Happy Monday loves!  It always feels so good to kick the week off with fresh inpsiration via a look I'm coveting.  Today that look is none other than the much loved gladiator.  This style sandal hit the ground a couple of years ago and has been steadily gaining notoriety among the fashion set.  I recently purchased this pair from Topshop.  I love the neutral color and pop of gold detail on the heel.  The soft suede finish gives a little boho-chic feel to them and they are comfy enough to let me spend the day walking cobblestone streets and window shopping with my love.  I've also spotted several other great pairs in my recent travels.  A recent trip to J.Crew led me to discover this fresh pair in this gorgeous vintage champagne color.  So great with chambray, white, bright pops and the oh-so-hot right now geo-prints.  The look is not exclusive to casual days and flat styles.  Flirty skirts and cargo crops can also get dressed up with the heel version of this lovely lace-up.  These Carmen fringe sandals would make the perfect Saturday night shoe.  I would pair them with a boho-feeling sundress in a great midi length that gives just enough length to show them off.
