However, ten years is just too long to wear flip-flops and it’s about time to upgrade! That’s why, this year, I have finally invested in t-bar sandals. I have black ones and browns now, but after seeing these Tibi Twiggy T–bar sandals, I may have a pair of pink ones calling my closet home soon.

The thing about this style is that they are perfect for the summer. They show off perfect summer toes and come in casual styles and more dressy styles. These Tibi sandals are a perfect middle of the road compromise and grow with my flip-flop/t-bar sandal evolutionary adventure.

These sandals have a fuchsia and white swirl pattern with a slight heel along with side ankle strap fasteners. They are currently $150 (marked down from $375) and come in a variety of sizes from theoutnet.com.

Tibi Twiggy T-Bar Sandals

I may actually run to DSW sometime this weekend, put a pair on and walk up and down the aisle in them for a few minutes.  Then, after pining for them for a few more minutes I will put them back in the box very slowly and walk towards the shoes I know I can afford. The shoes I can afford, though, are in another store and are made of rubber. 

My Kenzo dream shoes are made of printed patent leather with the pretty delicate pink flower on the t-strap. They’re $199 and are marked down from an original $610.
