Target recently pulled Sam Edelman's 25-year-old lower-priced brand from the depths of the retail graveyard to reunite it with its founders, Sam and Libby, and we're so glad they did.
Above you'll find the first Sam & Libby for Target collection, a trend-conscious summer sandal range with a leopard print smoking slipper thrown in for good measure. Libby adorably recommends pairing their flats with "Shorts, flirty dresses, and cropped skinny jeans so you can show off your shoes." The shoes start at $24.95 and will debut Sunday, May 5 at Targets locations and online.
