Maven Alert: Soludos Low Cut Espadrille

Good morning, Monday...it's Tax Day in America and man if it doesn't just bring its own kind of gloom to the equation, despite the balmy temps and glorious sun this weekend.  Though many of us may not be in a super spendy mood, there's surely some of you W2 types out there who may even be getting some money back- IMAGINE THAT.

Still, it's a mind your P's and Q's kind of day so here's something to buy that won't break the bank- a new pair of Soludos espadrilles for Spring. And though the Ikat patterned pair is under $50, my fav pair hands down is the low cut raffia ones- adorable beyond belief but slightly more spendy at $65. Love the new shape and feeling like these are super streamlined and casual in all the right ways. I bought a pair at the Miami airport last week (there is the cutest store in the AA terminal there- they sell great beachy cover ups by local Debbie Katz, Calypso and Kai perfume, and great items like espadrilles). Yes, I know buying things in the airport is weird, but can you think of something better to do when your plane is delayed for two hours? Didn't think so...I bought them in black and green, but they also come in black and orange, black and white, and black and yellow. And since green is the color of money, my purchase was right in sync with today's festivities.

Anyway, these are so cute and don't you just love the translation of the brand's name? Cheers to the sun, indeed. And cheers to buying an essential this April 15th as the tax man cometh. At under $100, you should still have plenty of room to negotiate with the IRS while rocking your new fav pair of shoes for Spring. Cause that's what's up this here comes the sun despite government collections kind of Monday. Oh the cuteness. XO
