The Shopping Bug Bit Us This July — Here's What We're Buying

"For me, a pair of strappy black leather sandals is one of the most important pieces of my wardrobe. I can pair them with cropped jeans or a pair of shorts, with a casual sundress, or even as a way to dress down a fancier maxi dress. The pair I've owned for two years just broke last weekend (I had to hobble home on the tube with one of them tied precariously to my foot), so I need a replacement. The & Other Stories Knotted Leather Lace Up Sandals ($99) definitely fit the bill." – SP
