The boogie sandal is not only the perfect transitional shoe (be it from winter to spring, or day to night), but also the most striking way to stay stable on your toes. Though dainty little ankle straps are nice and pretty, most days you want something more supportive, and with the cool factor these chunkier options provide, there’s just no reason to say no.
Maison Martin Margiela 22 Ankle Boots: For once, Margiela shows some restraint and reason, and surprisingly enough, the sleek look is just as lust-worthy as the crazier designs. On shoescribe.com for $938.
McQ Alexander McQueen Croc-Effect Leather Sandals: Here you get that ladylike ankle strap I was talking about, plus additional stability (and croc-effect to boot!). It’s the best of both worlds. On NET-A-PORTER for $630.
Camilla Skovgaard 30MM Metallic Leather Sandals: As always, the Danish designer’s shoes are on the avant-garde side. This is the kind of golden sandal you’d expect to adorn a god or goddess. At Luisa via Roma for $841.
Rick Owens Spike Sandal Bootie: Part bootie, part sandal; part smooth leather, part suede…Rick Owens never takes the beaten path, and that’s exactly what makes these so desirable. That and the more than 50% off price tag! On Forward by Elyse Walker for $547 (from $1,188).
