I know that's a pretty non-descript title, but I didn't really know how else to phrase it. Here's the bottom line: You need to buy yourself some nice sandals. You cannot buy them at Target. You cannot buy them at Payless. I'm sorry ladies; you might have to save up for this one. Here's the goal--spend some money on a pair that's not gonna rub the heck out of your foot, that will go with just about everything (including spring essentials #8 & 9), and you will definitely get your money's worth. Last year I spent $100 on a pair of Sam Edelman silver gladiator sandals, and I literally wore them about every other day. Don't scrimp! Here are some of my favorites:
Anybody can do this, people. It's a flip-flop that wraps around.
Gabriella Rocha at Zappo's for $75.00
Grey? Love. Fringe? Love. Dolce Vita at Shopbop.com for $92.00
Here are some brands to look for--Dolce Vita, Sam Edelman, Steve Madden, and Corso Como, to name a few. They're gonna be right in that sweet spot between $50-$125. If you only buy one pair this season, make it a metallic pair or a nude/brownish color pair. Then you could literally wear them with everything. And for the love of Pete, save the $6.50
Old Navy flip-flops for the beach. (But seriously, you should buy some for the beach, cuz you don't want your nice ones gettin' all roughed up.)

this is good timing b/c i just got an awesome pair of stuart weitzman sandals- $300 on sale for $50. what??? yep.
such good advice, amber.
as a follow up to my first comment, I bought a pair of your recommended Sam Edelman's, and it was a fantastic purchase. So fantastic that today my boss, who never comments on my clothes, said "Nice sandals."
