  10. FAVOURITE POST EVER! Lol.

    Antik, Philosophi, Fendi, Siger Morrison, Costume National, I want them all SOOOO much!

    I do have however, the metallic silver ones from Victoria's Secret, my complaint though is that they are cheaply made (duh) AND the size is small, medium, large and the small is still a tad too big for my feet. Oh well!

    My goal was/is to have sandals of every colour this summer and I think I'm almost there :)

    ReplyDelete
  11. OMG! Those gladiators are just gorgeous!!

    ReplyDelete

  16. Whoa some of those sandals made me gasp out loud. Especially the first two. And those jeweled ones...I must have a pair. Sigh.
    And those wrap sandals look like so much fun!
    Yeah, I need to start wearing flats more often. I'm only five feet tall so I tend to wear heels a lot. But yeah, flats would be way more comfortable to wear on days I have to walk a lot. :)
