With summer only a week away, it’s time to put the final touches on your warm weather wardrobe. There are certain shoes every girl should have in her closet this season and I’ve found fantastic deals on a few of these summer staples.
Mules are a must-have this summer and this shoe from Old Navy is a perfect pick. It’s easy, effortless and pairs well with a variety of looks. Available in a cognac brown and black, it features a 3″ stacked heel and an open toe. Regularly priced around $40, the shoe is on sale now for $25. Shop here.
Every girl needs a pair of versatile sandals that she can take from day to date. These caged gladiator-style sandals from Forever21 will do that with ease. I love the pale coral color and laser cut details! Pair with cutoff shorts and a crop top or graphic tee for a casual look or kick it up a notch with a flirty floral print dress. Also available in a seafoam green, you can snag these sandals for $17.90. Shop here.
These casual shoes practically scream “summer.” Espadrilles add a laid-back vibe to any look and I’m really enjoying all the fun prints and vibrant colors that Alexis Leroy has to offer. Many of the brand’s flat espadrilles are on sale now on Amazon for just $19.99. Shop the nautical-inspired style above (and discover others) here.
Canvas shoes are a summer favorite and, personally, I like to have a pair of slip-ons and a pair of lace-ups. However, if I could only have one pair of canvas shoes, I’d go with these. I like the fun tribal print but it’s the colors that really win me over; summer is made for vibrant hues. These Groove sneakers are also available in camo, cheetah, floral and arrow prints, and they vary in price. This particular design will cost you between $19-$25, depending on price. Shop here.
Stilettos are always sexy but something about the warmer weather makes me want to wear wedge heels. This pair from Breckelles is available in 8 amazing shades including a metallic rose gold, light denim (pictured), black, tan and white. Some styles offer a faux suede wrapped heel, every pair is perfection. They’ll boost you up 3.5″ and add support with an ankle strap. You can score your favorite style for $22.95. Shop here.
So, we’ve got affordable mules, wedge heels, espadrilles, canvas sneakers and versatile sandals – what’s your essential summer shoe?
