Carlotta Slide Sandal (Women)

I recently sustained torn ligaments in my ankle from a misstep during my morning run. I was placed in a bandage and aircast brace and on crutches for several weeks. The bandage and aircast made it impossible to wear any of my regular shoes on the injured foot. This was upsetting, as I was set to be a bridesmaid for my friend's wedding a week after I got hurt. I came across these cute sandals at a local store and found that they would work with the bandage and aircast. I picked them up in black and blush to match several of my work and casual shoes. This allowed me to match them to the shoe that I wore on my good foot. I was pleased at how well they both matched the colors of my regular dress shoes. All things considered, I thought they were extremely comfortable and afforded my injured foot some protection, especially if I had to put it down on the ground. Plus, they looked great as well. This was really beneficial as I ended up being on crutches for over a month while my ankle healed up. I wore the blush sandal in the wedding, and the color was identical to the blush (nude) ankle strap heel that I wore on my good foot. I still had to be on crutches, but I could at least wear two shoes! I was amazed at how many people commented on them and complemented me on making the best of the situation. These complements certainly helped my spirits and boosted my confidence while I was injured! I have to admit that being able to look good and dress up my injury certainly made dealing with it much easier. I am forever grateful!
