This actually comes in avio-platinum color and it’s done in smooth leather material which gives this sandal a very elegant, cool finish. This has no bright designs or the likes, which are also in the vogue, but the simplicity of this sandal is what also makes this elegant.

Rene Caovilla Twisted Swarovksi Crystal Flat Thong Sandals

We don’t usually see a toe ring sandal creation from Rene Caovilla since he’s well known for his jeweled evening shoes, so I’m very excited to show you guys the Rene Caovilla Twisted Crystal Flat Thong Sandals, which, if I’m not mistaken, is our first toe ring sandal feature from him.

Although this is a flat sandal, it still looks as opulent as other evening shoes. It could probably even be more elegant than other evening sandals out there. I so love the twisted straps here. It’s like chains or vines that are luxuriously embellished with crystals— Swarovski crystals, that is! The instep strap and the thong strap, which are made of satin and has metallic leather lining, are both twisted and embellished. How do you like that?

Pre-Order New Neon Versions of Giuseppe Zanotti Mirror-Shield Flats

We all know neon is going to be back this coming season, so this sandal guarantees you of instant on-trend look. This is made of patent leather and it obviously comes in neon pink shade, which is very hard to miss.

The oval-contoured shield atop the wide strap at the vamp adds a modern style to this simple sandal design. If not for that, this could’ve been plain with only a thin toe loop and a strap across the arch.

Here’s a neon green version for option:

$665 Marsell Leather Sandals: Worth it or Not?

For those who are looking for something that’s casual and kind of rugged, here’s the Marsell Leather Sandals.

There’s nothing so fancy about this sandal; and like I said, I think this would be best only for casual use. It’s like an ordinary slipper, if I may say so, but this could surely complete a casual rugged or a chic Gothic look depending on what you would wear with it.

This is not too stylish like other sandals today but you know this can surely work for years.

Made of buttery leather, this sandal has some ruched effect at the vamp, which creates a hint of style. Of course this also has a toe loop to secure; and for comfort, this is designed with leather lining and sole and as well as with padded insole.

Now do you think it’s worth its $665 price tag?

On Trend: Chunky Toe Ring Sandals for a Stylish Next Season Look!

Chunky boat-like shoes are trendy these days. Even celebrities wear such and there are even some who wear it on red carpet events.

Now if you want to be in the vogue as well, I think you should have chunky sandals, too. And luckily, I found two chunky toe ring sandal designs that would surely perfect your next season wardrobe.

First let’s take a look at the Shakuhachi Mock Croc Platform Sandal, which is available in black and in white.

This is made of croc-embossed leather material, which is already very chic. This is obviously strappy but it looks quite classic with its wide adjustable buckled ankle straps, strap across the toe and toe loop design. This also has a zipper fastening at the back, by the way, for easier wear on and off.

Now what really makes this trendy and undoubtedly eye-catching is its silhouette. The sturdy platform is what’s hot these days and since it’s chunky, this will surely be hard to miss.

Next we have the Donald J Pliner Sheena Metallic Wedge slide that comes in gold and silver versions.

This indeed looks chunky but it’s actually because it’s a wedge type of sandal. And honestly, I like Shakuhachi’s Mock Sandals more. But anyway, if you want something that could pull your style to next season’s trend, this sandal could help a lot.

The metallic sheen finish on each version is sure to catch attention. It features crisscross strappy upper with a toe loop, of course, and it’s obviously a slip-on sandal. The 2-inch cork wedge heel and 1 1/2-inch of cork platform will definitely add height and instantly style your getup for the spring and summer.
