Oh poor you with your back pain, Avril. The fit flops look fab though! I swear by Boden Bretons. I have 4 or 5 I think and I love them all! Lynne x

WOW....I can't fault that super next day delivery deal Avril. I got the pewter which perhaps old ladyish but thought they would match in light/dark bottoms. Glad you mentioned the tightish strap issue and how it faded. I rather like them though expensive (did I mention I bought a pair of kicker o so comfy black pumps in tk this week? eek) but important to pick up when there etc! I am leaning towards the 'keepflop' decision. Wore my Breton today and agree as just so fresh and timeless. Hope you feeling a bit brighter today..As always your blog is a tonic x

How are the fit flops for width? I have very narrow feet and find the regular style too wide, is this style any narrower?

This is my kind of outfit Avril - stripes and jeans - you can't go wrong! I really like the fugly edge to those fit-flops - I dig fugly! And the hair is looking great - I guess you literally run your fingers through it in the morning and not much else! Hope the back pain improves for you! xx

Ellen, I've posted your question on my Facebook page and I've had tons of suggestions!! Check it out on www.facebook.com/schoolgatestyle. These girls definitely know their mascaras. Hope you find it all helpful! Ax

Hi Avril,
Loving the look but then I just love stripes myself!
Wondering if I could ask a big favour of you + your readers? I'm desperately trying to find a mascara that doesn't come off - waterproof preferably as it's my son's wedding next month and you can probably imagine what an emotional day that's going to be!
I've tried a few out already but even the waterproof ones leave a 'smudge' line under my eyebrow - I either look like I've got two eyebrows or that someone has given me a slightly black eye!
Surely there must be a good mascara out there that does not move..... and that's where I'm hoping you + your readers could help? I've only got just under 7wks to find one ..... after starting my search about 4mths ago!
Many thanks,
Ellen

Fitflops will help reduce the impact in the long run, can't understand why people don't like them, they are the ideal shoe for mums on the run! The breton is lovely too just off to buy one now!

I'm so glad that you are finally feeling somewhat better - and to be fair, those fit flops fit in beautifully to the fugly trend shoe of this summer. Your husband's lawn is a work of art by the way!!

Glad you're on the mend. It's been a heck of a long time now hasn't it. Yes I agree the FitFlops are funky and more than a nod to the sliders. A lovely comfy but stylish outfit x

I think you look pretty cool in your stripes Avril, great lawn stripes too. I really like the style of your fitflops, they work really well with your jeans, glad to hear things are getting better for you.
