I knnnnnnooooooowwwwwwww. Sandals?! It really is not the time for them. And yet, it is. It is not fall yet. Now is a good time to stock up (or stalk up, whichever creep level you feel is appropriate when pricing out shoes) on sandals for the spring and summer of 2015. Almost all of the sandals I have seen in stores are now on sale. I purchased so many boots on sale last winter that now I only need a black pair to complete my collection. Shopping between the seasons is the best way to accumulate items for a wardrobe on a budget.
I picked up these Julianna Hough Teresa Sandals two weeks ago for $25 (regular price is $60. Link goes to a different site, in case you do not live near a Nordstrom Rack. The link price is a little more).
I loved the eyelet design on the back. They are sweet and comfortable. I like the color, too. I purchased mine in a pretty beige color that reminds me of my favorite tall gladiator sandals. Here is a peek at an outfit post coming up with these shoes. They go with so many items in my closet. I have a very high arch and I was scared that the high back of the sandal would rub on my ankle, but they surprisingly do not. I took my regular 7.5 shoe size. They have a zipper in the back making them easy to get on and off without messing with any buckles.
I also purchased them in this lovely brown color for my daughter. They came in a pretty black color, too. My sister came over to my house and tried my sandals on. She was going to go and get some herself. I hope she did (did you Mandi?). Nordstrom Rack had a lot of them in stock just last week.
Did you know Julianne Hough made shoes? At first I was incredulous, thinking that she could not possibly make comfortable shoes. She is a dancer. A beautiful, beautiful dancer. I wanted her to stay in her perfect little box that society or myself had put her in and perfectly dance away. Barefoot. But I tried them on. Swallowed my inner envy that the girl can do anything. And I am now happily walking around town in them. Maybe even spinning. Just a little.
With only a bit of jealousy to my step.
You can barely see the green envy of my sole.
Just don’t look too closely.
You know, I forgot all about it! Double darn. I was having such a good time visiting that I forgot all about squeezing my hobbit feet into your shoes when I first got to your house. 🙂 But Jon and I don’t have plans before the Blake Shelton concert tonight so we’ll go over today to see if they have any left. I hope they do. They were super cute and very surprisingly comfy. Love you!! Xoxox
P.S. I had wanted Julianne Hough to marry Ryan Seacrest. Totally off topic, but they were super cute together….
Did you end up getting some? I hope you had fun at your concert! I never wanted them to marry. Not a huge fan of his. ; ). Not like Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling. Sigh. I really wanted them to make it. : )
Sweet dreams! I love you!

the detail on those shoes is so sweet. Maybe the fact that Julianne Hough is a dancer has something to do with the fact that they are so comfortable!
Thank you Cynthia. I think you are right. I think she definitely knows feet and shoes. : )
Have sweet dreams tonight!

I love those sandals. I always seem to buy off season. It is always the best deals. I just bought a pair of nude sandals from Macy’s for like 80% off. I am set for sandals, though. I can’t wear them much longer. Like you, I am searching for some boots. I need tall boots badly. I will just have to bite the bullet and pay more for them, I think.
Thank you Alicia! I wonder if they are the same sandals my friend just got at Macy’s. They are so cute. And she only paid $14! I am not buying any boots until the end of the winter season. I really need a black pair, but I have so many other pairs of brown boots, I can hold off. Let me know what you get! I will live vicariously through you! : ). I bought too much in August. So now I am sitting back. It is fun getting to see what other people get and shop my closet. I wore my Rio Dress in black tonight.
Have a lovely week!
