Trendy Sandals
Currently I’m head-over-sandals for those chunky black slides seen everywhere.
Save: Zara, $60
Splurge: Birkenstock, $130
I really like the first five, but I’m not a fan of the recent Birkenstock trend – I get that they’re probably really comfy, but they’re just not for me. And I totally fell in love with the flower-y Vans, how cute are they?!
