One Sandal Three Ways

2-minute read

You don't need an occasion to wear a heel.

Sometimes you just want to add some height, elongate your leg line, or feel a bit sassier than you do in a flat.

We love experimenting with ways to style our shoes, so we thought we would challenge ourselves to make our most evening wear-ready flat feel a little more paired down and casual.

The Victoria Heeled Sandal packs a sartorial punch. It takes a cue from Ballroom Dancing shoes with a bit of Gladiator Sandal edginess. And of course, it looks great styled with a cocktail dress or formal attire, but it would be a shame to limit such a great shoe to weddings and nighttime galas. Check out how we styled this sandal for daytime wear.

When your heels are this comfortable, you can wear them everyday. The padded Memory Foam insoles keep your feet from needing a break, and the walkable block heel won't get in the way of checking off your to-do list.

Style Note:

Dress it down with a pair of light-wash denim and summery blouse. Paired with our Market Tote, you'll surely be the best-dressed person at the produce stand.

The Victoria Sandal can add a bit of drama to your off-the-clock wardrobe. The flirty and feminine styling is the perfect upgrade to your favourite patio party pieces.

Style Note:

Think outside the dress. A silk jumpsuit is a fun alternative to classic cocktail attire. Try a cropped leg design to show off the criss-cross ankle straps on The Victoria.

Belt Measuring Guide

Belt Measuring Guide

A - High-rise style:

If you plan to wear your belt around your natural waistline, wrap a measuring tape around the narrowest part of your midsection. Then, add 3” to determine your high-rise belt size.

B - Mid-rise style:

If you plan to wear your belt lower than your natural waistline, you will require a dierent size. If you have a particular pair of bottoms you intend to wear your belt with, wrap a measuring tape through the belt loops while in a relaxed position.

When wearing your belt in your preferred style, it should fasten in the middle hole. The belt will relax with wear allowing you to cinch it tighter, as needed.

If you plan to wear the belt in both the high and mid-rise styles, you have two options:

  1. Select your high-rise style and fasten it more loosely when worn in the mid-rise style.
  2. Select your mid-rise style and fasten it more tightly when worn in the high-rise style.
