The Espadrilles - From Rural Casual Wear To Timeless Pieces

Summer is almost here and I am sure you saw the espadrilles back in stores. A couple of years ago it really surprised me to start seeing the espadrilles everywhere because believe it or not, this specific type of shoe comes from Spain and the Basque Country of France, where I was born and spent my childhood. Growing up, the espadrilles were my flip flop, buying a couple every year in different colors.

Well, now that is worldwide thanks to Yves Saint Laurent who made the first fashionable espadrilles in the 70’s and Chanel who made it an “it shoe” again a couple of years ago, you can definitely now find very stylish espadrilles at different price points.

Here is my little selection for you!

What ‘s your favorite?

Bisous!
