Last year was the year of Stuart Weitzman’s Nudist sandals. Nearly every celebrity wore the strappy shoe style to at least one red carpet event or another. Though the simple design is certainly a classic, we’re predicting a new footwear trend this year. Meet the Frontline heels (aka the new celebrity It shoes) designed by Tamara Mellon. With transparent side straps and a flattering cut, the minimalistic sandals are perfect for date night or any evening occasion. Plus, we’ve already spotted the strappy heels on a range of fashionable celebs (proof below).
