Perfect shoes for the pool - GB Ipanema

We’re off to fine and sunny Brisbane shortly to visit relatives, some of whom have just arrived back from England. There will be warm weather involved, and possibly pools, so I needed myself a pair of fashionable shoes for just such an occasion (I’ve already got the swimmers).

During one of the many hunting expeditions over the past little while for new summer shoes has hauled me the perfect pair (though from last season); a lovely pair of Gisele Bündchen’s Ipanema GB shoes/flip-flops/thongs from Novo Shoes. They’re all plastic so no worries about getting them wet, textured sole so no worries about slipping out of them while wet, and they still look very pretty (and they’re even mostly black).

I’m not a fan of thongs; actually I loath them. But these, these pass muster.
