I bought a pair of K. Jacques sandals last year at my friend Rachael's lovely shop, La Ree, and they have promptly become my go-to summer footwear. K. Jacques sandals are made by hand in an 80-year old factory in Saint-Tropez, France. The designs are beautiful, simple and made to last and definitely worth the splurge. I'd love to have this pair next...
