Celebrities are making cases for under-the-radar summer sandals that resemble the style everyone has

It's no secret that Birkenstock sandals have taken over Hollywood. Countless celebrities have worn the iconic summer shoe for decades, but the stars seem to prefer a more stylish pair of buckle sandals these days.

On May 30th, Gigi Hadid was spotted in a helicopter in New York in a pair of shoes that made us want to try twice. With molded cushioning, genuine leather upper, and an adjustable buckle covered in leather, the Matilde sandal from luxury Italian brand M. Gemi is similar to Birkenstock's original Arizona sandal but with a much more sophisticated look. The supermodel opted for a luxurious brown version of the sandals, which have red padding for a comfortable feel.

Then just days later, on June 1st, Lucy Hale stepped out in a pair of white shoes with classic cork soles, first for a walk with her dog and then for coffee alone.

The M.Gemi sandal offers all the comfort and support you'd love from the more famous brands, but with a subtle, sophisticated vibe. Wearing a pair of M.Gemi slides with an evening gown or sheer skirt this summer will make you look and feel less casual and more elegant. Of course, they cost more than your average pair of buckle sandals, but the luxurious Italian leather will last you years of everyday wear.

Camilla Cabello is also a fan of the brand: while on vacation in Italy last week, the "Bam Bam" singer wore a pair of lavender knit M. Gemi slides, which she flaunted in two Instagram posts. Although the Cabello color range is nearly sold out, the fall is available in champagne black, white, and gold - all on sale. 

(If you're desperate to own a pair in a gorgeous purple, this lightweight rubber-soled mule is as eye-catching as Cabello's pickaxe.) M.Gemi also offers plenty of stylish, high-quality heels in modern, bright colors like the Kelly Green, a shoe perfect for a summer wedding.
