With thanks to the Chloé runway, the gladiator sandal is backkkkk.

We’ve been through the gladiator trend before, circa 2008-ish I believe, & sadly when the trend died so did my collection of glads (not happy, going to start hoarding clothes from here on out).

Learning from experience, no matter how amazing the shoe, I just can’t come to terms w/ dropping a pretty penny on something that will soon be “so last season“. If I am going to invest my money in a shoe, it’s gotta be one with a shelf life longer than a few months. Ya know?

In cases like these, I’m all about that “poor girl” find, & luckily I found two really great options that are so so similar to the coveted Chloé version (but much more wallet-friendly).

& as always, feel free to let me know if you guys have any “rich girl” lushes that you want me to find w/ a “poor girl” pricetag!
