Summer season is fastly approaching, and for some of us, it's already here. That means it's time to dust off your sandals and show of those pretty pedicures. If you are looking for a new pair this year, here are some gorgeous options:

The color "rose dust" is my pick

This one has tiny spikes on it, but the gold keeps it soft


I've seen this sandal in almost every magazine. Love it in snakeprint.


If you are looking for a great alternative, I am obsessed with these by Merona.
They come in a multitude of colors.

I have two:
Plus my Reef flip flops - you have to have at least one pair of those!


How incredibly gorgeous is this?!
Somehow, I'm never this done up at the beach. Maybe I'll try harder this year;)



But you know, for me Summer is all about simplicity. Get those bare feet in the sand and take a walk along the surf with someone you love.

Blouse - H&M (recent), Cardigan - J.Crew, Denim shorts - American Eagle, Cognac flats - Shoemint, Watch - Michael Kors (similar) 


This was the first time this season wearing my denim boyfriend shorts from American Eagle. I own two pairs and literally have worn them to death for the past two Summers. Need proof? (One, two,) I thought I had more than just two posts featuring them, but I guess not! Well I promise I wear them all the time. Longer shorts or midi shorts are great for casual weekends and lazy days. I personally love the way Laura wears hers (here & here). She has been inspiring me to wear shorts with unexpected pieces.  Dress them up with a blouse, blazer, and cardi. Dress them down with a flowy boho tank and sandals. Voila! Instant Summer :)
