Over the past few weeks, we've had glimpses of sandal weather , and with more sunshine predicted, it's the perfect time to indulge in a new pair - or even two. Whether you're after something for lounging by the pool on your holiday, or to add a touch of sophistication to your summer outfits, our beauty and fashion writer, Bethan Shufflebotham, discovered the ideal high street pair that you'll be wearing all season. While browsing her local River Island, she stumbled upon these stunning Black Leather Flat Sandals, which were truly unique.
Their flat design and cut-out details reminded her slightly of the famous Hermes Oran sandal, priced at £610, but they featured an exquisite stretch bracelet gold strap detail that really distinguished them from other similar styles, both luxury and high street. Our fashion expert thinks they're even better than the Hermes ones. Priced at £30, they're considerably less expensive than the designer version, and you could be excused for assuming they're not genuine leather - but you'd be mistaken.
