LK Bennett Marlene Sandals from Zalando

The end of the summer sales are hotting up so it's definitely time to take advantage of those bargains around the web. Zalando are in the ladt few days of sale and have a huge range of items - shoes, clothes, accessories and sportswear for men, women and children - and lots of designer brands.

I have found this gorgeous pair of LK Bennett heeled sandals, which are perfect for those warmer evenings which are surely to come, despite the current changeable weather.  They come in stripey black (reduced from £175 to £125) or red (reduced from £175 to £140).

I see them being worn with a classic, box pleat, A-line skirt for daytime or evening elegance and a simple blouse or silk t-shirt.  Add a cropped cardi to keep warm whilst sipping cocktails outside!

It's worth noting as well the current sale, until 31st Sepember 2014, customers can ger 5% all items (excluding sale) with the code ZAAUGSEP5 on orders over £50 at Zalando.

Fantastic Footwear: LK Bennett Nina Peep Toe heels from Zalando

Zalando are currently running their designer sale, with reductions on a huge range of designer women's and men's clothing, shoes and accessories. There's all sorts of labels in the sale such as Michael Kors, Orla Kiely, Missoni and Sass & Bide and items are up to 70% off.

I love these LK Bennett peep toe heels, which are reduced from £195 to £100 and available in sizes 4 to 9. The unique floral pattern looks hand-painted and it reminds me of beautiful Chinese blue and white porcelain.    I'd wear them out to dinner or for an evening party, but they would work equally well for a wedding or similar. Simply divine.

The Look for Less: Summer Wedding Chic

Finally, the weather is improving and my thoughts are turning towards summer parties and weddings. I've been inspired by the lace dress from Planet that I spotted the other day to create an outfit on Polyvore that would be gorgeous for such occasions.  I believe the lilac accessories I have chosen compliment the delicateness of the lace but still add an elegant pop of colour.
