Sophia Webster Rio Sunset printed matte-satin sandals

Rio Sunset shoes

Sophia Webster ‘Rio Sunset’, $485

This is my second Sophia Webster pick of the week, and, as with the last pair I showed you, I’m sure you can see why these had to be featured! Ordinarily, shoes with a sunset print just wouldn’t appeal to me at all: in fact, I’d probably find them too tacky for words. Somehow, though, these just work, and I think they’re rather fabulous, in a typically OTT kind of way. It’s like, if the tacky souvenir shops you find in tourists towns ever decided to start making designer shoes, these are the ones they’d pick.

Are these the shoes YOU’D pick, though? Again, they’re not nearly versatile enough for me to justify the price, and even if they were cheaper, they’re a little too close to “novelty shoes” to be something I’d actually wear, and yet despite all of this, I find I just can’t NOT like them.

Anyone else feel like that? What do you think of these?

I am a huge memento person but I hate tacky souvenirs so usually I just OD on postcards, but this is PERFECT!!! I am mildly obsessed with the concept now.
