Boden's 'beautiful' ballet flats are a 'total power shoe' and now have £67 off
Boden customers are rushing to grab a pair of 'stunning' ballet flats that are designed to match almost any outfit while they're on sale. Indeed, those who have already bagged the 'comfortable' Mary Janes have praised them as the 'ultimate power shoe'.
The Penelope Mary Jane Flats in 'Latte Suede' usually sell for £112 but shoppers can nab them with a 60% discount, for a limited time. This reduces the price to a more affordable £44.80, offering a saving of over £67.
The tan flats boast a stylish black capped toe and a strap that ensures your feet stay secure whilst remaining comfortable all day long. They are available in sizes EU 36 (UK 3.5) to EU 46 (UK 8.5), all of which are still in stock online.
Described as a 'modern twist' on the classic Mary Janes, the Boden flats are guaranteed to be the perfect final touch to any outfit. They're made from responsibly sourced suede leather and have a man-made sole.
If you like the shape but aren't fond of the colour, don't fret. The shoes also come in a metallic pink colourway, priced at £96, as well as red patent, £44.80, gold woven leather, £84, tan weave, £50.40, and black suede, £44.80.
Meanwhile, White Stuff's Winnie Woven Ballerina Flats are on sale for £38 down from £75. Available in sizes three to eight, the shoes are made from a woven fabric with memory foam soles for all-day comfort.
Alternatively, Next's Nude and Black Ballerinas Shoes are priced at £24. These flats, available in sizes three to nine, feature a round toe, flat heel and a bow detail at the front, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Meanwhile, over at Boden, the Penelope Mary Jane Flats have an impressive overall star-rating of 4.2 out of five from more than 160 reviews. One chuffed shopper said: "Great pair of flats. Great spring/summer shoes with sophisticated colours with buckle detail. They're suitable for day to evening."
Another penned: "Really cute and comfy. I've had several compliments (I've bought them in the tan shade and black toes) and am thinking of buying another pair in a different colour."
"I love these shoes," another customer gushed. "They are really comfortable and look great. I bought two pairs in different colours and may well buy a third."
However, one shopper gave the Penelope Mary Jane Flats a lukewarm review, describing them as 'beautiful but uncomfortable'. The review reads: "The green and white are beautiful, exactly what I was after. The material and sole is really stiff though and uncomfortable, I'm not sure I'll be able to wear them, which is a shame as I want to love them".
Yet another customer was thrilled with their Boden purchase, adding: "Total power shoes. Comfortable and look good with dresses and trousers. A great pop of colour in an otherwise simple outfit. Fit is great."

Is It Time To Give The Divisive Jeans A Second Chance?
As part of my job, I spend hours scrolling through websites, tracking what's trending and what people are adding to their baskets. One morning, I stopped in my tracks - there they were again: M&S was selling a pair of jeggings with 11,870 reviews, a 4.4-star rating, and 75% of shoppers recommending them, already running low in stock. Jeggings defined a particular moment in fashion history. Picture this: Spring 2010, they were the skinny-fit staple you wore with a Chloé Paddington slung over your arm and an Alexander McQueen scarf looped around your neck. But while they promised the stretch of leggings with the look of jeans, many fell out of love with them because they weren't as comfortable as we hoped, never mind the the endless adjusting and inevitable elastane fatigue. But the day we never thought would come has arrived, and, now, they've been reimagined. Today's versions are softer, more sculpting, and cut from fabrics that lift and flatter, with elasticated high waistbands for ease. One M&S reviewer summed it up simply, saying they had 'waited for these to come back into stock' and that they love 'the fit'. According to Megan, a stylist at Silkfred, the jegging's enduring appeal comes from 'comfort and ease of movement while still giving you the streamlined look of denim.' She describes them as 'polarising' because they sit in the 'in-between space of jeans and leggings' and can instantly conjure memories of the early 2010s - the era of over-styled club looks, heavy eyeliner, and dodgy digital camera snaps. Still, she pointed out that for anyone who loves the feel of leggings and wants skinny silhouettes back in their wardrobe, jeggings are 'an incredibly practical option.' On whether we're seeing a genuine revival, Megan links the resurgence to fashion's wider knack for anything nostalgic, saying that with retailers like M&S reintroducing them, more brands are leaning into the late-2000sand early 2010s aesthetic. She doesn't expect them to dominate denim trends - 'we never saw a jegging on the runway' - but said the rise of comfort-first dressing and body-contouring styles is helping them find their audience again. While Megan believes jeggings will always carry a nostalgic edge, they can be rendered a classic style if worn in minimal ways. Her advice? 'They can look timeless when styled in a minimal, elevated way. Perhaps a dark indigo wash or black jeggings with a crisp, oversized shirt, a blazer, and pointed flats. The key is keeping the rest of the outfit simple and avoiding the over-styled early-2010s look we remember from their first heyday.' In short, jeggings may never reclaim their 2010 peak, but in fashion, no trend is ever truly gone for good. 1. M&S, Ultra High Ankle Leather Jeggings 2. M&S, High Waisted Jeggings Indigo Mix 3.
