Ankle Straps

January 30, 2013

Ankle straps are having a moment. Ok, maybe they have been but I’ve finally jumped on the bandwagon and regret not doing so sooner. Old style rumors say that they can make your legs look shorter and are not as flattering but I disagree; worn in a good fit for your leg/ankle, not only they do they have some serious sex appeal, they are also ultra comfortable. They’re way more stable and eliminate worry about your heel popping out. Win! When trying on a pair, be sure to walk on floor (not just carpet) to ensure a comfortable fit and that it’s not too constricting around your ankle, both for comfort factor and look.

Here’s a few favorite finds, under $100 each, to take you stylishly into the spring:

    I only have a few pairs with ankle straps, but they’re definitely some of my most comfortable pairs! Love the zara and chinese laundry ones you shared.

    I think they are sexy too! I have always bought them because I have foot problems and I’m not supposed to wear heels any more. The ankle straps add the stability that I need to be able to sneak a pair. I love the entire 4th row and the 1st pair with the pointy toes are to die for.
