Best Bets: Just Bead It   The proliferation of the gladiator
sandal has led to almost total street domination. But on the
flip side, it’s also created a variety of styles to choose from.
Since you plan on adding to your inventory, consider the candy-

This French boho brand has been subtly infiltrating our shores
for a while now, and has brought with it that perfect Parisian
style you've spent years trying to master. So while that wait is
over, gladiator sandals are not.  $123 at
