Our love affair with women's sandals continues unabated, as every seasonal designer collection, from couture to high street favourite, incorporates sandals for all seasons, in a dizzying array of colours, materials and designs. For the past couple of years, gladiator sandals have been a huge favourite with the fashion pack - inspired by the gorgeous Grecian trends in the clothing ranges. Metallics have also been a key trend, with gold, pewter and silver sandals gracing both catwalk and pavement. The great thing about ladies' sandals is their versatility. A classic delicate sandal will take you from beach to evening bar without needing to change. Teamed with a pedicure, sandals show off a summer tan and work as well with floaty maxi dresses as they do with boyfriend jeans.
