Louise Thompson's ‘insanely comfy' £13 sandals instantly elevate holiday outfits
Louise Thompson has found the perfect shoes for summer that can be worn with anything and are 'insanely comfy', and her gold toe ring sandals are now on sale for £13 at ASOS
If you've been trying to find the perfect pair of easy-to-style sandals for the summer, then you can consider the search over. Thanks to Louise Thompson, we've found the perfect pair that are chic, easy to style and, in Louise's own words, 'insanely comfy.'
Louise wore the ASOS DESIGN Florrie Toe Loop Strappy Sandal in Black when she was a guest on brother Sam Thompson 's podcast Staying Relevant last week, sharing a snap of her outfit ahead of recording. She also showed a close up of the sandals on her Instagram stories, writing: 'These delicious sandals were insanely comfy and now only £22.' However, since Louise shared them, the sandals have landed in ASOS' huge summer sale, slashing the price even further from £26 to £13.
The ultra-affordable sandals look far more expensive and luxurious than their £13 price tag, with a smooth faux leather strappy design and an oversized gold ring on the toe post. The chic gold hardware is mirrored in the adjustable buckles on the ankle straps, making them look much more high end.
Toe ring sandals like Louise's Florrie Toe Loop Strappy Sandals have been everywhere this summer, and the ASOS sale is the perfect opportunity to pick up a pair for less. Still available in all sizes from a 3 to a 9, they also have a flexible rubber sole which makes them comfortable and easy to walk in.
The minimalist design and luxe-looking details also make this a pair of sandals that you can wear with just about everything. Whether you style them with a simple pair of jeans and a T-shirt, a flowing maxi skirt on holiday or a pair of shorts and a bikini top around the pool, they're guaranteed to elevate your look in an instant.
Although Louise's pair have broader straps, if you prefer a thinner strappy style this Lipsy Black Flat Metal Toe Loop Faux Leather Sandals are a great alternative. Available for £36 at Next, they come in both black and white.
For something a little softer, Dune's Lyn Gold Toe Trim Sandals are ideal. They're a little pricier at £89, but are made from a soft brown real suede which keeps them comfortable and easy to walk in, although there's also a black pair with real leather straps available.
However if you don't want to break the bank this summer, Louise's Florrie Toe Loop Strappy Sandals are perfect. Grab them for £13 on ASOS during the summer sale now.

Kingston School of Art's 2024 fashion Show: A display of personal narratives and emerging talent
On June 10th, Kingston School of Art's 2024 graduate fashion show in East London showcased the work of 22 emerging designers. Each presented six-look collections that delved into deeply personal experiences and cultural identities, spanning themes of heritage, sustainability, and individual expression in both menswear and womenswear. Among the notable designers was 22-year-old Ashanti Clark from South London, whose collection drew inspiration from her Caribbean family heritage. Her designs incorporated elements from her grandmother's home, such as lace, mahogany, and vibrant textiles, alongside nods to her mother's 1990s fashion. Clark's innovative "luggage dresses," crafted from original 1970s migration luggage, symbolized themes of home, belonging, and the preservation of cultural memory. West London's Bay Paley, 23, found inspiration in Japanese tea culture, creating garments that explored reflection and healing. Influenced by a three-month internship with Issey Miyake in Japan, Paley's collection featured both literal and abstract interpretations of tea, including a pleated tea bag-inspired skirt and a dress referencing the ritual's medicinal properties. Her designs aimed to encourage pause and reconnection in a fast-paced world. Olivia Williams, 23, from Croydon, presented a collection that bridged rural and urban life. Her work referenced Black hiking groups in the UK and the Windrush generation, reimagining furnishings and outdoor materials like tents and umbrellas into modern hiking apparel. With floral prints inspired by Jamaican flora and homages to her grandmother's wardrobe, the collection celebrated community and safe spaces, both in nature and at home. David Frizzell, course leader of the BA (Hons) Fashion programme, emphasized that this year's collections underscored the course's focus on personal storytelling, sustainability, and technical skill. "Our students are reacting in more personal ways than ever before," Frizzell stated. "They're making meaningful statement collections that aren't wasteful or frivolous.' Sponsored by fashion brands Dewhirst and ME+EM, the show continued Kingston University's tradition of fostering the careers of innovative and socially conscious designers.

X Factor's Lucy Spraggan breaks down in tears as she's forced to cancel run of shows
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) X FACTOR star Lucy Spraggan has been forced to cancel a handful of live shows after being struck down with illness. The ITV reality series alum, 33, looked understandably downcast as she took to her Instagram grid for a video to relay the sad news.

She looked pale as she addressed her fans with tears in her eyes and said: "This is absolutely the last message I wanted to be putting out. "I woke up yesterday not feeling well, and today woke up feeling even worse and we've had to make the decision to reschedule the outstore shows this week. "Because my throat feels like its got razor blades in it and my nose is completely blocked. "Not just that it doesn't feel right to be signing things and hugging you cause I don't want you to feel this way either." Sheffield-born Lucy then choked up at the prospect of "letting people down." She then vowed they would reschedule the shows and said: "I'm really sorry to anyone that was coming to London, Leeds, Liverpool and Glasgow - I really really hope I'll get to see you when I do these shows soon." In the video, she confirmed they would be rescheduled to August. Fans were quick to support the Bodies singer in her tough time, and one wrote: "Hope you feel better soon! Look after yourself." A second put: "We love you Lucy! You're not letting anyone down most important thing is you feel better! rest up and I'll see you soon." Lucy Spraggan sings love song about new wife Emilia Smith A third mused: "Oh Luce, so sorry to hear this. You are what's most important. Get well soon," as another posted: "Oh Lucy. You can see how much this is breaking your heart. Hope you feel better soon lovely." Lucy was due to play at the Jacaranda Baltic in Liverpool tomorrow to kick-start her run of shows. STRONG BOND Meanwhile, in happier news, Sober songstress Lucy recently exclusively opened up to The Sun about her friendship with Simon Cowell, who she hails as "like a dad." So close is their bond that Simon played a pivotal role at her wedding to wife Emilia Smith last year. 'He read a poem at our ceremony, which was cute,' Lucy says. 'And he said to me, 'I love seeing you this happy'.' Lucy and Simon's surprising friendship blossomed in 2021, under less than happy circumstances. She was writing her memoir Process: Finding My Way Through - which dealt with the traumatic sexual assault she experienced while competing on The X Factor in 2012. Lucy was one of the favourites to win her series before she mysteriously dropped out of the competition during the live finals. At the time it was reported the then 20-year-old had quit due to illness, and while she went on to have some success as an artist, the question over what had really thwarted her X Factor journey was never fully answered. Then, two years ago, she opened up for the first time that she'd been a victim of a shocking sexual assault - bravely waiving her right to anonymity in the process. She'd been out celebrating friend and fellow X Factor contestant Rylan Clark's birthday at swanky Mayfair nightclub Mahiki, and passed out after hours of boozing. Lucy was taken back to her hotel by a member of the X Factor production team and a hotel porter - but later that night, after Rylan had gone to check on her, the porter returned and used a key card to break into her room. The next day Lucy woke up feeling a 'sense of sheer dread'. She knew she'd been raped, but couldn't piece the rest of the night together. In the aftermath the police were called and the hotel porter was arrested. He was later jailed for 10 years, but was released and deported after three-and-a-half years. 6 She said her throat feels like 'its got razor blades in' Credit: Ruckas 6 She vowed to reschedule the gigs for later this summer Credit: Splash
