Gladiator Sandals for Larger Feet

Sooo… the new sandals seem to all be gladiator style, which is so fine by me. I actually don’t have a single pair of sandals, largely due to my hatred of flip-flops and my inability to find another style I like.

Now that I’ve stocked up on vintage dresses, I’ll certainly need a nice pair of summer sandals. Fortunately, Barefoot Tess has an abundance of sandals in sizes up to 14 (for these styles). My absolute favorites are all by Matt Bernson and, of course, are all a bit too expensive for me. I considered these lovelies:

They’re all strappy and could easily swing both casual and more dressy. I think straps on sandals also make your feet look smaller, could just be wishful thinking though, ha!
In the end, I did buy a pair. These blue beauties! I’ve been dying for a pair of blue shoes and these have the nice balance of strappy gladiator-ness without looking like you should be holding a spear. They just arrived today and, honestly, are pretty much perfect. Once the weather warms up and I actually get to wear them, I’ll post some pics.
