Once summer is here I like to take long walks around NYC and comfortable summer sandals are a must have. But so many of the “comfort shoes” I’ve found even my grandmother would have rejected as ‘old lady’ shoes. However, I searched and rounded up some great looks for your summer that run the gamut from glitter to stretch. Try some of these on as you meander around your neighborhood. Your feet will be both stylish and comfortable. And these are all well priced at under $150.00

This Stephany Wedge sandal in a bright, pretty red is feminine, ultra comfortable and has a summery espadrille-like jute wrapped wedge.

Nic+Zoe hit the nail on the head in the style dept with the Zaila Knit Sandal. It hits all of today’s trend points – boot-as-sandal, mixed material, easy to wear heel, and will transition nicely into fall. The form fitting sandal will hug your upper foot while leaving heels and toes exposed. The genuine leather strap is soft and comfortable, and I walked two miles in them on their first wearing with no blisters! I’m loving them in black, but may have to get them in the white & tan combo as well!
