Jordi Flip-Flops, for Fun Summer Style
Flip-flops
have gone way beyond being just beach and gym shower footwear to being an essential part of a summer wardrobe. And since most of love a new pair, but occasionally have to rein in the spending just a tad, Lindsay Phillips's versatile Jordi ($24) is a good choice because it can be accessorized with "snaps" ($12) that secure to the center front and can change the look to match your outfit or mood (see the gallery for just a few options). Jordi comes in six colors and sizes 6-11.

Fashioned in mauve leather (which looks white in the photograph) it has a super high and chunky heel (over 5 inches!) with a platform sole that measures a little over 1 inch. There are cut out details along the side and the vamp, with a side buckle that seamlessly flows into a curvy Z shape. And to top it all off, the double tassels are made with patent leather adding an unexpected and flirty twist.

The slouchy t-strap sandals have three little pink and beige flowers at the vamp and an elasticized strap making for a snug and individual fit. Given its understated color, the Veena Sandals could compliment a wide range of outfits. If you are of the vertically challenged group and desire some height, myself included, you'll appreciate the five inch heel with a one inch platform. Also available in grey.

Christian Louboutin Discolilou Sandals

Prepare your feet with a relaxing and uplifting pedicure because Louboutin's Discolilou's Sandals are calling your name. The undeniable king of women's most sexy and celebrated heels has done it again. My mouth dropped open when I initially saw his Dillian Heels - a shoe that we previously features and one that I would love to own. And since the Dillian has come out, there has been an over abundance of heels that were "inspired by" it's captivating leather ruffling style. Well this time, Loubotin has captured my heart again with his Discolilou sandals ($895). These heels takes the bare minimum approach by using knotted skinny straps of leather and a gold toned o-ring as it's a single embellishment. While it is a simply designed shoe - lacking Swarovski crystals, exotic leather and all the other bells and whistles that many shoes posses - don't disregard the Discolilou so quickly. The "come hither" high heeled sandals are ultra sexy and its versatility is long lasting, making it a worthy yet pricey investment. They would look fabulous with virtually anything that you wear, but they would be perfect with a sleeveless summer print dress that hits just below the knees.

Christian Louboutin Adona Flat Sandals

Filed under: Shoes

When it comes to Christian Louboutin, I immediately think of high heeled red sole shoes. I never think of flats. Honestly I didn't even realize that Mr. Louboutin even made flats until I found myself browsing through Saks Fifth Avenue. The Adona flats are not your ordinary flats. And why would we expect anything less than fabulous and head turning when coming from the creative mind of Christian Louboutin? These aren't the flats that you can just throw on while walking home from work or while running errands – and with a price tag of $1265, you may not want to run these beauties into the ground. These gorgeous flats have more spunk and unique detailing that make them stand apart from the rest. Reminiscent of his Dillian Heels that we featured, the Adona flats has a similar ruffle detailing but with shiny metallic leather. Pair with sun dress, shorts & tank or virtually any outfit because it will be these shoes that will add the perfect finishing touch to your outfit.

Versace Scarf Thong Sandal

Filed under: Shoes

During the summer months, sometimes it feels like the goal in getting dressed in the morning is to wear as little as possible just to stay cool. Of course you still want to be fashionable (and look respectable) without sweating like a pig. One of the things I hate most are sweaty feet – what an uncomfortable feeling! These Versace Scarf Thong Sandals may give your feet the breathing room they need. A modern and sophisticated alternative to the very popular ballet flats, they are made of white leather and elegantly decorated with a gold & orange abstract logo-print scarf. Price: $307.

Kork-Ease Leather Wedges

Filed under: Shoes

The name doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. Kork-Ease? Sounds like a new wine closure not a new shoe but Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf's are flogging this latest retro shoe that is available exclusively online through the two stores. It has a suede-covered wedge heel, crisscross upper, buckled strap and golden hardware. The shoe sells for $175 but I could probably unearth a similar pair myself in the back of my mother's closet.  I love a good wedge, like those Prada platform darlings Marsha covered a few weeks ago but these are an inch away from Birkenstock land.

Lacoste "Arabesque" Leather Slip-On

Filed under: Shoes

Lacoste's colorful collection of Arabesque Leather Slip-On Skimmers are a great alternative to sneakers and flip flops. They are simply styled with contrasting pastel color schemes. These would look good with jeans, shorts or a dress. It features a rubber sole - comfort is always important - a cute bow and the Lacoste logo on the side. Shown here in white, pink and aqua. Price: $98.
