While it’s quickly turning into flip-flop nation around the office, I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate the warm weather than in a pair of open toe sandals. But not just any pair … Reed Krakoff’s sandal from spring 2012. It juxtaposes utility with femininity. With hard architectural lines, it’s contemporary art – a look of sophistication, with unparalleled attention to details. The 4” cut out block heel creates a magical illusion finished with a t-pin hardware closure. This go-to sandal is a masterpiece of design.
