Coachella and music festival season nearly upon us! It’s not only time to start thinking about dressing the part in the must have boho chic rompers, tops, skirts, dresses (be sure to check out my recent post for Coachella fashion must haves and accessories) floral head wraps, hats and turbans, but shoes! With Coachella taking place in the desert, you not only want to be on trend, but comfortable and not burning up. We’ve all heard that Birkenstocks are all the rage this season, but I’m always all about the gladiator sandal! It’s still one of my favorite trends, and definitely something you can wear with every fashion forward piece you own! Here are a few flat sandals and gladiator sandals that are definitely on my list…not just for Coachella but the entire season!!! PS Don’t forget the Chuck Taylor’s if you’ll be heading to the front of the stage, you don’t want to get stepped on.
PS: This post was originally shared in April 2014! I updated it in 2018, and shared a few of the top gladiator sandals that are currently available in the “Shop The Post” widget at the bottom of the blog post. All you have to do is click on an image in the widget and it will take you directly to the retailer’s website. It’s really easy to use! If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to contact me, I’m happy to help!
