Ankle-strap sandals are our favorite footwear for Summer — and we can see that the celebrity world agrees! Everyone from Julianne Hough and Lauren Conrad to Diane Kruger and Reese Witherspoon has donned the minimalistic style with their latest warm-weather ensembles. Ankle-strap sandals come in a variety of colors, but the most popular are white, nude, and black because they go with just about everything. What we love so much about the easy dual straps is that, unlike strappy sandals, they never compete with your top half. Ready to get your ankle-strap sandal on? Head inside to see how to work the trend for an entire week.

Too Many TV Stars to Count Step Out For the Critics' Choice Television Awards!
The third annual Critics' Choice Television Awards presented by the Broadcast Television Journalists Association were held at the Beverly Hilton in LA on Monday night to honor small-screen achievements. A whole host of stars and series were up for awards, and the big winners of the night included Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones — which tied for best drama — and presenter Kaley Cuoco's Big Bang Theory. The show won for best comedy, and Kaley also picked up best supporting actress in a comedy for her role on the CBS hit. Veep's Julia Louis-Dreyfus took home the top spot over Amy Poehler, Lena Dunham, Zooey Deschanel, and others in the best actress in a comedy category. Elisabeth Moss was nominated for Mad Men and won a statuette for her work in the miniseries Top of the Lake. Diane Kruger was on hand in a Nina Ricci dress, and Malin Akerman make her second red carpet appearance since welcoming her son, Sebastian, in April. There were plenty more TV stars on hand for the award ceremony, and we were on the red carpet, so stay tuned for more from the big event!
