I must admit, I love flats for running around doing errands – or paired with a great pair of jeans & a camisole top for a casual night out. I’m even wearing ballet flats to get married in!

It won’t be long before we can pack away our winter bags and pull out something that is lighter in color and texture, and for some of my younger readers, I think that this should do quite nicely. The minute I saw it, my neice Jessica sprang to mind.
