6 best vegan shoes from French brand Minuit sur Terre + how to style them

Minuit sur Terre is a French vegan shoe brand from Bordeaux… which is where I’m from too! Here’s a bit of background on the brand and then let’s jump straight into their best shoes and how to style them.

Created in 2017, Minuit sur Terre has been committed to making shoes and accessories without animal products. They use environmentally friendly materials, such as grapes, apples and plastic bottles removed from the Mediterranean. They make their shoes in Portugal and pay all their stakeholders fairly. And they ship worldwide!

So let’s check out their best vegan sneakers, sandals and boots! I’ve included some outfit ideas too, as they’ve been popular on this blog in the past.

(Note: this post isn’t sponsored by Minuit sur Terre, all opinions are my own. I just thought it would be cool to highlight a vegan brand! The post does contain affiliate links. If you click a link and make a sale, I may earn a commission at no cost to you.)

I’m loving the current trend of colour-blocked shoes. It was actually quite tough picking which of Minuit sur Terre’s colour-blocked sneakers to share, because I love the different colour combinations!

This outfit would be great for comfortably running errands, while being stylish.

These shoes just evoke summer and nostalgia for me! The daisies give me a delightful 90s vibe, so I’ve paired them with retro-looking jeans. I also included a sunny top to keep the outfit bright and cheerful.

Minuit sur Terre’s vegan sandals

Like with the other categories, it was tough narrowing it down! I’m writing this at the height of summer and it seems like Minuit sur Terre’s sandals are going fast. So it may be that the exact colours and models shared below are no longer available by the time you read this, but have a look at the rest of their sandals range to see if there’s something else you fancy.

1. Durance Sage

I’m definitely in a sage phase and would buy anything in sage green if I could! These sandals are giving me strong wedding guest vibes, though you could wear them to anything as sage is very much the colour of the moment.

2. Figari Forget-me-not

These sandals could also be dressed up or down, and would look great as a way of elevating a casual summer outfit. I have to say, Minuit sur Terre really know what they’re doing in terms of colours!

You can’t see it in the image, but the back on this swimsuit is gorgeous. Make sure you check it out!

My love for country music (all hail Queen Shania!) is no secret and these boots are definitely giving me country vibes! They are subtle enough that you wouldn’t look like you’re in fancy dress, but enough of a statement to put a spring in your step. These boots were made for walking…

2. Firenze Black

This might sound a bit odd, but I like how black the black is on these boots. They look crisp and polished.

I feel like I’m going all in on the country vibes with these last two outfits, but here goes! This last outfit would be great for sipping coffee outside of your favourite café. Comfortable, and the hat keeps the sun out of your eyes.

“I could never give up meat”… How many times “I could never give up meat”… How many times have we heard that? Or said it ourselves? 🤔

The foods we are used to can have a very strong emotional bond, even though they’re not always the best for us. Plant-based eating is better for our health and the planet (and of course the animals!), but I can understand having cravings for foods we have enjoyed for a lot of our lives. 😬

In the blog post, for each dinner, I’ll offer two options. One is the 100% vegan option and one is the one to use if you’re taking baby steps towards going vegan. Find them by following the link in my bio! 😘

1️⃣ Last week I headed into Oxford to work from "the office", aka @oxfordtownhall and had a nice lunch at my old hangout spot @artcafeoxford

2️⃣ I don't share much of my "job job" haha on here, but it is very rewarding making positive changes (or at least trying to) with @oxfordcitycouncil, like involving teenage girls in designing park equipment or trying to get more trees in the city 🌳🏙️✨

3️⃣ Anyhoo, back to fun vegan stuff - I highly recommend the Art Café if you're in Oxford and fancy something vegan, they have quite a lot of variety. The flapjack was a slice of heaven haha. (This isn't sponsored, but I will accept payment in free flapjacks and juices! 😜)

4️⃣ After a long day, it was lovely to come home to some treats I had ordered earlier:
🍄☕ Adaptogenic coffee from @london.nootropics (if you want to check them out, use code jessicagoodenough at checkout for 15% off)
📆🌷 A beautiful @amberdavenport_uk calendar that's going to serve as our family calendar so that we're on the same page this year! 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦😵‍💫😅

