I love Tretorn shoes and wellies, they're a real salt of the earth brand that exude healthy Swedishness.
Start have reduced the pretty duck egg blue canvas pumps to a reasonable £35. It's not too late to make the T56 poplin trainer your casual summer staple. Team them with a pair of denim cutoffs and stripy top, boat and lake optional.

Another Friday, and another roundup of casual shoes to keep you comfy - at least until it's time to slip on the party shoes, of course.
Trainers are about as casual as it gets, but sometimes they can be just that bit too casual for work, etc, which is why we've rounded up this collection of metallic trainers for you. Metallics instantly dress up a shoe, while the narrower shapes of these selections make them suitable for wearing casually without making you look like you're off to the gym.
I particularly like these Angeline Tournier heart trainers which are £145 at Viva la Diva, and prove that casual comfort and glam style can go hand in hand. Take a look under the jump for some more...

It's Friday, which means you may be looking forward to slipping your feet into something more comfortable after a week of work shoes.
First up for you we have these green canvas flats by Ted Baker, which are a little more interesting than most causal pumps on account of that wavy shape at the sides. I love the bright green colour too, and the fact that these have been rduced to £15 in the Office sale is an added bonus!
Read on to see some more...

I may have no love for trainers in all their many shapes and forms, but even I can see the appeal of these ones. They're by Ash, and they're £105 at My-Wardrobe.com, but if you love that retro casual style, you may just think they're worth every penny. I particularly like the copper colour, which adds a touch of class to the style.

I'm back on the floral hook again! Only this time it's the Hawaiian sort of flower that only blooms on shoes and clothing this side of the Atlantic.
If you're going to wear flip-flops, you might as well go the whole hog and buy some that speak of cocktails on the beach, and Ted Baker's flipflops step neatly into the role. Rubbery and completely waterproof, they'll weigh virtually nothing in your luggage. On sale at Office half price for £8

Although it was the bright green colour of these RSVP flip flops that initially caught my eye, this is far from the only colour these shoes are available in. No, you can also buy a pair in pink, black, white and blue, all with that distinctive large glass ornament on the front. These are comfortable and casual while still being just a little bit glitzy, and the choice of colours means that you should be able to find a pair to suit almost every outfit. They're $64 and have a cushioned heel bed too, to add to the comfort factor. Get them at Zappos.

The problem with plimsolls is that, comfortable and cute though they are, they can make you feel like you're back at school and ready for gym class. Not these ones, though. Faith's Kalik pumps are what happened when the school plimsoll grew up and decided that, actually, it would quite like a bit of a makeover. An animal print makeover.
This is the leopard print version, but they're also available in zebra (and a few other, non-animal prints besides) so chose your animal, hand over your £15 and forget all about that gym class...
