You know about this sandal. You know about it now because you've been seeing it everywhere — the superwiry, leather braided block heel that looks downright incredible with a slinky slip dress. It's available in metallics, whites, and black, like Queen Letizia's version, but if it smells like nostalgia up in here, that's because this shoe hails from the '90s [1]. Oh, and Jennifer Aniston [2] totally wore a pair as Rachel Green on Friends [3].
Letizia, who also recently induced major wardrobe envy with these $140 wedges [4], stepped out with her family to attend the Ara Malikian concert at Port Adriano in Spain. She styled her covetable footwear with a white silk top, black trousers, hoops, and a Summer envelope clutch, keeping right on trend with the decade that's inspiring all our shopping these days. Read ahead to zoom in on her shoes, then scoop up a similar pair. You certainly won't regret it.
