I am an avid shoe collector! Well let’s face it I’m an avid collector of shoes, bags, clothes, jewels….. I could go on! But I’ve scored something pretty cool so I thought I’d share with you.

I’ve had my beady eye on the classic Chanel Espadrilles for years, but let’s face it, they are pretty untouchable with that price point. But I’ve found a near match. From New Look of all places.*****

*** March 2018 Update

This item has sold out. But ASOS have a very similar pair.

The Jaslynn Espadrille and they have a wide fit version too. Both styles Come in nude and navy. Also a bargain at £12. Run, don’t walk. K xox

They are white, frayed on the edge and with a knitted toe cap. They are flat, comfortable and my new fave foot candy. What’s not to love?! But the best news is they are under a tenner! £9.99 to be exact!

If I was you, I’d be clicking this link quick smart to get your summer chic staple. They literally go with everything and you’ll be the coolest kid on the block. For sure!

They are available in black too, so that’s kind of a given that I’m gonna invest. It would be rude not to!

Enjoy my loves.

Welcome to The Beauty in the Darkness. I am Kiki. I am a forty-something retired Online Content Editor and Adviser. I’m also a Law Grad and a published author.

If you have landed here there is a good chance you have an interest in depression and anxiety or living with chronic illness. You may be suffering yourself, or you may have a loved one who is.

I’ve lived with depression and severe anxiety for close to 30 years now. At first it was the most devastating and life changing diagnosis. But thankfully I was surrounded by family who had experience of it, friends who were so understanding and a medical team who, quite frankly, saved my life. Within 2 months of being completely broken at 19, I was back working and studying and living life to the full.

When my physical health changed around ten years ago now, I had to take a good hard look at both my physical and mental health. I retired on ill health grounds from a very successful job and began what would be a journey, to say the least.

There have been many unbelievable lows but some awe inspiring highs too. But one of the best things to come out of it all was my passion for writing. Particularly my passion for writing about mental health and general well-being. To just know that I may be helping others feel they are not alone in their struggle and that with the right approach and support and some serious investment into themselves, they too can live a full life.

I've recently updated the blog and i'm working on going back through the archives and bringing all that really good basic info to the front of the website again. So hopefully you can find even just one small piece of advice that helps you to feel seen and heard and gives you some relief and hope for the future. Because believe me when I say, there is always hope. And even when you think the darkness will never leave, I promise you it does.

So, I too am about to embark on a new chapter. Almost 50 and ready to share what I've learnt in the past 10 years.

Click and buy the new Ebook - ‘What To Do If You Think You’re Depressed’ for immediate guidance on the steps you need to take to get well. It’s my first published book and all the tips I have learned over the years.

Alternatively click on the MENU icon for immediate access to all the other great articles in the archive.

I’m really glad you're here and I hope you use this website as a place for solace and understanding and just to know you're not alone. Feel free to leave a comment or send a message from the contact page if you need any advice.

Onwards always,

Kiki xxx
