For the better part of 2018, I covered all of the big shoe trends that hit the fashion scene. From the “Cinderella” shoes that swept Instagram to our editors’ best buys to the styles that had a stamp of approval from Net-a-Porter’s buying director, there was plenty of footwear that made it onto my radar. With all of the trends that caught my eye, though, my personal favorite shoes that emerged last year were strappy sandals. The minimalist sandals have been on the fashion scene for a year and still feel fresh, and I only predict that we’ll be seeing them more in 2019.
Last fall, I finally picked up a pair from Zara, and they quickly emerged as one of the most-worn and best-loved pieces in my closet—and it turns out I’m not the only one. They’re a staple in the closets of cool fashion girls across Instagram, and they’re also my mom's new favorite pair. (She scooped them up after she spotted me wearing them.) Here’s the best part: The $70 heels just went on sale for $36, so take my advice and order them for yourself before they sell out.
I'd been debating exactly which strappy sandals to add to my closet but couldn't pass up these extremely well-priced ones from Zara.
Neither could my mom.
Clearly, we think alike when it comes to our fashion choices.
I also spotted fashion girl Fiona Zanetti wearing the barely there heels.
As well as Deborah Reyner Sebag, who recently wore them in Paris.

AHEAD, MORE WAYS TO STYLE STRAPPY SANDALS
Pair them with logo socks.
Or socks and sweatpants. Yes, here's proof that it looks cool.
Tights are making a huge comeback, and one cool way to style them is with strappy heels.
You can also opt for loose-fit jeans.
Take your denim one step further with a leopard top.
Or bare legs and a faux-fur jacket.
