- no, all have straps, i looked. 5-4-2016 12:23pm
- If it doesn't have an ankle strap, it will flip/flop and get your dress stuck under your heel, if its a long dress. 5-4-2016 12:23pm
- short dress 5-4-2016 12:24pm
- look at a sling back. nice lines for the leg. 5-4-2016 12:25pm
- how to find a stylish, current one? very hard. 5-4-2016 12:26pm
- d'orsay are nice too 5-4-2016 12:27pm
- don't know that brand, I will look 5-4-2016 12:27pm
- Its a style, not a brand 5-4-2016 12:27pm

- i looked...in addition to being immorally expensive, they are too high...not comfortable and I have to walk down an isle and try not to land on my face 5-4-2016 12:25pm
- I find them to be very comfortable. 5-4-2016 12:26pm

- your post is confusing, you want a slide? 5-4-2016 12:23pm
- no, I want a shoe that doesn't cut off my leg w/ a strap around the front of my ankle. 5-4-2016 12:24pm
- then get a slingback, see below silhouette 5-4-2016 12:24pm

- yes, I'm just showing you the shape 5-4-2016 12:25pm
- np it's not a sandal and yeah, it's totally old lady 5-4-2016 12:26pm

- you're right - everything I"m seeing has the strap around the ankle. 5-4-2016 12:25pm
- thanks for looking. I agree, I think I will have to end up with the strap, there's nothing out there. 5-4-2016 12:26pm
- I'm sure there is something but I started with jcrew and every black dress sandal has the ankle strap instead of a sling 5-4-2016 12:27pm
- correct...i'm telling you, impossible task. It is obviously on trend to have a strap... 5-4-2016 12:28pm
- ^you know what? Do you have any upscale resale shops near you? Look for used. 100%serious. This season seems to be all about straps. 5-4-2016 12:28pm
