Originality Please

OK, is it just me or are everyone and their moms wearing T-strap sandals these days? I mean seriously, I just don't get the wow factor, not even on a comfort level. There are so many other cute sandal styles out there, yet everywhere I look the T-strap is there, following me on my quest for new summer sandals. And I'm sorry to say, but an overly exposed foot is just not that cute. You might as well just go all the way and stroll around town barefoot like my "different" neighbor next door (please don't). Not to mention, EVERYONE is wearing them, so why oh why would you not opt for another cute, comfy and ORIGINAL style? Mind boggling. OK fine, it's not that serious. BUT still. OK, how about this: I issue you a challenge, that the next pair of sandals you purchase be something other than a T-strap. I believe in you. And go!

Some cute non T-straps for inspiration...
