Actually, here in NC we aren’t exactly “Springin’ into Spring!” Check out our weather report for tomorrow:

Is it gonna S-N-O-W?

There is nothing better to will in spring-time weather than shopping for sandals. Here are a few of my favorite picks for spring/summer ‘09:

Tribals

Think fringe, suede, tribal patterns, turquoise, and predominant stitching. This is not my all-time favorite style, but I think they can look cute when worn the right way.

Sam Edelman - On Sale $104

Kenneth Cole Reaction - $79

Madden Girl - $49.90

Wanted (@ Delias) - $39.50

Metallics

I wore my last pair of metallic sandals to DEATH (seriously, they finally fell apart in several pieces), so I will definitely be purchasing a new pair this year. My favorites are the COACH pair below, but I can’t justify spending that much for a few straps of leather. They sure are gorgeous though!

Steve Madden Sarahh - $39.90

Kenneth Cole Reaction - $79

Coach Sierra Sandal - $188

Enzo Angiolini - $59.90

Steve Madden Venecin - $59.95

Gladiators/Huaraches

Keep in mind straps, straps, and more straps. I really like the gladiator style, I think they can be tres sexy, but remember if you have thicker legs or ankles to stay away from the ones with ankle straps!

Janelle High Heel Galdiator - BR - $140

Chinese Laundry Reptile Galdiator - $49.50

JONES NY - $49.95

Banana Republic Huaraches - $140

Chunky Heels/Wedges

Old Navy - $19.50

Nine West - $89

BCBG - $98

Kenneth Cole - $89
