The Strappy Sandal that Could

April showers bring May flowers…and the Stuart Weitzman Nudist Sandal? Originally popping up all over the Spring ’14 runways, this strappy shoe has become a sweet summer sensation. It seems that everywhere you turn, celebs are wiggling their toes into Mr. Weitzman’s creation. Commonly referred to as the “Nudist” sandal, the shoes might appear subtle, but boy do they pack a punch. Taylor Schilling, for instance, accessorized her white 2013 Emmy’s gown with a pair of golden Weitzman heels. Even Queen B swears by them, claiming the style as her performance footwear of choice. So what factors contribute to the shoe’s must-have reputation? For starters, the 5-inch heel, produced in eight glamorous shades, wondrously makes legs appear longer and leaner. Even more, with such a minimalist feel, the sandals allow for the easiest of transitions from cocktail to casual. So what’s holding you back? Splurge a little—we have a feeling this sandal is here to stay.
