Jellies Are Back!

Everything that goes around, comes around and that’s no more true than in fashion. But who imagined Jellies, those plastic sandals would be in fashion again.
But make no mistake – these are not the ones you remember. We asked our expert, Michelle Madhook at SheFinds about this new /old trend:
“Granted, they're all still plastic, so you'll notice that the sweat usually absorbed by your leather sandals is a little more, shall we say, tactile. Although, lots of these cute style are breathable, provide plenty of flow-through, and are built to last.
1. I couldn't decide whether I liked these See by Chloe Ankle Wrap Jelly ($125) sandals better in plum or the jade. You can decide, but both jewel tones are rich and pretty, and would look great paired with a sundress.
2. Marc Jacobs' Mouse Flats are a wardrobe staple, and it's just a nice gesture of him to reissue the Jelly version ($160) in a set of bright spring shades.
3. Want to know when a trend has officially hit the zeitgeist? When a brand like Tod's broadens its traditional mojo to create this eye-popping orange Jelly Thong Sandal ($175). Still waiting on the coordinating tote, though.
