San Francisco Dairy 12 - A Market

~A Market~
Today is Saturday. It's also a sunny day...... I don't feel so good. Coz that .......... you know, each girl has that.Laura told me there is a flea market near YMCA. So we went there together.I really like flea market, but, what a pity that is not the flea market. It's just like a market which has lots of stands that came from different farms, and they gather to sell theor produce.Although it is not the flea market, i am quite a little bit of comdown. Anyway, it's still special for me.( i'm not as excited as usual.......... coz i'm sick! )




Lots of people making sunbath and eating the food what they just bought.

Gladiator Sandal Still Loitering

Gladiator Sandals Are Still Loitering...

Spring is upon us, the new season is an excellent excuse to replenish your shoe closet. After all, there’s something truly transformative about getting a fresh pair of sandals—nothing else imparts that “winter is over” feeling in quite the same way! For your viewing and shopping pleasure, here we've gathered a few choice selections that hit upon some of the season’s biggest shoe trends: animal exotics, brights, and gladiators.

2008 Spring

Animal Exotics

MICHAEL Michael Kors Logo Plate Thong ($108.95)

These snakeskin embossed leather sandals are a great neutral shoe option for spring and summer. The simple shape is nicely complimented by the subtle stud details.

MaxStudio Xian Sandal ($158.95)

Warm days and nights call for equal hot shoes, like these slingback sandals from MaxStudio. The unexpected lines of the crisscross straps are lovely and unusual.

Pour la Victoire Brie Sandal ($179.95)

As seen in today’s Who What Wear TV episode, these lizard embossed leather sandals are very in keeping with the season’s modern safari runway trends. The curved heel on this pair is particularly interesting.

Brights

BCBGirls Panthea Sandal ($88.95)

Vibrantly bright accessories are a major spring trend, so these bright orange leather sandals are a must buy. The twist detail is gorgeous too!

Marc by Marc Jacobs 683984 Slide ($455)

Who could resist the lemon yellow patent leather of these Marc by Marc Jacobs retro slides? If the cheerful color wasn’t enough, they also have a comfortable stacked heel.

Dolce Vita Adelle Sandal ($69.95)

The offerings from Dolce Vita are always fashion-forward and adorable, like these simple and beautifully bright thongs in magenta patent leather. They would add the perfect pop of color to a neutral outfit.

Gladiators

Joan & David Ninive Sandal ($154.95)

This season is all about gladiators, but that doesn’t mean you need to wear an extreme version. These understated sandals in bronze snake are an excellent way to dip into the trend.

Chie Mihara Gladiator Sandal ($395)

If you’d like a bolder version of the gladiator trend, try these platform sandals from the star Spanish shoe brand Chie Mihara. They’re a surprisingly versatile addition to any wardrobe, thanks to nude and black color palette.

Enzo Angiolini Tells Sandal ($88.95)

Our final selection is a more traditional multi-strap gladiator sandal in dark brown leather. These sandals have a classic shape and shade so you’ll surely wear them for years to come.
