Need some coral asap

I’m really over this dreary, overcast, depressing weather we’ve been having the last few weeks.  The sun almost never comes out and and when it does, it’s not until 3 in the afternoon.  What gives, Dallas Raines??? (that’s the name of our weatherman in these parts, don’t judge, he was born with that name…maybe…)

In order to offset this sucky weather, I’ve decided to add a little color into my life, this time in the form of coral.  I’m really loving the various shades of coral right now, from the brightest pinkish corals to the subtle orangy ones.  It’s such a fun, bright color that adds a bit of sunshine to the even gloomiest of days.

Now that it’s officially summer, I’ve been searching for sandals to match my bright and punchy coral toe nails.

I like a sandal that’s chic enough for parties, yet at the same time it needs to be durable enough to withstand a trek through the city.  Maybe that’s why I’m loving these hybrid sandal-shoes?  The shape is distinctly sandal-esque yet the laces are clearly products of a shoe.  Confusing yet oh so delightful!

I love finding unexpected twists to something as simple as a sandal.  These lace-up versions have just the right amount of originality and newness for my taste.

The only problem now is finding my favorite out of the above options!  Which one is your favorite?
