Customisable Sandals
As you probably know already if you’re reading this – I handcraft each and every pair of Sandals each time I receive an order. The extra good news is I can customise the top strap on all my designs if needed. It seems that some girls have really high arches and therefore need a much longer top strap. Some have really thin feet and need a much shorter top strap. So whether you have thin feet, high arches, wide feet, chubby feet, swollen ankles or even shallow feet (yeah, that’s a thing for some of our Asian sisters) I can...
Fleur Sandals
I love releasing new sandal designs and I’m thrilled to announce that my newest design is called Fleur. The Fleur are in white leather with Swarovski crystals in 5 different pastel colours and the hardware is in gold. I can make the Fleur in either flats or with a cute little 2cm heel for that little bit of a lift. The Fleur goes with most summer colours and in particular pastel colours. Check out my photos below and if you want to order be quick because I’m confident they will sell-out quickly. Love, Cheryl xx...
Valentines Galentines Day Red Gift Idea
Whether you want to spoil yourself or a loved one on Valentine’s Day or Galentine’s Day this year, I suggest a pair of our red sandals is probably one of the most unique “red” gifts you’ll ever give or receive.

They’re in a flat leather sole with a beautiful shade of red on top in stunning suede with gold hardware. If you want some bling or something a bit more extravagant then I suggest my Amanda design. They’re...
Black Friday Sandal Sale
Being a small business that handmakes limited edition luxury Sandals, it’s quite rare that I run any sort of sale. However, this year as a special thank you to my loyal customers I’m offering a two-day Black Friday sale on my red, yellow and green designs. These were the hottest colours in Europe this Summer. So be quick, I have very limited batches of each design and the sale will end at midnight on Saturday 27 November. Lots of love, Cheryl xx
Buy Australian
There’s certainly been an increase in the push to “Buy Australian, “Shop Small” and “Shop Local” in the last few years. Particularly now since COVID-19 we need to support, not just small Australian businesses but all Australian businesses. We need to support them to help them survive and thrive. Whenever possible, I try my best to buy from small local producers or an Australian owned and operated company. Some of the small local businesses I try to support in my city of Perth, Western Australia are: Beach Street Design (coastal luxe fashion) Shiraz Cottesloe (cute shop stocking fashion, homewares, jewellery...
