Sensual Sandals Are Trending on the 2018 ESPYs Red Carpet

The 2018 ESPY Awards are finally here and sandals are trending on the red carpet with the night’s host Danica Patrick stealing the spotlight in a statement-making caged style.

Walking the red carpet with her boyfriend, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, the 36-year-old former race car driver showed off a one-shoulder black minidress boasting golden round studs. The cherry on top of her head-turning look was her black gladiator sandals featuring a sexy lace-up design up the front and circular cutouts all over.

Meanwhile, Patrick’s 34-year-old NFL star beau, who previously dated Olivia Munn up until 2017, looked dapper on her arm in a classic black suit teamed with black patent leather loafers.
