Being in phase III of my shopping cleanse, I bought a pair of Bourgeois Chic sandals over the weekend. Now, I love an espadrille – it’s a chic summer classic that never gets old. But something else really drew these sandals to me (aside from the glitter). It was the allure of the lifestyle that I envisioned for them – jetsetting to fabulous tropical locations, wearing breezy clothing – being all at once chic and totally relaxed. Hanging out on the Côte d’Azur right after the madness of Cannes has ended, or having brunch on a yacht elsewhere in the Mediterranean. This isn’t my life – yet, but in the meantime I still have plans for these sandals.
Easy summer traveling, brunches, or errands around the city:
The most important aspects to both of these looks is to keep the basic outfit in neutral tones and naturally-occurring colors while using the accessories to accentuate and define the character of the ensemble. I can’t wait to go into my own closet and use these espadrilles to channel my inner Mediterranean jetsetter.
