Fabworthy: Marciano Analisa Metallic Gladiator Sandal

FabSugar — Wed, 09 Jan 2008 14:00:22 -0800

This Marciano Analisa Metallic Gladiator Sandal ($200) is the closest we're going to get to looking like Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. It's daring, in your face, and designed for the boldest gals out there. It's currently not sold online, but fret not; find a Marciano store near you and get going.

To prevent looking like a fashion freak, make sure the rest of your outfit is simple and chic. I'm talking an all-black ensemble and simple jewels. Let the shoe do all the talking, er shouting . . . it sure has lots to say!

Trend Alert: Gladiator Sandals

FabSugarUK — Wed, 07 May 2008 08:00:06 -0700

It may feel like gladiator sandals pop up as a Summer time trend as regularly as knitwear appears in winter, but this season they come in more shapes and sizes than ever.

Whether you opt for a metallic pair, sandals emblazoned with jewels or a statement knee high style this is an item that you're sure to give in to. This year they appeared on the catwalk at Balenciaga, Miu Miu and Burberry but plenty of cheaper styles are now available on the High Street.

If you've got long legs then you could easily pull off an ankle high pair or knee high if you're feeling daring, for those with shorter legs opt for a lower pair which will be more flattering. You can team with a maxi dress (as seen here on Rachel Bilson) or with a playsuit (as seen on Sienna Miller).

See below for some options available from as little as £14!

Miu Miu Metallic gladiator sandals (£180)	Leather Gladiator (£14)
Office Shoes Jewelled sandals (£40)	ASOS Leather Cut Out Flat Sandal at ASOS (£40)
Black Heart Charm Sandal (£22)	Topshop Gladiator Sandal (£15)	Burberry Studded flat sandals (£250)

The Look for Less: Lanvin Gladiator Sandal

FabSugar — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 15:50:44 -0700

You all know by now that I am a huge fan of gladiator sandals, even though my friends say I look like Hercules when I wear them. Whatever. These Lanvin Gladiator Sandals, $575, to me, are one of the best kinds out there. Worn with a pair of itty-bitty denim shorts and a simple white tee, they would look dazzling. If they're a bit out of your league, you'll be excited for the look for less...I sure was!

Almost identical, these Dolce Vita Fondue Gladiator Sandals, $87, are the perfect alternative to the Lanvin ones. They even have the same t-strap and python detail. For less than half the price, I'd purchase these. And if ever asked "Are those Lanvins?" I'd just smile and nod. A little white lie never hurt anyone!

Who Wore It Better? Blue and Green Balenciaga Gladiator Sandals

FabSugar — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 11:00:22 -0700

You know the zeitgeist is in flux when Heidi Montag wears a Balenciaga item even before Sarah Jessica Parker! The reality starlet hit up NYC with Spencer on Wednesday, and took us all by surprise when she actually wore a cool outfit, complete with blue and green Balenciaga gladiator sandals. Then, the ever-so-lovely SJP filmed a commercial on Thursday in a Carrie-inspired outfit and the same exact Balenciaga shoes. I can't believe I'm doing this, but in this case, I prefer Heidi's outfit because it's more my style. Personalities aside, who do you think wore it better?

Trend Alert: The Gladiator Tuck

FabSugar — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 07:00:22 -0700

As fabulous as they are, I never said celebrities don't sometimes wear the silliest trends. The gladiator tuck is a questionable one. Here, some starry eyed youngins are sporting their skinnies tucked into their gladiator sandals. Sienna Miller was actually spotted wearing this style in 2005 and it's obvious as to why it hasn't caught on that quickly. I'm on the fence; I like the look with gladiator heels better, at least it elongates. I suggest sticking with dark colors - dark denims and brown and black glads. But if you're young, bold and funky, tuck yourself right in.

Trend Alert: Gladiator Sandals

What to wear on the way to the forum? Why, a luxe pair of gladiator sandals. These may not be for everyone, they are a bit masculine and daring, but I for one love them. They have a very exotic feel and when worn with a slinky trapeze style dress you create a look that is totally sexy - trust me. Also, a look that is very comfortable! My only suggestion is to wear any ankle straps with a good bit of leg showing as to not cut off the length of the leg. Oh, and stay away from the lions!

eBay Find of the Week

I always say, there's a right shade of beige for footwear and there's a wrong one. This Beige Gladiator Leather Sandal, size 8, definitely has the right shade. I love the way it lends an au naturel feel to the foot, and I also dig the cream platform.

The current bidding price is $39.99 (buy it now for $49.99) and the auction ends on Monday, June 22. Good luck and happy buying!

Trend Alert: The Bronze Gladiator

FabSugar — Wed, 21 May 2008 09:00:22 -0700

I revel in it when a previous bargain of mine finally makes it to trend status. Not to brag, but I scored a pair of Christian Dior bronze gladiators over a year ago on major markdown - they were from the 2008 Cruise collection. It was right when gladiators were surfacing, though I've always liked the masculine/feminine sandal. Now gladiators are every which where and it was hard to miss Gwyneth's Giuseppe Zanotti for Balmain bronze sandals at the Two Lovers premiere in Cannes. So we all have black ones, move on to the lover, the fighter, the bronze gladiator.
