Platformed, strappy an just a little bit clunky; that pretty much describes the Pedro Garcia Dream Platform Sandal, as well as just about every pair of sandals you’ll be seeing this spring. The 4 1/2″ heel height might look sort of scary, but the nearly 1″ platform makes them a bit more comfortable than they look. We love this pair of sandals especially for gold details around the edges of the straps, as well as the fab nude color.
