Birkenstocks Are Back! Here’s How to Wear Them, by Heidi Klum

Birkenstocks are back! These famously ugly-yet-comfy sandals are cropping up as a huge summer trend this year. Design houses including Givenchy, Celine and Marc Jacobs have recently produced their takes on the laid-back sandal, turning Birkenstock-style slippers into more fashionable staple pieces. Last week I posted How To Wear High Heels and mentioned that you should always give your feet a break – well, I think you should invest in some Birkenstocks for heels-off days! Not only are Birks comfortable, but you can style them any way you want to. Today I’m spotlighting supermodel and Birkenstock collection designer Heidi Klum’s Birkenstock style as well as showing you where you can get the same looks for less.
