Take A Break from High Heels — Opt for Sandals

Take A Break from High Heels — Opt for Sandals

Let’s face it: we all love how sexy that towering pair of high heels can make us feel but when summer rolls around, it’s all sandals, all the time. So, if you’re sick of your favourite stilettos or growing weary of your closed wedge heels, it might just be time to take a break from the heights of your uber high fashion heels and opt for the comfort of a cool pair of designer sandals instead.

Slipping into an easy-going shoe doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style. Sure, opting for sandals offers a different look, and you might decide that you don’t want to don a pair of lace-up flat gladiator sandals under your sequin designer maxi dress at the gala dinner and dance. But do not dismiss the range of outfits for which sandals are an ideal accessory – all the way from dress up to dressing way down.  

Jean shorts and bathing suit cover ups aren’t the only clothing option you can choose when considering wearing sandals. Relax the look of your flowing sundresses with your favourite pair of slip-ons or flip-flops or amp up your outfit’s sophistication with kitten heels or urban-looking black leather sandals. Fancier occasions, from garden parties to summer weddings could call for a gemstone embellished thong which will add some bling to everything from designer wear to a high end silky wedding gown. Really, the possibilities are endless. It all depends on your own personal style!

Fashion is all about letting loose with your creativity and having fun, after all, and that means wearing what makes you feel your very best. So try out that pair of fuzzy black shearling sandals with skinny jeans or select a pair of lace open toes or a fun indigo striped satin wedge heel sandal that’ll steal the show. From silver stud embellished clogs to flat gladiators with a cork sole, the list of possibilities for what you can wear either out on the town or strolling the beach are as long as the longest summer night – and equally as enjoyable.

Whether you choose sling-backs or designer flip-flops, flats or heels, sandals are the go-to shoe for summer outfits of any kind. Pair them with fancier fashions or slip them on with your bikini and towel before you hit your beach umbrella. Either way, enjoy the time off from high heels and let your legs relax along with the rest of you because in summer, that’s the name of the game.
