When it comes to luxury items, I KNOW what I love. I tend to obsess over said item (oftentimes for years) prior to finally making the decision to purchase. Once I make the decision, I usually wear the heck out of whatever it is (I really only invest in luxury handbags and shoes) and I have to say, I wish I had gotten these a lot sooner than I did (I purchased them last Spring). So why these specific sandals? I can’t really say what leads me to fall in love with one thing or another but I knew I just LOVED these sandals from the moment I saw them.
In California, we wear sandals for a large portion of the year so I knew I’d get a ton of wear out of them (practical AND cute, lol). I had a hard time deciding on the color and when I initially purchase them, there were only a handful of color options (they’ve since added SO many). I initially purchased this color (deep blue navy) which is their classic color and while I REALLY liked it, once I got them on, I knew I wanted something a little different. I exchanged them for one of the multi color options (these to be exact) and am obsessed! The color combos are endless and all SO good- this gold pair has my heart right now!
This shoe is unique because the upper part of the sandal is made from embroidered cotton (so comfy) and the insole is made out of leather (and has either a stunning color or design!). Similar to Chanel (and many luxury brands), they typically take an annual price increase (the price has gone up $40 since I purchased mine) which is always something I like to mention in case you’re on the fence! Here are some things worth knowing about this slide:
- Made in Italy
- Comfort– while I wouldn’t call these “supportive”, they are VERY comfortable! They are a little stiff right out of the box and like many Italian made shoes, break in beautifully. That is NOT to say they aren’t comfortable while they break in…because they are.
- How To Style– too many ways to count. Wear them with jeans, shorts and dresses! Wear them to the pool on vacation or out to dinner with a little skirt- *bonus that they’re darling AND flat. Will we ever wear heels again? Lol.
- Sizing– these run tts however the suggest that you go up a 1/2 size if you have a wider foot. I am a true 7.5 and got a 37.5.
- Rating– If I could give them an 11/10 I would! I love them SO much and am thrilled with my decision to purchase them. While I didn’t get a chance to wear them much last Summer thanks to the pandemic, I am PUMPED to wear them ALL Summer long!
Other luxe goodies on my radar: these Gucci mules in white. I have the black and wear them ALL the time! I’ve had this YSL Rive Gauche tote in my cart many times. I can’t stop looking at this Prada cross body bag! It looks so cute and practical!
