Spring Shoe Trend – Utility Chic Metallic Sandals

Posted on 19 March 2010 by Angelique

One of this season’s hottest trends is utility chic. Think slim cargo pants, fitted work shirts, and leather messenger bags in shades of olive, khaki and gray. On your feet metallic sandals are the perfect complement to a utility chic ensemble. Whether you are a high-heeled girl or prefer to wear pretty flats, there are many options for metallic shoes this spring. We’ve rounded up our favorite for you to browse. It’s time to “forward march” into springtime dressing!

A gladiator is the perfect complement to this season’s skinny cargo pant. A flat sandal like Vince Camuto’s Bach (upper left, $119.95 – this and all shoes from Shoebuy.com). This fashion forward style has a covered ankle and oval gunmetal grey buckle detail. A statement making sandal, the Jessica Simpson Koolia (upper right, $88.95) features a stacked platform heel with wide gold metallic straps. Up the front is a zip closure with stud detail, peep toe and tapered heel. A gladiator is on this season’s must-buy list. The BCBGirls “Peter” (bottom left, $55.45) is an affordable and stylish gold metallic gladiator sandal. It is accented with coins and has an adjustable ankle strap. Another style from Jessica Simpson is the “Scilla” which features a high heel and pewter distressed suede metallic finish (right, $73.95). This ankle strap design includes a tie lace at front and wide banded straps.
