So disappointing that Burdastyle now charges for what use to be free :(

Lovely, I had a pair like this a few years ago, and wore them to death. The side openings make them really comfy – you can just not do up the top set on either side if you’ve eaten too much dinner! I need to get working on a new pair, just in case the summer appears!
