What Sexy Sandals Stand For
Sexy sandals are a big portion of why summers are so "smokin' hot." They're the symbols of frivolity and the sultry sex appeal you only find in the hottest clubs in Miami on a sweltering evening, where music's pumping as hard as your heart, and the moonlight's making everyone glow. Sexy sandals give you the opportunity to show off your hot pink, coral, or French pedicure. They let you flaunt your glistening gams in a mini skirt because they complement them so well.
The Good News
Sexy sandals can be found in high-end department stores, as well as the less expensive retailers. Check out stores like Shoe Pavillion, Shoe Carnival, and [1] for some great finds at low prices. Besides, you'll want to throw them out and start over next summer, right? Half the fun of summer is shopping for new, fashionable clothes, shoes and more!. And that means it's time to find yourself some sexy sandals--pronto!
Here are a few inexpensive pairs to check out:
- The Gabriella Rocha Elan from Zappos.com
- The Pleaser USA Fresh-36 is a pale pink shoe with a stiletto heel to die for.
- If you like a lower heel, try the dollhouse Pauline. It's still a perfect example from the world of sexy sandals, but easier--and most likely, more comfortable--to walk in.
For Those With Expensive Tastes
For those of you who like designer shoes more than anything on the planet, here are a few top picks:
- The Hollywould Women's Monroe is a beautiful, metallic silver leather stiletto that could easily be worn with a formal gown or a dressy-casual outfit.
- You can feel like a princess in the Givenchy leather and crystal sandals.

What Makes a Sandal Sexy, Anyway?
You do, of course! Ok, that doesn't count for all sandals because there are some horrible ones out there that even a Victoria's Secret model couldn't make look good. However, in most cases, a sandal isn't sexy until there's a confident woman standing inside. Other things that make sandals to die for sexy:
- Heels: In many cases, the sexiest sandals are stilettos. Other hot heels are kitten heels and wedges. Clunky heels on chunky shoes--not so much.
- Straps: The strappier, the better. You get bonus points if there are straps or ribbons dancing up your calves. They add a feminine, graceful feel to the shoe, and can make them look a bit more dangerous at the same time (in the case of black leather, for example).
- Fit: If your toes are hanging off the front of the shoe, or your heel's trying to escape from the back, the sexy sandals are no longer sexy. They tell everyone you're trying too hard to fit into a size too small because of vanity issues or because they didn't have your size and you really wanted this style. It doesn't work, ladies. Just move on to the next rack.
- Well manicured nails inside: A pedicure is a necessity during the season of sexy sandals. Scrub those heels and trim and paint those toenails. Hot colors for spring are pastels like baby pink and lilac. Colors great for summer include metallics like bronze and gold, neon pink, vibrant coral, and even a pale nude.
