Grounded by platforms or elevated by luxurious details, sandals are on the rise.

Flip-flops will take you to the beach or the nail salon, but for many other occasions, high-heel sandals--not kitten heels, not skimmers--are in order. For daytime, try a pair such as Christian Louboutin's Satrinxia (above, $435), which have a sturdy platform and "a thick heel to make you more stable," says Louboutin. The best evening sandals are sleek and refined, with subtle embellishments and maximum foot exposure. And for an instant spike in sex appeal, "every woman should have sandals the color of her skin," says Louboutin. "It makes her look positively barefoot, but with the greatest legs."
