I absolutely love embellished sandals, but I have had many where the stones fall out within a few wears, however that isn't a problem with Giuseppe Zanotti shoes. His designs are very well made and the embellishments are tightly fixed. I have an embellished Mary Jane that is on it's third year and as good as new. These sandals are very pretty and come in almost every color, but my favorites are the black pair and the gorgeous cream pair below. They have a back zip closure and a 4.25 inch heel. They are available at Zappos and Endless. The black sandals are reduced, $707. Cream sandals, $1,075.
