I’ll admit, there comes a point when you realise comfort really does come above all else. That’s exactly why Next’s new broderie Mary Janes caught my eye: they’re chic, summery and genuinely comfortable enough to wear all day. Thankfully, gone are the days when you need to sacrifice style, or rely solely on trainers.
Forever Comfort® Broderie Mary Jane Flats
It’s no secret that flat Mary Janes are my shoe of choice, and I have an impressive collection of the style in my wardrobe. Whether they’re a sneaker hybrid or decorated with a playful print, they get me through the day looking polished, and they’re almost guaranteed to earn a compliment too.
Broderie has already worked its way into half of my summer wardrobe, from breezy blouses to pretty dresses, so it only feels natural for it to embellish my shoes too. Next has updated the classic Mary Jane flat with intricate cut-out floral detailing that’s not only stylish, but incredibly breathable for summer too.
Part of Next’s Forever Comfort range, they’re a guaranteed winner. Memory foam keeps your heels cushioned, flexible soles move comfortably with your feet, and the triple layer padding feels like absolute bliss with every step.
The flats come in three eye-catching, summer ready shades, and choosing just one feels almost impossible. If you prefer to keep things classic, the ‘bone’ white feels fresh and pairs perfectly with a summer tan. For a pop of colour, there’s a powdery baby blue that’s made for Mediterranean holidays, alongside a pretty coral pink that’s guaranteed to brighten up any outfit.
The beauty of a Mary Jane is that it works for almost any occasion. Pair them with polished linen trousers and a waistcoat top for the office, style them with a floaty tiered dress on holiday, or wear them with a simple tank top and breezy linen skirt for sunny day-to-day errands.
Slip on and you’re ready to go.
