THE NEW NEUTRAL

Every Spring, I get customer after customer coming into the store with one common goal: to find that PERFECT sandal that will go with everything in their warm weather wardrobe. The perfect sandal means something to everyone. Some people like a low heel, some people want it super strappy, but what everyone can agree on is that they want it to be versatile.

This season, I'm seeing one major trend in all our Spring shoes. METALLICS! When most people think neutral colors their mind immediately goes to shades of brown and black, but I am here to convince you that a sparkly metallic sandal can go with just as much as your favorite black pair.

Here's how I'm wearing my favorite of this season's sparkly-est sandals and flats:

1. Miz Mooz "Cali" in pewter
This Miz Mooz may be super versatile, but it is anything but ordinary! The two tone look matches with any outfit, but the unique ankle strap makes a bold statement. Pair with relaxed skinny jeans and a basic blouse.

2. Sam Edelman"Gigi" in gold

I'm always excited when I see a new color in the Gigi, and this gold is easily my new favorite. A sandal this chic is easy to dress up, or down. Here I dress it down with a Free People tunic and a Michael Stars fedora (come pick up the hat in Eugene!).

3. Korkease "Rebecca" in bronze

Korkease may have just made the perfect sandal. Super comfortable, and incredibly stylish. You don't need much to look put together with this shoe. A simple dress and some lipstick and you're unstoppable.

4. Sam Edelman "Lynn" in silver

Nothing says Spring like an espadrille, but the bright silver on this Sam Edelman keeps it from being ordinary. Pair with white shorts, add a pop of color with a fun bag, and just add sunshine!
