This summer, I'm looking forward to bohemian prints, sheer skirts, chunky leather sandals, straw hats; the works! Though I've been thrift hunting for a maxi skirt for what seems like forever now, I've had trouble finding anything worth buying.
On the other hand, my many hours of internet browsing have led me to great discoveries in 70s style sandals! The key features I looked for were thicker, more stable straps, real leather and preferably a little heel to add height to my 5' frame
The best pair I found were these Matiko wedge sandals. They are 100% leather and have a 2 inch heel. Their sleek enough to build a great frame but have two cons:
- They are "online only", which adds $20.oo to the
- $148.00 price tag
What do you think?
Aahhh, la vie boheme!
ReplyDeleteI think you should keep looking for something cheaper, you'll definitely find it. I don't know how long you've been saving money for the Raybans.. Mmm, tough decision though.

@anna Katrina: I don't know! I randomly collected inspirational photos from tumblr! Try American Apparel!
ReplyDeleteI think those shoes are gorgeous, but I've seen a lot of similar looking sandals for much less. Keep looking, there are wallet friendly options!
ReplyDeleteChic on the Cheap
Love those sandals, but you could definately find something in a similiar style for much less, although they may not be all leather.
ReplyDeleteI'm publicly following your blog and I would love it if you could check out mine and follow it.

ReplyDeletelove the sandals! kind of pricey though indeed... i usually save my money for the really big heels and spend less on my flats, which is kinda crazy cause its the second that i use the most :P

ReplyDeletegood shoes, but honey there is always something cheaper out there! Not sure where you are at but in California (at Target) Mossimo sandals which are very similar looking are only $30. The shoes actualy look at little like Dolce Vita knock offs. anyways keep me posted with what you decide to do!

I adore lengthly skirts but NYC streets can be pretty grosse for me to be rocking them often. I think if you don't find a better pair within the upcoming weeks before summer go for the splurge. You can mispalce your raybans but not these wedges.
