Jimmy Choo’s Opulence Sandal

There are a ton of neutral shoes out there this spring. Some are quite lovely while others are just kind of, ‘meh’.

Today, I find myself on the fence with these ‘Opulence’ caged sandals from Jimmy Choo.

I like how the understated beige tone makes these feel a lot less bossy than would be the case than if they were in a black or metallic material. I also like how the rose has a softening influence and is playing against the rigid lines of the squared, quasi-gladiator upper. Yet, I’m still just lukewarm on these. I don’t hate them, but I’m not falling in love with them, either. Maybe they are still too gladiator-esque in their main lines for someone like me who never really fell for that whole gladiator trend in the first place?

What do you think?

P.S. Speaking of opulence, who wouldn’t want a miniature giraffe?
