The heeled sandal design featured a sleek pointed-toe silhouette that elongated the foot. The embellished straps were the focal point of the design, adorned with sparkling crystals and beads that shimmered and caught the light with every step. All of these elements were set atop a towering stiletto heel, which added height and drama to the overall design.

Most recently, we have seen the “Yeah Glo” rapper taking the more cozier route when selecting from her footwear arsenal. Just yesterday, she posted a photo wearing retro Jordan 4s while having some fun with her fans at Looney Tunes CDs. She also visited the “Tamron Hall Show” last Wednesday in a pair of crisp Timberland boots. In her latest music video “Wanna Be” we find the star in an assortment of sneaker styles. Her off-duty style usually involves a pair of fly kicks.

About Strappy Sandals
Often defined by long straps that wrap around the ankle and up the leg for security, strappy sandals are a popular choice with shorter dresses and other silhouettes that showcase legs. A staple shoe of the warmer months, strappy sandals can be any heel height for versatile wear.
Dating back to ancient civilizations, strappy sandals hold a historical significance. Aquazzura, Stuart Weitzman Manolo Blahnik and Jimmy Choo have embraced the strappy sandal trend. Their varying collections over the years have showcased a diverse range of styles, from timeless elegance to contemporary flair, catering to the multifaceted preferences of footwear lovers.
