For those who like to show off their legs, ankles and toes but can’t bear to wear a high-heeled sandal all day, a strappy sandal is an excellent option. Strappy sandals are exceptionally popular this season, as the trend for gladiator sandals has gained considerable momentum thanks to catwalk shows in the spring. Though the majority of strappy sandals are designed with women and girls in mind, there are a few options out there for fashionable men.
Strappy sandals aren’t always an easy match for the workplace. But if you’re confident enough to give it a go, there are some smart strappy sandals on offer from the likes of Topshop, Dune, Zara, Faith and even River Island – and according to the fashionistas, it’s easy to pull the look off if you choose wisely.
The thinner the straps, the more delicate your overall outfit should be. The converse is also true, so when you’re wearing a funky floral skirt or a bright top, opt for thicker strapped sandals. Dressy occasions call for more subtle, delicate strappy sandals, but don’t spoil the look by wearing nylons. And one final tip from the hip, when you tie ankle wraps, add a little twist at the back – this will help keep the straps from sliding down, unravelling or bunching when you move around
Similarly, if you’re interested in strappy sandals that are all about fun, check out the jersey gladiator sandals from Urban Outfitters or the equally affordable scarf-tie ankle strap sandals from Topshop. Both offer easy an easy tie-up and comfortably flat foot bed. For those who like their strappy sandals with a little more structure and aren’t afraid of the added height, the Avariella by Aldo, the stunning d’Orsay wedges in black satin from Gucci or the Genevieve by Kate Spade are solid offerings for the coming summer months.
Choose an online retailer with a flexible return policy when you’re buying strappy sandals online – this will allow you to return them if you need to at a later point in time. Also, be careful when selecting strappy sandals online – be sure the straps or ankle wraps will be long enough to meet your needs.
