How to clean your sandals?

Sandals are summer staples, but easily build up grime, dirt, sweat & odours. Here are a few things to clean them up. Irrespective of their make, they can easily be fixed with a little effort and time.

1. Use a brush to remove grime and dirt

If you have got sandals covered with mud or dirt, simply clean them up with stiff brush to get rid of the chunks. Scrub them off with the brush to remove as much loose dirt as possible.

2. Water and baking soda

Mix equal parts of both and using an old toothbrush scrub the paste onto the footwear to get rid of dirt and odour. Rinse it off with normal water, then with the help of an old towel absorb access liquid from them.

3. Vinegar & water for leather sandals

Mix equal parts of distilled vinegar and water, then soak a sponge and use it to scrub the outer part of sandals. This will remove grime and dirt without harming the leather. Apply leather conditioner onto them once they get dry to keep their top shape.

4. Rubbing alcohol for foot beds

Soaking a cotton ball in rubbing alcohol, wipe off the foot beds of your sandals. Not only will this help in killing the germs but will also remove dirt & grim. Then clean the foot beds with a slightly wet cloth. Repeat this process once in two weeks to keep your sandals fresh and clean.


Regardless of the method you use to clean your sandals and slides you must dry them up in the open, away from direct sunlight or heat. Both light and heat can break down the material, so keep them on the shaded area allowing enough air circulation.

Why Sandals are better than shoes?

 

Sandals are better than shoes as they allow your feet to breathe and are comparatively light and comfortable. You need to worry about getting your feet hot with many of styles being open. Sandals have several health benefits too over shoes like they help correct the posture of your foot and promote good balance.  Besides they are inexpensive than shoes, that means you’ll have more spare cash for your summer wardrobe.

Animal Print Pumps: Spring Summer 2018’s Edit

This season, animal prints are once again ruling the fashion circuit although, let’s be honest, they’ve since moved a step up the holy fashion grail and become a timeless classic rather than fashion trend. 

Nevertheless, fashionistas continue to up their sartorial skills with go-to animal print, particularly when it comes to footwear. From leopard to Dalmatian to animal inspired applique, these wonderfully wild prints are adorning summer shoes from classic ballet pumps and ballerina flats to comfy loafers, light weight espadrilles and smart fold up shoes. Take a look at our edit below and our round up of the styles that we’re crushing on!

Cocorose London’s classic Harrow ballerinas make for the ultimate ballet pump. With a pony hair (cow) leather upper and almond shaped toe capped in patent black leather, these ballet flats are insanely comfortable due to their double cushioned insoles, padded Achilles heels and concealed wedge heel.

The Clapham flats in leopard print pony hair (cow) leather adopt a more loafer style silhouette, with a longer vamp and more pointed toe. One of Cocorose’s best-selling styles, these comfortable loafers can be dressed up for meetings or dressed down with jeans and a T for a cosy Sunday pub lunch.

The Carnaby loafers, part of Cocorose’s portable Travel collection of fold up shoes, are ideal for commuting or travelling. Folding into a matching leopard print travel purse, these smart foldable shoes take up little to no space and offer incredible comfort, style and function for busy, modern women on-the-go.

Keeping in line with comfort and style on-the-go, these casually chic and sleek Shoreditch slip-ons with white soles are ideal for busy, metropolitan women. With a hint of sports luxe appeal, these slip-ons work their way up the athleisure trend scale by marrying on-trend animal print with a laid back, urban edge, making them ideal for running errands around town.

The Clapham loafers in luxurious, silky soft Dalmatian print pony hair (cow) leather is on the cards for being this season’s ultimate, sell out style. The contemporary feel of the loafer shape coupled with the cool splash of animal print ensures these flats would work well with this season’s new denims and fine knits.

Spring That Summer Time

Christmas was only a month ago, but as January begins to draw to a close, we start to look forward, towards the forthcoming spring and summer time.

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and Easter will follow shortly after that.

Once the clocks go forward on March 29th, the nights will start pulling out and the days will be longer.

Evenings will be spent in beer gardens, down by the river and in the parks, watching the sun slowly go down, and the air will get slightly cooler meaning it is most definitely cardigan weather.

Boots, earmuffs, scarves and gloves will be packed away for the winter season far, far ahead, and out will come the hats, sunglasses and flats. And we think it’s fair to say we know a thing or two about flats. 

Flats are another term for the Ballet shoe, and also can be referred to as ballet pumps, ballet flats or dolly shoes. The original ballet shoe designed for ballet dancing come about in the 16th century and was made from soft leather, canvas or satin. The soles were thin and flexible which made it ideal for both women and men to dance in them.

Ballet pumps as they are more commonly known as today are derived from the original ballet shoe and grew rapidly in the 20th century thanks to their appeal of day and evening wear, along with the vast range of prints, textures and trends.

In association with The Royal Ballet, we have an exclusive capsule collection of our signature, foldable ballet pumps and travel purse in a unique presentation box.

The Royal Ballet Clara  

 

 

The Royal Ballet Aurora    

 

 

The Royal Ballet Alice

 

 

So, we think flats or ballet pumps are pretty special. Not only are they approved by The Royal Ballet, but they are also approved by you.

Foldable fold up ballet shoes have come a long way since we launched in 2007 and our collections just keep growing. As mentioned in the previous blog we have a new SS15 collection on its way very soon and we are very excited for you to see for yourselves what we have in store.

We hope you like it as much as we do, and we personally can’t wait for Spring to arrive.
