I dedicate my first post to...

My love at first sight Juju jellies. These shoes were the ultimate travel back in time for me; the sound of them tapping against the floor as I walked made me feel like a four year old again in my pink glittery pair I used to adore. From the minute I saw them my heart skipped probably about 6 beats and they were added to the 173 items on my asos saved list and immediately bumped up to the top of the page ready to be purchased on my next pay day the following Friday. Whilst tottering around in them, my bargain pair of boohoo mom jeans and a scrunchy that was probably bought by my mother 10 years before I was even conceived, my dad told me I looked like I just stepped out of the 80s, he probably meant to take the piss but the comment made my day. I'd never felt so cool and confident in all my life, which sounds silly but it’s probably why I love them so much and worn them almost every day since my favourite delivery lady left them in the recycling bin for me to find when I woke up that morning.

 

To my surprise and delight these 80s classics have turned a full circle from being so uncool 12 months ago to the shoes everyone wants. The recent 'socks and sandals' trend has also followed along side, which believe me I NEVER saw coming! Juju offer so much more excitement than I've seen for a while and the fact I only discovered them around 3 months ago makes me feel so cheated. I can’t wait to get my hand on another pair of these magnificent shoes. Bright  pink, pale blue, glittery? It might have to be one of each; I've come to love them all.
