Next's €56 sandals hailed as 'stylish and comfy' by shoppers
For just €56, customers can snap up the Chunky Buckled Sandals in a quartet of hues (black, bone white, metallic blue, and patent red) and sizes ranging from 3 to 9.
For those seeking a bit more room, wide fit options are available in sizes 5 to 8, ensuring extra comfort without sacrificing fashion sense.
A Next spokesperson commented on their website: "Get ready for summer, with these holiday-friendly sandals. Featuring a strappy faux leather upper with adjustable buckle fastenings, an open toe and a smooth synthetic footbed, finished with a chunky outsole."
The Chunky Buckled Sandals from Next have garnered a following, with numerous shoppers expressing their satisfaction online. One customer remarked: "Lovely, comfy and look great! Most importantly, no rubbing at all!", reports the Mirror. There are three different style options that shoppers can pick from (Image: Next)
Another shopper noted: " So comfy, soles are quite heavy but not too much, straps are really soft. The width runs slightly big."
A third chimed in: "So comfortable and trendy!".
One customer gushed: "Lovely chunky wide fitting sandals, suit my feet perfectly."
Another satisfied buyer chimed in: "They fit just right, very comfortable. No blisters yet which you can normally get with new sandals."
However, not every shopper was over the moon about their purchase. One voiced their disappointment: "Although I love the look of these sandals, I felt as I wore them for a few hours, the straps stretched and they started slipping down and off my heel. They also squeak as I walk. I wouldn't wear them if I had to walk any distance."
Another found them to be "uncomfortable and very clunky". Meanwhile, a third cautioned: "They look good but the practicality of wearing them means the back strap is constantly falling off. I had them on the tightest setting and it still happened."
Shoppers who are getting ready for the UK summer, or planning a holiday abroad, can find lots of deals online in Next's dedicated Holiday Shop. It includes all the essentials - from casual daytime outfits to stylish swimwear and classy evening dresses.

'Life-changing' food storage hack will stop potatoes sprouting early
A clever lifestyle expert has recently shared a collection of revolutionary fruit and vegetable hacks on TikTok, featuring a brilliant method to prevent your potatoes from sprouting prematurely. TikTok user @lifetips669 uploaded a clip revealing a nifty trick that will extend the lifespan of your grocery shopping. "Vegetable vendors will never tell you these food storage tips," they declared. They revealed an ingenious potato preservation technique, explaining: "Potatoes bought in bulk go bad. Potatoes and apples are good friends. Storing them together prevents sprouting." It appears there's genuine scientific backing to this suggestion, as it reportedly decelerates the ripening process for both items. Based on findings from Tasting Table, apples release ethylene gas, which can halt potatoes' tendency to sprout. The publication also recommends avoiding warm locations for potato storage, choosing instead somewhere "cool, dry and dark", reports the Mirror. However, avoid placing them in the refrigerator; this might convert their starches into sugars, potentially creating dangerous compounds during cooking. Additionally, be aware that the same apple ethylene can damage other fresh produce including onions, melons, broccoli, and peaches, accelerating their ripening and shortening their storage life. In another clever suggestion, @lifetips669 on TikTok advises placing prawns inside an empty mineral water bottle and topping it up with tap water. "Tighten the cap and freeze it," they recommend. "This way it stays fresh for a year."

Similar to potatoes, @lifetips669 highlights that bananas purchased in large quantities tend to deteriorate more rapidly. They believe covering the stem with cling film can preserve them in "still perfect" condition until you crave a banana. TikTok users have been swift to express their gratitude, with one commenting: "Wow I'm so encouraged and happy, thanks a lot for this info." Another added: "Wow additional knowledge. Thanks for sharing the tips." Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest news from the Irish Mirror direct to your inbox: Sign up here.
