, and I had the answer.

Finding the perfect pair of shoes can be hard, especially if you're like me and have big feet (I've always stared in envy of those lucky enough to be blessed with dainty, size 6 trotters who look like they've just stepped out of a Louboutin advert). However jandals are luckily not too strenuous, due to the open style, all that really matters is that your foot fits the sole and the strap holds it in place.
(To make matters worse, on a recent shopping trip in Sydney, I almost, ALMOST bought a new pair of Havaianas but decided that I didn't really need a new pair and instead opted for an altogether much more expensive ensemble of an Equipment shirt and J Brand skinnies.)

One great thing about kandals is that you can really have fun with colours and prints as they're only really worn to the beach or pool and in casual social situations (unless you're one of those people who were jandals out to dinner; that is unacceptable).

I have a small but crucial list of must haves:
Slim straps
No white or light colours (they mark way too easily)
Printed or colour-blocked (plain neutrals are boring)

I've pretty much stuck with Havaianas as they are super comfy and have a pretty big range to choose from, here are my findings:

Havaianas Slim Tribal in Golden Sun. - Gorgeous and would've snapped them up straight away, but they didn't have my size! http://havaianasnz.co.nz/specials/womens-specials/slim-tribal-golden-sun_scp_ptid=3615_ctid=859_.html








Havaianas Slim Morocco in Navy Blue - Cute print and love the pop of gold with the strap.

A little more subtle and I love the contrasting but complimenting colours.

Hmm I have a hard decision to make!
Which pair is your fav?
