Bright summer days and hot summer nights offer plenty of chances to shine, but when you need to take it up just a little more, reach for the gold and sequins:

The latest from Manolo Blahnik are these Ankle-Wrap Sequined Sandals, a pair of bright gold leather sandals with sequin embellishment and a rhinestone buckle.
Your feet will be covered with sequins from heel to toe, and this gleaming pair is just another way to show off that tan.

Though animal prints are best reserved for the colder months – days when you want to turn up the heat with your look or just play feisty – these Manolo’s might just bring out your wild side this summer:

The Manolo Blahnik Ankle-Wrap Leopard Sandals help you add 4″ to those gams with their super-skinny heels and mid-ankle wrap design.
These are made with a fuzzy leopard-print haircalf for an extra twist, and gold-tone hardware and a rich brown leather finish bring this look together – and heat up any simple outfit this season.
