Splurge vs. Steal: Golden Summer High-Heel Sandals

By Hanna Wallen

Silence might be golden, but gold itself? It’s not so quiet. These trendy evening sandals, done up in gold, will add that extra glow to your outfit.

Splurge
The Sevigny High Heel Sandals in patent leather by Gucci outshine most of their competitors. They also come in gold leather and black. The wide strap gives the classic style a trendy touch and adds extra stability to the four-inch heel. Get them for $695 to $795 at Neiman Marcus.

Neiman Marcus, Mazza Gallerie, 5300 Wisconsin Ave., NW, 202-966-9700; Tyson Galleria, 2255 International Dr., McLean, 703-761-1600.

Steal
Still glowing, still trendy, but less pricey. Nine West’s gold leather Olavera sandals are part of the Red Carpet Collection and have a four-inch heel. They also come in black leather. Find them at Nine West stores for $89.

Nine West, 1227 Wisconsin Ave., NW, 202-337-7256; 1001 Connecticut Ave., NW, 202-452-9163; 1100 S. Hayes St., Arlington, 703-415-2124; 11301 Rockville Pike, North Bethesda, 301-881-4575. For more locations, go to ninewest.com.
