Best Budget Buy: Leighton Meester for Nelly Cut-Out Block Sandal

To celebrate Nelly.com’s ten years anniversary, Gossip Girl actress Leighton Meester made a selection of her favorites, channeling L.A. style.

Leighton’s selection is divided in several themes: Show Some Skin, Rock Style, Animal Mania, Little White One, Flower Power, Perfect Party, Sporty Attitude, All Black and Lovely Legs.

The first cool item we stumbled upon are these cut-out block heel sandals. We hardly had any Winter (in terms of cold), and the Spring vibe is buzzing so why not let our first March Best Budget Buy be a pair of open shoes?

They’re totally on trend with a mirrored 11cm heel, and reptile details. Wear them with light washed boyfriend denim or sleek maxi skirt and crop top to make them rock.

Check out the behind-the-scenes and a mini Q&A with Leighton here.
