Find a piece · Strappy sandal

Straps, and nothing else to think about.

A strappy sandal doesn't argue with anything else you own — not a slip dress, not tailored trousers, not the jeans you've had since college. The Tory Burch version ties a soft ivory bloom at the toe, so it reads as the outfit's finishing move instead of an accessory still trying to earn its spot.

Skip the debate over heel height and buy for the strap instead — thin, crossing the foot, gone the second you stop looking at it. That's the part almost any price point gets right, which is why the swap below holds up so well once it's actually on.