5️⃣ I struggled with energy a bit after a few short nights, so I've been trying a few things to stay energised. One of them is finishing my shower with cold water (okay, let's be real, it was cool water, still working on this haha)... 🥶⚡

6️⃣ ... the other one is getting fresh air after lunch to avoid getting caught up in the post-lunch slump. 👢👢🍃

7️⃣ This weekend I made the feijoada recipe from my new @thehappypear book... It tasted better than it looked haha. In fact I'd say it was the yummiest thing I've made in a while. 😋 Not exactly like the meaty ones I had in Brazil (though that was almost a decade ago) but super good!

Most people start their vegan journey with food, b Most people start their vegan journey with food, but quickly we start questioning what our wardrobes and homes are full of… And sometimes it’s not a pretty picture. I never advocate for throwing everything out and going on a crazy shopping spree, but if you are in the market for new vegan furniture, here’s where you can get it! 😊

I’ll be honest, I thought I was being clever while writing this list. I thought I’d check out the list of companies with a @theoriginalvegansociety trademark, pluck out a few furniture ones and tadaa… Job done! 🌱

Well it turns out that none of the companies listed actually sell furniture… so back to good old Google. As much as I love @immaculatevegan to find lots of vegan fashion brands, there isn’t a comparable platform for vegan furniture (should I create it??). 🤔

In any case, here are some cool companies I found who sell vegan furniture in the UK (and further afield too)! ✨

👩🏼‍💻 People want my skills, I'm valuable.
⛱️ We can go on trips and make memories.
💔 People can pass away at any point: say the nice things now and make the time to see them.
🖐🏼 It's worth insisting with medical things as their resolution can bring a lot of relief.
🩸 Stress is real - make sure to prioritise self care.
💳 I'm a savvy businesswoman who takes risks and invests in herself because I know it's working. 😊
🧘🏼‍♀️ I need to pick exercise that suits my goals and lifestyle, not vice-versa.
💻 I showed up last year, I'm showing up more this year. 😊

Trying to shop vegan but a bit confused about how Trying to shop vegan but a bit confused about how to read labels (or online descriptions)? 🤔

Vegan clothing materials are made without animal products. These can be plant fibres (cotton, hemp, linen) or plastic materials (polyester, acrylic). 🌱♻️

Clothing materials that aren’t vegan are extracted from the skin (leather), feathers (down), fur, teeth and bones of a wide variety of animals. 💔

How many did you spot? 😘

1️⃣ Goodbye 2022 with a beautiful decoration from the best marraine @astridjabl 🎈
2️⃣ Starting the year with smoothies after quite a bit of chocolate and vegan cheese over Christmas 😵‍💫
3️⃣ My words for 2023 - tell me yours in the comments! 💖

5️⃣ This quarter I'm focusing on improving my wardrobe: more to come on that front soon, but as part of it, I'm trying to document my outfits more 💃🏼
6️⃣ I'm also re-focusing on eating my Daily Dozen (by @nutrition_facts_org) and I'll be re-doing the meal plan I created a while back 🫒🍝
7️⃣ Inspired by @gretchenrubin's #Outside23in23, I've been trying to head out of my home office natural habitat more often (though not every day like she is) 🌳

Where we're at with the kitchen renovation: ✅ T Where we're at with the kitchen renovation:

✅ The cupboards are all in
✅ The beautiful breakfast bar with a waterfall worktop is done (photos soon once we declutter it 😬)
✅ All the worktops are in place
✅ All appliances are in place
✅ The hob backsplash tiles are on the wall (the ones you can see in the video are now grouted)

What's still to happen:
💙 Treating the hob worktop (it's currently covered, under the tiles in the video)
💙 Put hob in
💙 Get lights over breakfast bar working
💙 Purchase bins + the "back" of the breakfast bar (or front if you're looking at it from the living room!)
💙 Finish adding cupboard doors
💙 ... and probably many more things!

The Man (aka @robbeaver 😅) has done the vast majority of the work and managed the whole project... I don't think he's in a rush to take on a big project for such a difficult client again. 😜
