Navy-themed gear is making a comeback this coming season with the nautical Yves Saint Laurent wedge sandals. Designed by Stefano Pilati, the sandals are navy blue, covered in seashells, anchors and other watery fun characters of the sea. You'll feel more like you're walking on clouds rather than walking on water with the 5.5 high inches these stilts come equipped with.
The Yves Saint Laurent wedge sandals are part of its 2012 Resort Collection, mixing other nautical accessories and patterns into the look. From gold buttons, to sailor jackets and pants, it's clear YSL isn't ready to abandon its love of the sea quite yet, despite nautical style already being quite prominent in past years.
Nonetheless, these wedge sandals give me dreams of couture poolside lounging, sleek shades and long legs for summer 2012.
