Whenever I find a new adventure shoe I begin to obsess. I love easy sandals and slides that are just as comfy as they look. When I’m “off duty,” I really can’t slide my feet into anything else. Shoes that can easily take me all over the world. I just discovered Sanuk. The brand’s simple silhouettes have the ability to be styled in every single way. You can count on their quality and comfort. They’re the only sandals I packed for my work trip in the beautiful city of Vancouver. Perfect with a 70’s inspired denim mini and some statement sunglasses for breakfast in the Gaslamp district. Flat shoes are sometimes more effortlessly chic than any heel. Especially when I’m exploring a new city. And trying too hard is so out this season. I don’t have to try with this pair and so they will stay with me all summer.

Shop them at Sanuk.

There is still nothing more classic than a black patent loafer. M. Gemi shoes from Italy make some of the best flats. Simplicity at it’s finest. Luckily in California, I can go barelegged to the next holiday party. These shoes are something I can wear to the airport, and immediately step into a meeting once I hop off the plane. They’re my sophisticated go-to shoes that are timeless and will never go out of style. Next to the perfect M. Gemi “stellato” black flat, I love a striped turtleneck, and suede shift dress. A little bit Jane Birkin minimalism with a swipe of your favorite nude lipstick. Now that’s the way to go.
