Heels for your Summer trip!
There’s something about spring and summer—perhaps the anticipation of travel—that makes me crave a refresh in my wardrobe. Winter tends to lull me into a cycle of practicality, layering for warmth and function rather than style. While there’s nothing wrong with that, the arrival of spring feels like an invitation to have fun with fashion again. One of the easiest ways to transition out of winter’s monotony? A great pair of statement sandals.
From spring to summer, everything feels lighter, brighter, and more effortless—the kind of air that lingers on your skin, sunshine that deepens into golden hour, and colors that evoke the bliss of rinsing off after a perfect beach day. I want sand between my toes, sun on my skin, and shoes that instantly elevate my vacation wardrobe.
The easiest way to make any resort look—or any warm-weather outfit, for that matter—feel intentional and polished is with an eye-catching shoe. If it isn’t striking in color, then it should stand out in shape, and if not in shape, then through texture, embellishment, or unexpected details. And when an outfit feels uninspired, a bold shoe can instantly bring it to life.
While I love a bold color moment, I always come back to the effortless elegance of cream, ivory, and soft white. Feminine and refined, these picks stand out with thoughtful appliqué and texture. And for my engaged girls—they double as the perfect wedding weekend staple.
I couldn’t resist pairing soft blues and browns—an homage to my childhood bedroom walls (and maybe yours too if you were a PBTeen fanatic). Aquazzura’s slingbacks nod to nautical charm, while The Row’s brown sandals feel like a whisper of fabric caught in a summer breeze. And the jelly tops on Veronica Beard’s pool-blue pair? A grown-up take on the jelly sandals we all lived in as kids.
There’s a certain magic to the golden hues of a tropical sunset—vivid oranges and textured florals capture its vibrancy, while butter yellow brings a soft, creamy sophistication. Pale yellow, especially, feels endlessly wearable, slipping seamlessly into every season with an understated elegance.
Black still holds its place in spring and summer, grounding both bold and muted hues with effortless sophistication. Paired with turquoise or mint? Undeniably chic. Khaite leans playful with a rainbow of beads on their latest sandal drop, while Jimmy Choo’s newest release—spotted on Instagram from
—feels like an instant winner. And Loewe’s mules? A dreamy fusion of Monet and The White Lotus, where creamy whites and soft greens melt into a rich black foundation. Wherever Spring and Summer take you, let your toes be nestled in something that makes a statement!Share your personal favorite pairs in the comments!!! I’m sure we would all love to get some more inspiration as vacations ensue.
Enjoy! Xoxo
