Summer Fashion: Jewelry-Bedecked Shoes

Sandals with a little bling have been on the radar for the last couple of summers, but we’re not tired of them yet—not by a long shot. We recently did a look for less on embellished flip-flops, and our budget-conscious point of view, we think some bejeweling on our feet is just the thing to kick up a basic summer ensemble without dumping a bunch of cash into something too frivolous. Oh, and bejeweled doesn’t have to mean tween-worthy sequins and beads—we’re seeing more and more metallic chain and link-type details, which might better suit the more subtle among us. The best part is that you can get ‘em on the cheap—our favorite phrase, by the way. Some of-the-moment options we’ve got bookmarked for when the change jar is full:

Women’s Xhilaration Tressa Thong Sandals, Fuchsia, $14.99

Chinese Laundry Kali Jeweled Thong, $44.95, DSW

Women’s Rhinestone Thong Sandal, $10.92, Wal-Mart

Bandolino Inka 3, $49.95, ShoeBuy.com

Raine Sandal Wedge (also in wide width), $19.99, Payless
