Gladiator sandals!!

Hello!
One of my favorite things about summer fashion is the shoes! Confession, I have a major shoe fetish. I love all types of shoes from flats to pumps! One of my latest obsessions is the gladiator sandal. These caged shoes are super hot and comfortable. I love how these shoes can be totally casual or super sexy. The gladiator sandal has become a huge trend over the past year and now have funky accents like studs or zippers. Wear them with shorts, sun dresses, and skirts! J'adore!

This Miss KG gladiators goes for $86.20. They come in brown or gold but the brown is tres chic. I love the detail on the bands so they're not all the same and so typical. There's an alternation of weaves, braids, and zigzag. The buttons on top add are sleek and hardware makes everything more more edgy.

These Pixie Market gladiators go for $83. I love these shoes, they have the conservative oxford, eco-friendly canvas, yet caged sexy vibe. These are super cute and I love the lace up front. These are perfect for the boho or hippie girl. These are perfect for concerts with shorts and oversized T-shirt or hanging with your guy in a cute floral romper!

These sandals go for $85. The shoe design is more conservative then some with just plain straps. What makes this pop is the color! I love the cherry red color and it is the perfect pop of color for any outfit. Everyone loves a red pump but a red gladiator is perfect for summer!

These Jeffrey Cambpell sandals go for $99 and come in black and brown. These shoes are perfect for that edgy rocker. The straps are tightly bound which gives them an edge since your not showing skin. The studs add the extreme edge and rocker look to it. You have to have some oomph to rock these shoes. Wear them with acid washed shorts to complete the rocker vibe.

Marias gladiators are on sale for $59.99. It comes in silver, gold, and black, I personally like the black best. These are super sleek and are a bit more sophisticated to dress up. I am in love with the lace-up front and the symmetrical cutouts. Wear these with a dress for date night or for during the day with tailored shorts.

These Point and Glimmer gladiators go for $99.95. I love the statement center piece of all the crystals! It makes this a statement piece and jewels are always a cute touch. The thin straps really accentuate the center and makes you look at the bling. The black is sleek and this can be worn for a summer night out.

The twists make it more glam and the fabric looks to have a bit of sparkle. These are perfect if you have a date or a party. This is the glam of a shoe without having to wear a heel.

These are from Forever 21 for $22.80. These come in silver and brown, the brown is much cuter though! I love the beads on these shoes and are a totally unexpected accent. This look is perfect for walking around after the beach or even with a sundress for pre-night fun!

These Pazla gladiators are on sale for $66. I am obsessed with these sandals!! I love the ankle straps and how sleek the straps are. The straps don't outshine and the ankle statement. Another plus is that it comes in four different colors, white, black, olive, and tan. Love!

Splurge! $450 Jimmy Choo gladiators!! Most sandals have the zipper on the back but I love how they mix it up and put the zipper on the front. These are classic and sophisticated and can be worn for day, work, or night. West them with cropped boy friend jeans, maxi dress, or a skirt. These work for everything and the patent leather is always a nice touch.

Gladiators are one of the hottest shoes for summer! I love how you don't have to hide your feet and they're so comfortable. Get the plain straps or add some spice with studs and zippers. Another plus is you can wear them casually with shorts, polished with tailored pants or a pencil skirt, or doll it up with a dress or skirt. Love!!
