These are the 5 summer shoe trends you need to invest in this summer

The 60s vibe is back for summer 2020. Proof of this can be seen in the ubiquity of Roman sandals. Designs adorned with studs and tassels, like these from Valentino’s collection, will be everywhere for the next few months.

These Etro sandals have thin strips that begin at the thin sole and climb up to the knee. A butterfly on the big toe adds a flourish to the otherwise minimalist, classic style.

Christian Dior presented the perfect pair of sandals for walking along the sea or anywhere you choose to enjoy a summer stroll. Wear pants or a chic boho dress to tie together the look.

Sandals like these by Temperley London, with a suede finish and laces that pass through rows of eyelets and wrap around the top are the cherry on top of your looks this season.

This option offered by Stella McCartney isn’t totally flat. It has a sensible heel to elevate its informal style.

Platform sandals make walking around a few inches taller easy and comfortable. If you’re familiar with espadrilles, you’ll be able to transition flawlessly to sandals with jute soles, contrast stitching and strips of leather like these from Michael Kors’ collection. They’ll look great with casual pants, skirts and dresses.

Simone Rocha showed eye-catching sandals with lug soles. They’re a great option when you’d like to wear sandals on rainy days.

Ultra chunky soles were also seen in the Prada runway show. They’re set to be the it accessory this spring and summer.

Giambattista Valli clearly believes that platform sandals can be an elegant reflection of your style without sacrificing all-day wearability.

The loafers shown in Fendi’s spring-summer collection are only a taste of how important this shoe will be when the weather improves. The brand’s leather heeled loafers featuring high and textured heels are the rejuvenated version of this incredibly elegant classic.

If this fall-winter we saw loafers get taller with thick rubber soles, this season we’ll watch them grow with geometrically shaped heels like this pair by Louis Vuitton.

The traditional aesthetic of this shoe, which Prada presented looking polished and luxurious, easily lends itself to both casual and formal looks.

This shoe is often designed with metal embellishments like the chains seen in Tory Burch’s fashion show.

For many people, thong sandals are only an option for trips to the beach or pool. However, you aren’t going to see the traditional rubber flip-flop this season. The sandals Marni showed on the runway have a wooden sole and a bit of lift, reminiscent of the minimalism seen from the mid to late 90s.

Another wooden-soled option with a square toe and a low heel was seen in Givenchy’s spring-summer runway show.

These Valentino sandals with tassels at the top and studs on the straps are a super cute option for all your summertime looks.

Made of leather and printed with a textured animal print, these classic Hermès sandals are perfect for everyday wear.

Metallic finishes remain on-trend this spring-summer. These soft sandals by Miu Miu are versatile, elegant and will add the finishing touch to a cute summer outfit.

There are spring-summer sandals out there for all tastes. There are sandals you’ll want to have in your suitcase during your well-deserved vacation on the beach and then there are the ones that are so beautiful they’re the only accessory you’ll need. These are the latter. Giambattista Valli designed these gorgeous satin shoes with a broach that is difficult to ignore. They’re sure to elevate any outfit.

These sandals with special embellishments shown on the runway by Ralph & Russo have the je ne sais quoi to become the key component of your look.

You can also jazz up a simple shape with discrete strass embellishments on the straps. One great example of precisely that is this design by Chanel.

If you love striking footwear but tend to go with flats, let these Miu Miu sandals inspire your summer shoe choice.
