I’m a big fan of girly shoes, and I absolutely love anything with embellishments. That’s why I’m so excited to find some great new sandals from some of my favorite brands that all have jewels and/or beads. Take a look at some of these gorgeous styles:

Kalso Earth Women’s Enchant – Even a shoe with a negative heel can have a dressy appearance when you add jewels! I really enjoy the different colors and shapes of the jewels on the full-grain leather upper. You’ll love how these shoes make your body feel, as they help you improve your posture and help reduce joint stress.

Clarks has several models that are adorned with jewels and beads: the Poster Tulip, the Brisk Rosebud, and the Latin Circle. The Poster Tulip is a lovely, casual sandal that you can dress up based on what you wear. The Brisk Rosebud has thicker straps, but also contains some beads and sparkly jewels that are fun to wear all summer long. If you’re a flip flop fan, take a look at the Latin Circle. The beautiful beading makes this one of the most striking flip flops you’ll ever see. Comfort is also key with Clarks shoes; the OrthoLite® foam footbed, soft leather uppers, and flexible rubber outsoles make these shoes an outstanding investment.

Another really adorable flip flop is Orthaheel’s Carla. You really can’t beat the support that Orthaheel products provide, and you can rest assured that the styling is very attractive. With Orthaheel, you get the podiatrist-designed, biomechanical Tri-planar Motion Control footbed in every shoe, so your feet will be incredibly comfortable as well as stylish.

If you like shoes with a southwestern flair, be sure to see the models from Taos. Two models in particular, the Prize and Treasure, both contain beads and embellished metal disks for visual interest. The uppers are soft and luxurious, while the anatomical footbeds provide outstanding comfort and support.

Combine a gladiator style, eggcrate softness and comfort, and beautiful metal detailing and you get the SoftWalk Women’s Tahiti. What a fabulous shoe for the warm weather! If you love lots of detailing in your shoes, you’ll love the beautiful metallic pattern on the upper. Available in Black, Mocha, and Metallic Multi leather, this shoe provides all sorts of versatility with your wardrobe.

Rhinestones make a beautiful entrance on Alegria’s Carina. Depending on the color of the shoe you choose, you can get your bling in black, silver/chrome, or bronze. The  mild rocker outsole and outstanding arch support make this shoe outstandingly comfortable, yet it’s stylish enough to wear anywhere.

Naot  doesn’t skimp on jewels and rhinestones for a little bling in your life. The Samantha, Michele, and Malibu are all very stylish slides with beautiful embellishments on the uppers. Like all Naot shoes, these slides come with the cork and latex footbed that provides outstanding support for your busiest days, and a flexible and lightweight outsole for added comfort. I love how the jewels really augment each design!
