Here at Heels.com we have a little shoe that surprised everyone and did so well that we had to make waiting lists – and sometimes when we would get more in stock and call people off the waiting list, they would scream like they won the lottery!

Anyway, this shoe is hot – the Laura Brandon Gladiator sandal.

Well, it seems Chinese Laundry thought so as well, and created their own version, the Sudoku sandal.

Vanessa Hudgens wanted to get in on this style too – I spotted her over at Just Jared a few days ago, wearing the Chinese Laundry version, and they are now doing a giveaway!

We love this gladiator style – it looks great with pants, dresses, shorts – and it is extremely versatile while being comfortable and it still has that attitude that really makes the style special.
