I love a good toe-ring sandal. My beloved Mephisto Helen sandals have a toe ring and a similar shape to these, but because they’re Mephisto, they have great support and are insanely comfortable. For situations where I’m not doing a ton of walking, though, I do like a “prettier” flat sandal (yes, I’m willing to sacrifice some measure of comfort for style, but not all…).
These Chloe sandals are gorgeous, and the perfect style, but they’re $525. $525!!!!! and the moment I saw them, I knew there were other, more affordable alternatives…
But I’d rather spend my money on these Jutta Neumann sandals – they’re nearly half the price of the Chloe’s ($268) – and handmade in NYC.
Or, these beauties by Cydwoq ($246). I actually prefer the thong-style of these, I find the cris-cros styling of the Chloe to be not as flattering on my foot.
And there’s also these Mia sandals for $49.99. They’re very cute, but look a little flat…
