I lost the sandals of my dreams yesterday in what I can only really describe as a tragic event. They were pretty and sturdy enough to bike in and reasonably priced and … they sold out, a full two months before anyone could even really wear them without looking ridiculous. So, while it can be difficult to justify pre-season purchasing, if you don’t snatch up the things you love now, they may very well run off with someone else, even if your calves would look more toned in them. We’ve rounded up a few other sandals totally worth buying early in the hopes of helping you avoid my sorry fate. [$30, Forever21]
