Just as quickly as last March happened, it's here again and with it comes three new sandal trends we’ve been tracking just for you. Style, comfort and sophistication are a click away with these personal favorites that will not only elevate your look but keep you cool for the approaching warmer months. There’s something in this list for everyone, whether you’re an avid walker or want to turn heads at the beach this summer. Whatever your taste or flair, we’ve got you covered.
1. The Strappy Sandal
For optimum security and comfort, choose the strappy sandal. Guaranteed to keep you cool wherever you may be, this sandal can be really cute. For an edgier vibe, choose the Blair Sandal from Dr. Martens. This black, leather platform sandal has a cushion contoured footbed and ankle strap to give a little grunge to your step. For a nostalgic vibe, the Candied Platform Sandal is giving us all the 90s jelly sandal energy. This platform shoe comes in three shades and makes a playful statement. For our more nature focused fellows we suggest the Teva Midform Universal Sandal, it's a slightly platformed shoe that’s perfect for walks and comes in eight nature inspired styles.
2. The Slide
The “slide” sandal up until recently was simply the sandal you threw on for a late night run to the grocery store or a shoe we just wore around the house. Now with an endless assortment of colors and styles, we’ve found more reasons to wear this sandal. The Adidas Adilette Comfort Slide is the original. This athleisure basic has the signature three stripe band, a cushy footbed that molds itself to fit your foot and ten different colors and patterns to choose from. From lounging to lunch-ing this slide has range. For a more sophisticated slide, the Gucci Rubber Logo Sandal has a block heel and a square toe that literally elevates that pep in your step. Let everyone know you have taste with the Gucci raised lettering on the glossy band.
3. The Mule
What’s behind door #3? The mule. An appropriate choice for a summer’s night out and definitely a fancier option than our previous two contenders. Despite this higher caliber of sandal, it is very versatile and can be worn with jeans, pants, skirts, shorts and can dress up any other kind of trousers. The Jeffrey Campbell Chauffeur Slide Sandal is our obsession for mules hands down. The feathery band commands attention and compliments as it flatters and lengthens the legs. It’s very vampy and we’re kind of here for it in both the pink and white color combinations. And there you have it, this spring’s hottest sandal trends. Now which will you choose?
