To the people at Who What Wear and Banana Republic:

Thank you for bringing me back to earth and helping me find sandals that I can actually buy without having to skip out on my mortgage payment!

Here are my favorites from what they are suggesting/offering:

Jamestown Flatform Two Part espadrille – ASOS – USD$33

Printed sandals – Zara – CAD$36

Espadrilles sandals – Soludos – USD$48

Lace-up sandal – Old Navy – CAD$30

Aleah sandal – Banana Republic – CAD$98

So Habibi, you can now breathe easy: the Aquazzura flats I’ve been losing sleep over will remain wishes.

for now.
