Spotted on celebrities and revived by the trendsetting fashion houses, gladiator sandals were all the rage the last few sunny seasons, and they are bound to be the same this spring and summer. Personally, it took me a minute to really, really like them but browsing along the inter-shopping-sphere and window-buying my way into no-money-land, I found these: Chloe’s Paddington Buckle Gladiator Sandal… and all I can say is “sign me up!” If there were a Rome-inspired battle arena where gladiator sandals fought “TO THE DEATH”, these Chloe Paddington Buckle’s would win the gladiator’s wooden sword of freedom. In an effotrlessly stylish shade of nude, these sandals are made in Italy with pebble grain leather and artisan detail stitching. In an ultimate feat of casual luxury, wear them with cropped linen pants. Perfect your sunshine-y vacation along the coastline or for the most care-free and comfortable of spring shopping days in the city. Wear your gladiator sandals with a flowy maxi-skirt, like Ella Moss’ Rugby Stripe. Even with the cutest denim shorts, rolled up khakis, or cargo skinnies, one really can’t go wrong!
