I am always on the lookout for cute and comfortable shoes, especially when they can be both dressed up or down. These sandals have a block heel, so they can be worn with more formal outfits as well. I really love that the heel is made from wood and you can see the grain, adding an extra bit of detail. The heel height is perfect, not too tall so they are comfortable, but just enough to be considered a heel. The front strap is made of braided crisscrossed leather and their is an adjustable buckled ankle strap. These run pretty true to size, maybe a tad on the bigger size. Overall, these are a good and comfortable option for dressing up this summer.
