The girl from Ipanema goes walking.....

When she walks, she's like a samba  
That swings so cool and sways so gently  
That when she passes 
Each one she passes goes, ah.....

You may have realised this already, but I pretty much live in sandals / flip flops when it's hot, and my brand of choice is Ipanema 90% of the time! I thought it was about time I told you about them!

You may have seen Ipanemas before, Evans sold the straight-up flip flops for a while, (which I never got one with, personally I think they're a tad too heavy to wear without ankle straps!) and some of them are designed by the beautiful Gisele Bundchen. There are many reasons why I love Ipanema...

1. They're wide enough for my stupid shaped feet!
2. They look fabulous!
3. They are so comfortable.
4. The soles are thicker and firmer than regular flip flops so they last for ages without thinning (I've had my black and gold pair for about 4 years I think!)
5. They are super-soft Melflex plastic, so they're washable!
6. you can get lots of style that go round the ankle so they're safe for me to wear at work (or just in general life because I'm extremely clumsy!)
7. They are bargainous!

This is my favourite Ipanema style, the cross-over toe & double ankle strap. I have these in two colours and they are the most comfortable and awesome sandals!

They come in so many colours & patterns. I love mine! My other Ipanemas are styles that are no longer available, but looking at the website for this post (probably a mistake!) I have found some AMAZING new styles. here are my favourites..... I WANT THEM ALL!

 Ipanema Charm

 Ipanema Pharaoh

If you like the look of any of these I really recommend them! Visit the official Ipanema UK site here, with the sale prices they start at around £16-18!

THIS IS NOT A SPONSORED POST! I paid for all 5 pairs of Ipanema's I own, I just wanted to tell you how much I love this brand and their comfy and colourful sandals!
