Top Picks in Sexy Sandals

By , About.com Guide

One of the best things about Summer is all the sexy sandals -- and this season, the styles are hotter than ever. Here are a few of my top picks in sexy sandals for women.

1. L.A.M.B. "Rae" Strappy, Sexy Sandals

Seven straps are better than one. Don't believe me? You will when you see these crazy-sexy sandals from L.A.M.B. Available in gray, red, or black, this stunner has 4.25" heels and a pinwheel flower embellishment on the outside. I'll admit I wasn't crazy about the floral add-on at first, and generally don't find those types of decorations sexy at all ... but, it's grown on me. And in all honesty, I'm so impressed with how these shoes look from the front, I'd probably overlook a broken doll head glued to the side.

2. Report "Ziska" - Sexy White Sandals

White sandals are practically a Summer essential, and they're among the sexiest items you can have in your wardrobe -- well, assuming they're the right kind of white sandals, that is. These killer high heels from the Report Signature line are definitely the right kind of white sandals. With 4.5" heels and belted open fronts, these cross-strapped platforms feature chic buckles and black accents. For all the style with a little less drama, check out these sexy sandals in brown.

3. Jessica Simpson "Stelana" - Light Neutral Sandals

Despite their substantial soles, these platform sandals are ultra-sexy and extremely versatile. And, thanks to the light neutral coloring and minimal uppers, they could be paired with everything from jeans to shorts, and most mid-length or shorter skirts and dresses. In addition to nude, these ankle strap sandals are also available in black or tan, and feature crazy-high 4.75" heels -- but they will feel more like 3.75" heels because of the 1" platform soles.

4. BCBGirls 'Damara' - Hot Woven Sandals

It's not a given that woven sandals will be sexy, but huarache-influenced sandals are hot this season, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a sexier example than these BCBGirls shoes. Available in pink, amaretto, or medium brown leather, these sexy sandals feature 4.5" heels, and 1.5" platform soles. The interesting thing about these platform soles is that they don't look quite as thick as they actually are; they're stacked so that the top half of the platform blends into the upper, and therefore isn't as visible as the bottom half.

5. Pelle Moda "Vesper" - Low-Heeled Sexy Sandals

Think flat or low heeled sandals can't be sexy? Think again. The trick is in finding the right ones. When it's sex appeal you're after, banish all thoughts of wide bands and sturdy features from your mind, and look for delicate straps and exotic or unsual embellishments. Available in brown, silver or black, these toe ring sandals are a great example of a sexy low-heeled sandal. Pair these gem-adorned sandals with shorts or a mini, and the look is super-hot.

6. Pelle Moda "Colette" - Shimmer is Hot

There's a reason you see crystals and rhinestones embellishing so many shoes and sandals these days. Quite simply, the look is hot. These embellishments catch the light, making them shimmer and sparkle with every step you take - how could that not be appealing?
