Strappy Sandals: For evening

Don’t be afraid to try the palazzo pant! They are a little intimidating at first, but they make for great bottoms on a breezy spring night, since they’re airy enough for the warm weather (not to mention they’re super comfy). A simple black tank goes great with the patterned pant and strappy sandals. Add some tribal jewelry to stick to the earthy vibe.
