Studded sandals are a huge trend right now — here are 15 of the best pairs to add to your wardrobe
Boho's fashion takeover is showing no signs of slowing down. From disc belts to fringed handbags, it feels like it's 2004 all over again. A major part of the free-spirited, boho aesthetic are sandals, so it makes sense that studded styles are blowing up right now. From Birkenstocks recently released Rivets collection, to Havianas viral collaboration with Barcelona-based cool girl brand Gimaguas, embellished, open-toe footwear has become a summer must-have. Actress Julianne Moore confirmed the trend last month, when she stepped out in a pair of New York label Khaite's Boden studded leather sandals. Worn with white linen trousers and tinted aviator sunglasses, this look went straight to the top of our moodboard. Now's the time to tap into the trend — perfect to pack for summer holidays or don on warm days in the city, there's a pair of studded sandals to suit everyone. Comfy and stylish, a pair of slide-on sandals are a must-have in everyone's wardrobe. Birkenstock's much-loved Arizona sandal got a boho makeover last month, with the rivet-covered style coming in six different colours (the Gizeh and the Boston styles are also available). The high-street also has plenty of slip-on styles to offer — we love the olive green colour of this M&S pair, which also come with built in footbed support. Love them or loathe them, flip-flops are undeniably the shoe of the summer thanks to The Row. Studs make this humble shoe just that bit more interesting, and will spice up the simplest of summer outfits, from jorts to white dresses. A low heel can go a long way. This chunky block pair from Valentino are what dreams are made of — it's another fashion house majorly pushing the boho agenda. Zara's studded kitten heels look much more expensive than they are, and Michael Kors' Merriam pair are perfect for day-to-night dressing. All of these are just crying out to be worn with a floaty maxi dress — make sure you show off that ankle-strap detail! Teva's will always be a part of our summer shoe rotation, and this silver-studded pair are bang-on trend. Isabel Marant is yet another boho brand to covet, and these tan Jopee sandals prove exactly why. Think of a thong sandal as a cousin to the flip-flop — they just have more structure and foot coverage. Wear with midi skirts, romantic blouses and chunky disc belts.

Former Chicago Cubs public address announcer Andrew Belleson relaunches his career again in Rockford
ROCKFORD, Ill. (WTVO/WQRF) — There are a lot of new players on the Rockford Rivets Northwoods League baseball team this season. They also have a new manager, and a new guy at the microphone streaming their games, although he's not new to Belleson is his name. Some Rivets games this season, he'll do play-by-play, others he will provide analysis. Belleson started his broadcasting career in Rockford at this (Rivets) stadium as an intern two decades ago.'We're dating ourselves here, but yeah, yeah, Rockford Riverhawks (former Frontier League team in Rockford),' said Belleson. 'I did PA here when the stadium was almost brand new, and it was pointed out that that was about 20 years ago.'Then Belleson made an almost unheard of jump from RiverHawks minor league baseball in Rockford to the Chicago Cubs. He landed the Cubs public address announcer job.'I was a kid Scott. I was 23 years old. There was about 3,000 people that applied, and it wasn't really my interest to apply. I figured I've got no chance…but I did.' 'I got hired about week before opening day in 2011.'Wrigley Field became Belleson's office for ten years. He was there for the Cubs World Series season in 2016.'I was so fortunate to do it during the run they had. The timing was great. I've got a World Series ring which I don't deserve.'It was quite a gig for a young man who grew up a Cubs' fan, but in 2020 Belleson walked away from that job. His heart was set on broadcasting games. It wasn't set on being a public address announcer.'Play-by-play is my passion. It's always been (that), and my goal is to make it back to the big leagues as a play-by-play guy. I knew if I didn't step away from what I thought was my dream job at that point, that this might never happen.'The past few years, Belleson has done play-by-play work for the Chicago Dogs and Windy City Thunderbolts minor league baseball teams. Now, he's back in Rockford hoping this city will again be his next stepping-stone to another dream your dream job now is play-by-play for the Cubs?'Well, I'll take it if you're offering. Yeah, I'll take that, but a major league job somewhere someday again would be very neat for me personally.'The Rivets games are streamed on which can also be accessed through the Rivets website. Some of the games are also streamed by ESPN+. So, you can catch Belleson there along with his broadcast/streaming partner Ian Plaskoff. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
