Styling Your Sandals

I live in a tiny village in the heart of cottage country, where the views are pretty, the days are slow, and it’s any excuse to head to the beach or into town for some ice cream.

I love the mellow pace of small town life. It suits me just fine. But a small town doesn’t mean there aren’t things to do and people to see and outfits to wear (see “heading into town for ice cream”, above). In summertime, I prefer shoes that are versatile and carefree... something I can just slip on and go. With their chunky buckles and contoured footbed, Ciara sandals by Biotime have a folksy vibe that immediately sends me into summer vacation mode. They’re easy to slide on and comfy to wear, and the casual look pairs well with my tried-and-true summer wardrobe. I also love that Biotime sandals are earthing-optional; when fitted with a copper rivet, I can get my earthing fix without having to go barefoot.

Here’s how I wear them:

Distressed Jeans

Ripped jeans and earthy sandals have been a cottage classic since the ‘90s, which this Gen- Xer can appreciate. Whether combined with a hoodie, flannel shirt, or peasant blouse (as seen here), it’s the kind of timeless, casual look everyone feels good wearing. (This Gen-Xer also appreciates Biotime’s orthopaedic footbed.)

Bathing Suit + Cover-Up

The beach is a great place to get grounded, but sometimes the sand is hot! Ciara sandals with a copper rivet allow me to protect the bottoms of my feet and get my earthing on at the same time. The adjustable buckles and generous footbed helps them stay on better than flip-flops, and they look and feel perfect for boating, beach fun and more.

Sundress

The coolest of all summer clothes meets the coolest of sandals! I love floating through hot weather in a flowy dress, and I have a bunch of them. Biotime’s Ciara sandals are made with vegan leather; their natural, neutral colour is super versatile and works with everything from cheerful florals to hippie tie-dyes to solid shades.

Ciara sandals by Biotime come in Women’s sizes 37 - 41, and can be ordered with or without a copper rivet for earthing:

I’m excited about unpacking my warm weather wardrobe, and pairing up my favourite pieces with my Ciaras. Summer was made for sunny day activities, and sandals were made for summer!
