Review: Konvine Roll-Up Shoes

 A little bit about Konvine taken from their website:

Konvine Footwear is ideal for many usage occasions including;
  • After a big night out - when you've had enough of those painful, yet stylish shoes!
  • When travelling to work - running shoes are not only cumbersome, but are not too attractive with business attire.
  • Airplane travel slippers - our comfortable shoes are the perfect fit for your handbag & can simply be unfolded when you are ready to relax during the ride.
  • Around the office - Everyone likes to be comfortable at their desk but still need to be presentable if you need to speak to other workers, clients or the boss. Our foldable shoes will fit right in your office drawer or handbag and can be a great alternative to wearing your heels.
  • Wedding Shoes - Every bride says the same thing, "Why did I buy those heels. And I never knew smiling could hurt". But after hours or walking around on your stilts and smiling nonstop, you'll thank yourself for being so smart by buying Konvine's White Wedding Shoes.
Konvine foldable ballet flats are not disposable & will last you well in to the future, unlike some of the other foldable shoes that are available on the market.
I hear from many women that they are not slaves to their heels, and much prefer flip-flops. But they all have to wear the stillettos once in a while - and carrying around several different pairs of shoes for one event is just ridiculous. Our shoes are rugged enough to walk anywhere. The sole is made of a study base so your shoes will last for years to come.


The Truth's Review:
 I absolutely love the Konvine shimmery black roll-ups and flip-flops I received to review. I just wish I had know about these earlier, as I have on several occasions ruined a pair of stockings by taking off my heels due to the pain. These shoes rolled-up small enough to fit in my car glove box or in my purse. So, I will always have a spare pair to put on when my heels become to painful.My flip-flops come in handle on them hot days and I just can't wear my shoes no more. If I am out and about, all I have to do is just grab my flip-flops and pop them on. I usually put my shoes in my car and keep on with the day wear my roll-up flip-flops.
The Konvine roll-up shoes are well-made and comfortable to wear. They felt soft and cushy with no pinching or squishing of my feet. They almost felt like I am wearing my a pair slippers.
Where to Buy:
You can buy Konvine roll-up shoes online at their website Konvine.com

 The Truth's Thoughts:
The generous folks over at Davinci Gourmet sent me 4 bottles of their flavored syrups to try out for all of you. We are big coffee and tea drinkers here so I was really excited to receive them. We received the following 4 flavors:
Caramel Sugar-Free Syrup – which has a buttery toasted sugar and vanilla taste to it. This syrup sells for $7.99 a bottle and my hubby has been using it in his evening coffee the past few nights and absolutely loves it!











Kahlua Flavored Sugar-Free Syrup – If you love the taste of Kahlua you are going to love this syrup! My hubby has been using it in his coffee and I added 2 teaspoons of it to my chocolate cake batter over the weekend and wow…that chocolate cake tasted fabulous! This one sells for $7.99 a bottle.
Classic Vanilla Syrup – This pure flavor is extracted from real vanilla beans and is very versatile. You can use it in your hot teas, iced teas, coffees, espressos, desserts, etc. We have been enjoying it in our coffees and I made a batch of homemade vanilla ice cream in our ice cream maker on Sunday and I added 2 teaspoons to the mix and I love how our ice cream came out. It had a nice (but not over-powering taste to it). This one sells for $7.49 a bottle.







Classic Toasted Hazelnut Syrup – This syrup has your classic roasted hazelnut flavor that is perfect for hot coffees and hot teas. Since receiving this syrup…my adult daughter and mother have been using this in their coffees along with some whipped cream and love it. This one sells for $7.49 a bottle.



 You don’t have to go out and pay expensive coffee shop prices anymore because you can purchase a bottle of DaVinci Gourmet syrups and make your own at home!!! I am not that big on coffee but my husband likes to drink coffee, and he loves being able to add a little kick as he calls it to his coffee.
