Happy Thursday Readers,
Hope your summer is going well! I’ve been writing, editing, and getting caught up on book reviews but never fear because The Weekly Fashionista is baaaaaaaack!!!
And boy do I have a ton of summer fun posts for you 🙂

It took a year but welcome back to Sunglasses & Sandals (S^2) for part 2: Sandals! (read Part 1: Sunglasses)
Sandals…a summertime necessity. As the American Actress, Zoe Saldana once said, “I don’t like things like little sandals that look fragile. I like to look strong and commanding.” It is with this in mind, I write this post.
Sandals are the ultimate statement “accessory”. And for the purpose of this post, I’m going to widen the definition of sandals and include wedges as well as many types of open-toed “sandal-like” shoes (even though I know some of you don’t consider those to be sandals).
The Wedge
A perfect choice to dress up any outfit, they’re especially good for graduation(s) (heels on grass/bleachers…no thank you!) or even those new jeans!
Patterned –
Add a little spice to your look with these patterned wedges,
a perfect way to dress up a casual outfit.

Solids – Simplify your life with a solid wedge…
and they can really brighten up your wardrobe.solids are great because they go with almost everything
For instance,
check out this solid wedge from Forever 21,
it’s coral (one of the colors of the season)
& it’s only $29.80!
Flats
Flats can be a wonderful way to relax while still looking cute. I can’t stand when my foot slides around in shoes so I’ve picked out some of my favorite flats that while thin are still supportive.
Try the Southwestern Thong Sandals ($14.80) from Forever 21, pictured left.
or
This Sam Edelman ‘Gabrianna’ Sandal ($129.95 Nordstrom),
for a comfortable yet cool (very detailed beading patterns) fit!
What are your favorite summer sandal choices???
Whimsically Yours,
PnC
