This spring, sizzle in these chic pairs with an interesting mix of materials. From Africa to Paris, these jeweled numbers sure have a charm of a world traveler making them must-haves this season!

DSQUARED2 One Band Rope Tie Sandals

Only the DSQUARED twins Dean and Dan Caten can get away with such a creation with panache. The rope detail, the blue nubuck, the color blocking, the platform, the bead decoration. They may all seem too much to handle, but not for the design duo! Such a concoction is so signature of their label. This, is what I call a statement piece.

Frye Bridget Ornament T Strap Sandals

The wood, cork, rafia, and the ornaments on the vamp all blend in with this summer must-have. The eclectic mix of materials makes this pair unique, at the same time easy to use as it is in the earthy neutral shade. Comfort is an added value too!

Antik Batik Clami Suede Sandals with Paillettes

Who says dainty adornments and wood don’t mix? Not Antik Batik designer Gabrielle Cortese. She’s a genius in putting together wood, intricately sewn jewels, and suede. Although I find the height of this a bit low, its still a beautiful pair nonetheless.

Beverly Feldman Dolcetto Wedge

This sure looks like a fun pair to have this summer. The contrast of the rafia covered wedge and platform against the crisp white leather with the colorful stones and studs is a refreshing break. It’s like a cross between Marrakesh and Nice. Two totally different summer destinations but when inspirations are married, this is what you get.

Frye Dolly Jeweled T Strap Sandals

Such a pair signals the coming of summer. The dark jewels are set nicely on the cognac colored leather. It has a tribal air with a hint of adventure to it. Perfect with those white summer dresses we love to don during this time of the year.
