— February 27, 2014 — Fashion
The Miista Rachel Platform Sandal is a high heel foot fantasy.

The sandals are pastel colored baby blue and aquamarine. The baby blue straps have a light shine to them. The out of this world green and blue platform sandal is made from genuine leather. The funky colored shoes also have a translucent green buckle closure. The lug sole is dramatic and fashion forward for the upcoming Spring/Summer season. The chunky lug sole heel is also ultra comfortable, providing stability and support around the ankle.

Much like wedged heels, the slip on platform sandal is ultra comfortable. Unlike thin stiletto high heels the platform heel gives support and height without the pain. The genuine leather lining and cushion insole makes the platform sandal feel like you're wearing flats.
