The Budget Fashionista

I'm planning on vacationing in the tropics and I need to pack as lightly as
possible. I'm interested in buying a sandal that's comfortable, stylish and
versatile for walking around, hanging on the beach and going out in the
evening. any suggestions would be highly appreciated!

A few of my latest obsessions in sandals…
i love these for 36$ in gold

i'm not overly preppy but since you are vacationing in the tropics you could spoil yourself with a steven salario pair I like the white on white and silver here: http://www.splashofpink.com/product/detail…NDAL/?of1=&

Naturalizer! Naturalizer! Naturalizer! Their sandles are cute and very comfortable!

Have Fun!

I gotta echo ms. E.. love naturalizer sandals.. stylish and comfortable.. can also try aerosoles- who know have some stylish options

Teva MUSH!! LOVE LOVE LOVE these sandals, so so so comfy & you can usually get them for cheap at REI OUTLET - http://www.rei.com/outlet/.  I wear them with shorts, dresses & pretty much everything!

Ok, those look like a total rip off of Jack Rogers sandals & even though they are all really cute I am not sure about the comfort level. I know that Lilly Pulitzer shoes are WAY WAY uncomfy & I would double think buying shoes from their site. Don't get me wrong I LOVE Lilly - going to the warehouse sale in 2 weeks - but the shoes will leave you wanting.

Perhaps I am wrong. If they are comfy then what do I know!  LOL

Have you tried ES? I have the cutest sandals from them (and they are cushy as well, meaning you can wear them for extended periods of time). I love mine because I can wear them to work and out with my friends on the weekend =)

The most comfortable sandals I own are a pair of two-strap birkenstocks. I know they have them in fun and fashionable colors/styles on QVC's website.

Birkenstock Thongs

it is simple: belly dance foot jewels. because of my heigth difference with my groom, that is what me and my brides maids are wearing. you cannot go wrong with them! I wear them out doors even.

Love my Birks, but have to admit they are not the most stylish sandals around. I also love my MEPHISTOS (similar in style to Birkenstocks).

Aerosoles, and Naturalizer. Or born. Born while expensive is really high quality… and really beautiful. almost moreso than Aerosoles and Naturalizers

I bought these for this summer. I am really short so I wanted something that is comfy with some height. I seriously want to wear these everyday!

Those are cute Calamity! However, I have a thing the material that goes between my toes. It has to be soft or I get blisters like you would not believe. I seriously stayed about from thongs for years because of that but then I found my MUSH…lol
