have you got your gladiator sandal?
must-have shoes for the summer! i havent got mine yet! you can see them all over on the s/s runway, from balenciaga to chanel to givenchy, check it out! 
however gladiator sandal is nothing new. its a trend roll-over, which is when a trend from the previous year (same season) 'rolls over' to the next year (same season). i did some research and its been rolling over since 2005. or maybe even 2000 when russell crowe started wearing them! i guess this year is more about getting up to knee length. i was actually looking around for a nice pair to go with the 08APR E tube dresses, but i didnt have enough time and i had to leave for singapore. now that i am back in hk, i shall continue my search! 
all photos from style.com
those who already got something similar, you can match it with APR E tube dresses and look totally cool! or with your denim shorts and a loose flowy top!
p.s. remember when you were a kid, do you have a pair of gladiator sandals from bata? hahaha i vividly remember my brown one. its funny i think almost every kid owns at least a pair! cute.

thanks guys for your comments! will check them out! oh i have to squeeze some time out to go shopping!
ebay has some really fanatical ones. =D i love gladiators but i'm too short for them. ESP since i love the really high ones! haha i hope u have great luck in looking for them and post them on your blog soon. it will be inspiring to see what you pair them with.
Hoping that you guys can bring in some pretty gladiator sandals... I love those that are calf length high!
But its so hard to find :(
hi ellen, yes thats the problem with the knee length ones, i am also short. have to match with a really short dress or short skirt, to elongate the legs. hehe. i hope i can find one which is about shin length! : )
hi geradline, i also love those calf length one! but yes, quite hard to find one which is cool in style and price. hehe. keep on looking!
