Technically I am against the gladiator sandal trend. I think they look stupid on 90% of the population. But these high-heeled gladiators are something I can get behind because they’re not obnoxiously strappy, they give you some lift which counteracts the stumpy-leg affect of most strappy flats and they’re wedges, which means they are easy to walk in. Sold. [$89, NineWest.com]

What’s better than getting flowers? Getting Prada’s gorgeous floral high heels! From peep toes with flower rhinestone encrusted stilettos to bright pink petal heels, there are lots of styles to make you feel funky fresh or super sleek and sophisticated.  While the pumps may cost a pretty penny, nothing says summer quite like a beautiful bouquet—especially if it’s on four-inch stiletto sandals!

We saw these and were like, “Damn, those are hot.” [LAX Nightclub, Las Vegas, 5/31/08]
