All it takes to get this look is a black off-the-shoulder top and some relaxed olive pants. Studded sandals bring the glam factor and everybody is loving the Steve Madden "Travel" sandal - definitely this summer's "It" shoe! Save a little or spend a little on our picks below to get the look...



Look for Less: Steve Madden 'Kimmie' Sandals

Steve Madden 'Kimmie' dupe sandals at Walmart
One of the season's most popular sandals is the Steve Madden "Kimmie" sandal with it's summer-ready espadrille detailing and flatform styling. At $74, it's not a major investment but we found a near identical sandal at Walmart for just $20! I own the blush color and it's really quite comfy thanks to those elasticized straps. Balance this chunky sandal with shorter skirts, shorts and rompers. Save or spend, it's your pick!
