If you're a regular reader of The Wall Street Journal, you may be facing the warmer weather today thinking you're in need of some "dress sandals" for the spring season. Ones that, as this article explains, can be worn to "church and other high functions." Hmm.
First off, there must be some rule that you should never expose your toes in church. Surely that's one place that requires the wearing of real shoes, ones with leather uppers that cover your toes and legitimate soles, regardless of your personal religious beliefs. And also: No man sandals, man. Sure, if you search high and low, you may be able to find a pair that helps you channel your own personal Jesus — leather, strappy, the kind your girlfriend might wear on a vacation in Tulum — but that's no look to be emulating in 2012.
The Journal's piece concludes with this scary advice: "Don't ever give up on finding elegant men's sandals." That seems like a waste of time. Especially when you've got a much better option out there. It's called the espadrille, and while it's also never meant to be worn to church, it's a fantastic option to wear with weekend trousers and other light, summer-ready looks. End your sandal search here and head to the temple of J.Crew, for the latest collaboration you see above. Then, and only then, will you find the salvation you're seeking.
