Top Shoes and Handbags by Sam Edelman

With 30 years in the industry, Sam Edelman has aged his craft of footwear design much like a fine wine. Several successes and a few misfortunes in the industry guided him in and out of the footwear world, though it was really a horseback riding accident that sparked the beginnings of his now wildly successful company. We now know Sam Edelman to design shoes, handbags, and accessories––all are top-shelf quality at a mild price range. The line is consistent with current trends and always has popular, timeless pieces available. 

Sam Edelman Shoe Must-Haves 

We ladies know all too well the struggle of fending off blisters and sore toes as a result of long term heel-wear. Prolonged comfort can be as simple as wearing a pair of chunky heels. The Odele Ankle Wrap Sandals ($120.00) are a girly combination of comfort and cute. Wrap heels have made their debut on the runway this season, accentuating the ankle for a feminine touch.

Sleek and Chic! The Patti Ankle Strap Sandal ($100 ) is known as a "Sam's girl must-have." These simple heels offer the utmost versatility. There’s always that one pair of shoes in your wardrobe that seem to find their way to your feet every day, and these stilettos will be that pair! The simple yet elegant design is parable with a formal or casual outfit. 

Here’s hoping you’ve added a pair of boots to your ever growing shoe collection. If you haven’t, Sam Edelman's Portman Leather Riding Boots ($175) are a prime example of why you should invest in a pair. Stretchy suede hugs your legs all the way up to your knees, shaping them for a long, lean look. This style of boot can be worn well into the warm summer days when paired with a dress or skirt. Style up some distressed jeans or high-wasted shorts with these suede beauties for a raw finish.

Yardley Lace-Up Heeled Sandal ($150) are an everyday must. Ultra-sexy woven details on these heals make for an intricate work of art. Skinny jeans are a friendly pairing with these booties, but for a fashion-forward take, wear them with a rolled up boyfriend jean. 

Hello prints, we meet again! If you haven’t heard, print patterns are sneaking their way into the must-haves of the year. With a stiletto heel and low-cut sides, the Hazel Pointed Toe Heels ($120) are Sam Edelman's fresh take on the perfect pump. 

Sam Edelman Bag Must-Haves 

The Sylvia Top Handle Bag ($228) is just the right amount of Boho Chic. The intricate embroidery and golden Sam Edelman emblem dress up the bag's black leather base. Featuring the option to wear it as a hand bag or shoulder bag, the versatility is quite utilitarian. Pair the Sylvia Top Handle Bag with some chunky wrap heals, distressed jean shorts, and a long duster cardigan for an on-trend look. 

Every girl needs a clutch for a night on the town! This one pairs well with almost any outfit you chose to rock. The Walker Patchwork Clutch ($74) is a simple, yet intelligent design. Contrasting colors such as these are a hit on the runway. Drawing the eye in, the multiple toned panels have a natural appeal. 

The Donna Leather Fringe cross-body bag ($96) reads hip, laid back, sexy, and casual all in one modestly-constructed piece. The grey fringe and chain strap suggest a mild rocker babe feel. With just the right amount of rugged and just the right amount of cute, this bag is an easy pairing and will be a well-loved addition to your purse collection. 

Oversized shoulder bags are often a necessity when you lug around everything but your kitchen sink on a daily basis. The Ella Hobo purse ($298) is the "it" bag for the girl who’s always on the go. Squeeze your essentials in without compromising style. 

Another metallic by Sam Edelman graces our stage, this time, in cute bag form. For a fancy night out, the Lissie Chain bag ($62) is a taste of perfection. Though it may be extra tiny, it allows you to tote around your essentials, worn as a cross shoulder bag or a clutch. With the thick chain detailing and forgiving color, you can pair it with casual and glammed-up outfits to your liking.
