Holiday Time!

A few clicks of a mouse are all that may be standing between you and the holiday of your dreams. But once you’ve gotten the time off of work and settled on a destination, the question then becomes: How will you get there?

Cruise Along: Cruises can be the best deal in town. They’re typically all inclusive, and under what other circumstances can you enjoy dinner, dancing, live performances, and relaxation while you’re on your way to your destination?  If you’re looking for a good deal on cruises, check out Thomson’s current promotional deals. Until March 31, 2012 the company is offering 10% off cruises departing until April 2012.  

Fly Away: If the high seas aren’t your thing, you might consider taking to the skies. While it’s often not the most luxurious way to travel (unless you’ve got the cash to travel first class) you can at least get to your destination quickly.  Airlines like Air France and Virgin Atlantic regularly offer deals and discounts to popular holiday destinations.   

The Rails: What’s faster than a car and a lot easier on the environment? The train. While, yes, trains can be crowded during the high travel season, it’s still one of the fastest and most convenient ways to get from point A to point B.   

Happy Travels!

TOMS

With the rain and heat beating down on you this summer, it’s important to keep your feet happy. And if you can keep them stylish at the same time, then so much the better. TOMS seems to be the answer to both the function and fashion question with its collection of canvas and vegan shoes. (They even carry a bridal collection of white wedges for the bride who chooses comfort on her big day).   

Discounts on TOMS shoes are all over the Internet this season, so I’ve put together a list of retailers that can get you what you need…all with some very appealing discounts.

AllSole: In celebration of the launch of TOMS shoes at AllSole, the store is offering 20% off all TOMS purchases (code: TOMS20).

Office Shoes: TOMS are available starting at just £32.99 at Office Shoes, but for a limited time only. And with each pair you purchase from Office Shoes, or any other retailer, TOMS will give a pair of shoes to a child in need.

Schuh: Schuh offers free delivery on all orders until December 31. But in addition to TOMS shoes, Schuh also carries a variety of shoe brands for men and women, including Converse, Skechers, and Nike.

MyLabel: December 31 is your deadline to get free delivery and free returns on orders from TOMS from MyLabel.

Sarenza Footwear Fashions for Girls

Although your little angel would most likely prefer to wear her favorite pair of trainers all the time, they’re not always appropriate for birthday parties or visits to Granny’s house. Sarenza offers a wide assortment of shoes for little girls, as well as women, men, and boys, and until May 31 you can get free delivery and £10 off your first order over £60 (code: SARWLCM10). It’s the perfect excuse to round out your daughter’s shoe collection while pumping up your own as well.

Style: Every little girl needs a pair of loafers and slippers in her shoe closet. They’re casual enough to wear to school, but just dressy enough for weekend trips out with mummy.

Color: When it comes to finding shoes for your little girl, remember to keep it basic. Stick to neutral colors like white, black, and brown (and of course, you’ll have to throw in some pink) so she can get the most use out of her shoes before she outgrows them.

Comfort: While we grown-ups known how to sacrifice comfort for fashion, little girls won’t be privy to that sort of agony for years. When shopping for shoes for her still-growing feet, finding the right fit is key. Make sure that the shoes you choose for her have plenty of room in the toe and at the heel to avoid blisters.

Festival Fashions from Allsole

It’s that festival time of year again. Isle of Wight and the Leeds and Reading Festivals are just around the corner, and the only way to make it through the festivities is with the right kind of gear. AllSole can prepare you for the weekend of a lifetime with must-have gear from their Festival Shop, and until May 25 the company is offering free socks with Festival Shop purchases over £40. Check out festival season’s most-wanted must-haves:

Sun Supplies: While you’re engrossed in the music, it’s hard to think about anything other than the pleasure of the moment. But don’t forget that while the band is banging out stellar beats, that sun will be beating down on your skin. Protect yourself with sunglasses, hats, and as much SPF as the law allows.  

Shoe Approval: Flip-flop, wellies, or trainers may all be appropriate footwear depending on the weather that weekend. Allsole’s Festival Shop has a variety of styles for men and women, including looks from Ted Baker and Diesel.

Misc.: Also crucial to the experience are blankets, sleeping bags, toiletries, and anything else you can think of that will keep you comfortable during the festivities. And don’t forget to bring cash to buy anything you may have forgotten. See you at the festivals!
