A small-shoe summer of firsts
by LO
So, the summer is in full swing. How can one tell? Wimbledon has started, the World Cup is on and Goodwood Festival of Speed is nearly upon us and of course, finally its so hot here everyone is moaning! Perfect.
This year certainly seems to be a summer of firsts – the first time Italy and France have been knocked out in the first round of the World Cup (to my memory at least), the first time the Queen has been to Wimbledon in 33 years (or in my lifetime!) and the first time I have tickets to Goodwood!!
Now, if you are lucky enough to have tickets to Wimbledon, or Goodwood you will need your little feet suitably attired. With the Queen having been to Wimbledon this year, nothing short of amazing will do, and so, I suggest Music. These are the perfect Wimbledon small shoe, to go with your strawberries and cream, and of course a glass of perfectly chilled champagne. In pink or purple leather, the soft colours with the gold heel (and not too high) are the best petite shoe to be seen in on Centre Court – please just don’t distract Murray. He really must win this year!
For Goodwood on the other hand, one must remember one will be walking round on one’s little feet all day admiring the classic cars. So one does need 100% comfort and heels are not such a good idea as I can imagine lots of sinking in the grass taking place. And, one doesn’t want to be seen with muddy heels, does one? No. Exactly.
To avoid the sinking issues I suggest Marine – Girl to be the perfect petite sandals for Goodwood. Not only are they bang-on-trend (go Gok!), they are comfortable and needless to say, so cute! The leather sandals with striped button and anchor detail will see you sail through the day (sorry – I couldn’t help it, you know I like rhyme or pun from time to time) in total comfort and style!
Of course, you will have plenty of summer events to attend, you social bunnies, you. So how about a pair of Soul Sister’s? These great summer sandals come in a range of heel heights and colours. Gold, silver, orange and black in 7 or 9cm heel all of which means whatever your event, whichever heel height you need, chances are Soul Sister will be the perfect petite shoe for you.
