Glamorous Gladiator

"What we do in life echoes in eternity"

--Gladiator 2000

Okay, not the best film, or even the best worst film, but if the shoe fits... Wow, I'm just full of puns tonight.  But in all seriousness, every girl needs a good gladiator sandals.  I mean, they are simply a spring essential!  Not only are they incredibly comfortable, although they sort of look like medieval torture devices, but they make anything an outfit.  At the end of the day, this is really the key to all fashion success: it's not about quantity, it's about quality.  Staples are they essence of any wardrobe and they're truly what make the style guru.  Now, obviously a pair of sandals won't exactly make or break your closet, but they can seriously turn an ensemble from drab to fab.  So, style tip: find bold pieces that you can pair with absolutely anything, and begin to flesh out your own style that can be easily identified in these few items.
