As old as the way to Rome

The gladiators used to wear them up unto their knees for protection. Roman senates were recognisable because of their four straps. I choose to go for something in between. Fancy sandals ( I’m in love with the ones from Louis Vuitton) makes the total difference at the beach. You don’t have many things to shine with so go all out with those sandals. You’ll enjoy them all summer.
