Saint Tropez… I just had to have some

 

In Saint Tropez… everything is on show… the good, the great and the totally fabulous… It wasn’t just the glamorous super yachts that grabbed my attention yesterday… It was the shoes… and the legs… the fabulous legs… promenading on every little street… I tried to point and click on the whole scene before me but found myself continually focusing on the pavement. Nearly all the women were wearing heels and in particular, espadrille wedges.

I felt like something from another century in my perfectly appropriate ballet flats… too conservative, too stitched up… I loved the casual vibe in Saint Tropez… It’s all swimsuits, heels and flowing linen… comfort but with an edge of chic… Seriously… the girls looked fab… Not too glitzy, like they can sometimes… just gorgeous.

It felt quieter this year in Saint Tropez… maybe it was the Monday afternoon… or maybe things have backed up a little… and this explained the more peaceful and relaxed vibe… It was easy to roam the streets and browse the shops… not something I would normally say about Saint Tropez.

Yesterday was a preliminary look… an initial promenade… but I couldn’t leave without a pair of espadrille wedges… I won’t be walking around Saint Tropez  again without wearing mine.

Do you feel like some espadrille wedges too?

I bought some just like this … here… but loved the patent ones like this… here

and I am still thinking about the ones with the lace ups like these… here

If I were braver I would be walking around wearing these, in no time… here

I will let you know … but for now, I am off to the market to see what’s new… Have a great day and speak tomorrow…. xv
