Summer sandals you can (probably) wear all day

A market haul of sexy spring/summer shoes to slide your flippers into.

Crazy to think what a few toes can do for an outfit. Something about seeing that slice of skin at the southern-most point of your bod just visually transforms everything going on above it. This is why we’re both so glad it’s finally time to bust this edit out: our sandal picks to free the foot this spring and summer.

Flat sandals for spring/summer are mandatory, but this year we’re drawn to a little more texture, shape and detail. Animal prints both scaly and furry are on the agenda. Red is still a thing. A big thing. Even the gorpcore devotees will find an excellent (and quite chic) option in our edit below.

To be more specific, in this week’s newsletter you’ll find:

• Seven ‘delicate’ sandals with a finer strap

• Six classic black sandals with a thicker strap (more suited to pounding the pavement, should that be of any concern for you right now)

• Seven options in a “colour” (mainly really elegant neutral tones like chocolate brown)

• 13 pairs of thongs (or flip flops if that’s easier off the tongue for you) — don’t let the number fool you, this is all very good news for your feet

Everything you’ll see in this edit is by an Australian label (as is our MO) and something we’d only recommend to a friend (that’s you).

We. Are. So. Back.

Delicate sandals with a finer strap

Amy Smilovic showing us how it’s done for spring….

A finer strap can sometimes mean less comfortable for multiple reasons. But look out for a soft leather, a cushioned footbed, or, if the straps aren’t super soft leather, then aim for a rounded strap.
