Manolo says, one of the Manolo’s many internet friends has asked the Manolo the question.

I have been graciously given a few coupons to use at Zappos.com But they are the “act fast or expire” kind. So armed with my new bonus of $70, I would like to find some neutral (bone, taupe, tan,bronze) strappy sandals.

I can probably put a few extra dollars onto it (70+150 or so) but am wondering which of their lot is

1) not matronly
2) not too high
3) fashionable

so I wonder, if the Manolo of the Shoeblogs.com would be so kind as to assist me.

Manolo says, the coupons! The friend of the Manolo is indeed most lucky. Here are three pairs of the super fantastic shoes that the Manolo thinks would be worth the wearing.

When the Manolo he thinks of the comfortable sandals of strappiness, he must indeed think of the Stuart Weitzman. This color, it is called the “gold matte lame”. Do not ask the Manolo how the “lame” it can also at the same of the time be “matte”. It sounds to the Manolo like the dangerous combination of the opposing materials, like the meeting of the matter and the anti-matter. Whatever, are they not indeed most pretty?

This one from the Charles David it is the simple and the classic choice, and in the color “camel kid” less dangerous than the “matte lame”.

Finally, here is this beautiful shoe from the Delman. It is the little more elaborate, but it is also, in the humble opinion of the Manolo, stunning.
