In fashion-land it's often the smallest details that make the difference. Which explains why cap-toe espadrilles are far superior to standard issue solid hued ones. That little color blocking somehow imparts extra oodles of French-chic cool, as seen in the photo above. Pour La Victoire makes just about the cutest ones, in a variety of shades (my favorites come in denim and red) and they are on sale at Neiman Marcus for a mere $53. And, BTW, you'll also find tons of other discounted deep-summer-worthy staples there (get an additional 25% off select sale items through tomorrow 7/30), including these Michael Kors studded sandals (48% off) this pretty embellished Lanvin clutch (50% off), this striking Peter Pilotto dress (70% off) and this sleek See by Chloe wrap skirt (65% off).
