Jelly Sandals, love them or hate them?

When I first saw these in Topshop I just had to have them! They reminded me of  the plastic sandals I wore when I was around four. Not only are these totally retro but they come in the most fun colours! The Brand Julu make these for Topshop, however looking online they do a far bigger variety of colours than Topshop stocks. In store I could only get coral or a deep, royal blue although online they do stock other colours such as mint green.As the summer months are looming I decided on getting the bright coral and I love them!

Comfort wise they're not the best. Don't get me wrong they're okay for a morning but not when you're walking to and fro around town. When wearing them they appear to have a flat base so they're not the best for supporting your feet. However I do feel that unlike the Jelly Sandals I remember, they are a lot more flexible and comfortable. They also can get very sweaty in the heat! I highly recommend doing a 'Rita Ora' and wearing them with a pair of frilly socks.

Over all I would say I love these shoes! Although slightly uncomfortable for walking long distances in, I think they have a cool, retro vibe. Some may hate them but its a definite thumbs up from me! Love Love Love!

Check them out on Ebay or at Topshop :http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CatalogNavigationSearchResultCmd?langId=-1&storeId=12556&catalogId=33057&beginIndex=1&viewAllFlag=false&pageSize=20&searchTermScope=3&searchTermOperator=LIKE&searchType=ALL&sort_field=Relevance&searchTerm=jelly+sandals&x=-1135&y=-41
