I’m usually not a particularly girly dresser, but in the springtime I start getting misty-eyed over all things flowery and bright. This season, I love the idea of an uber-feminine sandal complete with a pretty bow…especially paired with comfortable, neutral separates like a pair of cropped black jeans and a striped t-shirt. The look is simple and chic, retro and timeless: just add a polished ponytail and a pair of hoops or a bangle on one wrist, and you’re ready for anything.
Some of my favorite picks (I bought the Nine West pair pictured below in black):
Clockwise from far left: Ann Taylor ($198), Nine West ($69), Asos ($37), Asos ($34), Vivienne Westwood ($185), Alexander McQueen ($335), Mulberry ($230).
