Springing Forward to Spring Sandals

March 13, 2024

It's warming up here in North Carolina, and I'm already pining after some new sandals to pair with my jeans and — hopefully soon — my favorite swimsuits.

For me, comfort is key. My feet hurt without shoes, so I love wearing sandals around the house. A comfy pair of slides is always going to be a go-to for me!

I'm seeing some fun sandal trends toward minimalism with just a simple T-strap or ties. This style gives off that light and airy Mediterranean coast feel. Strappy leather sandals are so fresh with the clean lines.

I'm also loving some blingy hardware on sandals with weighty buckles and horse-bits that feel very old-world, yet the chunky soles make them feel up-to-date. Just a little bit edgy in a fun way.

You can't go wrong with any of the picks in this round-up. I have my eye on these gold lace-up sandals and these platform sandals from Madewell for this spring!

But, still, almost daily, I get asked "Why don't you paint that ceiling the color of the walls?" If you've never tried painting a ceiling and you're considering […]

Thai-Inspired Basil Beef Stir Fry

I'm back at it today with the Asian-inspired flavors. I always seem to lean that way in my recipes, but why would I use less flavor when I can fill my kitchen with the scent of ginger, garlic, and chilies?! Thai Basil Beef is one of my all-time favorite things to order for takeout. What […]
