Next to diamonds, shoes are a girl’s best friend. I am really loving flats this season but heels will always be number one in my life. There are so many choices out there for flats this year that you do not have to sacrifice comfort for style. Here are my picks of the spring and summer. You need at least three of these shoes in your closet. 1. Boston Proper Crystal Snakeskin Thong Sandals, $159
Bling for your feet and save your sole in these gorgeous bejeweled snakeskin thong sandals. These sandals are great for the flirty spring and summer dresses as well as lounging on the boat with a nice glass of wine in your hand. You can dress up your night time look in these jewel sandals.

2. Maison Martin Margiela Sandal Ankle Bootie, $595
Hellooooo nurse! Here is a take on the conventional bootie. Dress up shorts and a button down shirt in ankle bootie sandals by Maison Martin Margiela. These shoes are for the leggy girl looking to up the ante. A fresh pedi is a must for one of the season’s hottest shoes.
3. L.A.M.B Crisscross Woven Sandal, $325

Weave a spell of seduction in this woven L.A.M.B crisscross sandal. The metallic green adds a splash of color for DVF dresses, pencil skirts and jeans. The crisscross is low enough on the ankle that you will look tall and leggy in this mouthwatering green sandal.

4. Diane von Furstenberg Love Knot Thong Sandal, $265
He loves me, he loves me knot. He loves me, he loves me knot. In this case, he (whoever that might be) loves me lots to be in enough love knots to give me these metallic DVF beauties. Go for the gold in one of the cutest flats this year. These sandals will be perfect for a DVF maxi dress.

5. DOLCE VITA Bermuda-40 Sandals, $93
What I love about this sandal thong is the closed heel. Live the sweet life in these Dolce Vita Bermuda sandals.

6. Franco Sarto Maximum, $79:
Maximum points are officially awarded to this studded Franco Sarto Maximum thong sandal. It’s the year of the Olympics so go for the gold in this studded sandal. This sandal is perfect for a white flowy skirt, a white tank and a nice pashmina for the cool spring and summer nights.


7. Lauren by Ralph Lauren Beth, $120
You will be entertained in these Ralph Lauren Gladiator sandals. Step out in one of the most trendy must haves of the season. You might not be Russell Crowe – thank God for that – but you can act tough in gladiators. What would look really chic with this shoe is a cute short sleeved cotton mini dress or a white shirt dress with a thin belt.

8. Charles by Charles David Damsel, $86.99
Billy Holiday might be the lady that sings the blues; however, you my dear, are the lady that dances in blue shoes. They might not be suede but these blue Charles by Charles David Damsel peep toe d’orsay style pumps are a must have for the season. What better way to bring some color into your wardrobe than with blue shoes. Your friends will be green with envy and blue because they didn’t get one of these.

9. Christian Louboutin Feather Ankle-Wrap d’Orsay, $760
You know I had to have at least one Christian Loub in this list. Be the lady in red in this sexy feather ankle wrap d’orsay pump. Red is a power color ladies so strut your stuff in style with Mr. Louboutin. A little black dress, gold accessories and a black clutch will complete the look.
