Everyone needs a pair of basic gold flats for spring & summer like these simple yet attention grabbing Michael Kors ID Tag Thongs.  They are great for dressing down a skirt or dress if need be.  I love sandals with ankle straps because I feel more secure that my footware won’t slip off easily, but they have basically the same comfort as flip flips. 

Michael Kors ID Tag Thong Sandals: $296.00 (was $395)

I know these shoes, I love these shoes, I own these shoes. And now they’re on sale. These ‘Belinda’ sandals from the Michael Kors’ MICHAEL line are so amazingly cute and comfy, that I’m not even sad that I bought them at full price. I can’t even imagine what my summer wardrobe would have been without them.

I walked in those things for hours when I was in Mexico City, and I swear on my luggage that they did not hurt a bit. The thick ankle straps keep your foot in place, so there’s no embarrassing mishaps that platform are wont to cause. They’re very Dr. Scholls only sexier, and if you get them you’ll wish you had a dollar for every compliment you get. They look especially good with shorts.

Old Price= $122.95, New Price= $110.66 at Zappos, and you get free overnight shipping to boot.

MICHAEL Michael Kors , $119.65

Huaraches never go out of style, and every summer designers give the classic shoe a new twist. This year, they’re once again an inspiration, and they’re taking off in new and fashionable directions. They’ve been transformed into wedges, platforms and multicolored flats, so they can be mixed with dresses, skirts, jeans and shorts. Really, anything goes with these sandals. Ole!

Mia ‘Aztec’, $44.99

Tribeca ‘Liberty Bell Sandal’, $55.99

Enzo Angiolini ‘Berrin’, $92.95

I love a good flip flop as much as the next girl, but I get sick of watching the whole world pad around in rubber shoes every summer day. Might I suggest a dressed up version, the slingback thong sandal, perhaps? Thongs are just as comfortable as your favorite flip flops, but they pack way more style and you can probably get away with them at work.
