Chunky Sandals
If you are seeking comfort intermingled with high fashion, perhaps a chunky sandal is the footwear of choice for you. These thick-soled “flatforms” skillfully combine style and function which will make them a popular must-have for the upcoming season. What I love the most about these chunky sandals is that they can vary so much in aesthetic and style. You will see these shoes in a variety of colors with different straps and embellishments that truly make each pair unique in itself. As a bonafide footwear junkie, I can say this is one of the top spring and summer shoe trends you will want to tap into.

Platforms
Like many of the recent trends, platforms are a flashback from a few decades ago. Their resurgence only continues to gain momentum with every passing day. Everything from sky-high heels to bold colored pumps to tall mary janes are making their way back into our hearts this season. This is definitely a footwear trend that practically begs to be taken out and about to posh dinners, nightclubs, and soirees – perfect for the social butterfly who is constantly dashing from place-to-place. You can even take the trend further and pair your sizable platform heels with some fun socks for a unique spin on the trend.

Colors of the Rainbow
In regards to the dopamine dressing trend I mentioned earlier, much of that aesthetic boils down to the choice of colors you choose to wear. Evidently, this naturally translates to pop colors of neons
and other standout colors that make you feel good! Well, this trend has trickled all the way down to footwear and we are seeing a lot of the popular silhouettes reinvented in saturated colors. Whereas a neutral colored shoe might coordinate with an outfit, a bold hued shoe is meant to stand out and become the focal point of your entire look!

Wedges
The wedge shoe is considered a bit divisive as people either love or despise them. Regardless of what your personal preference might be, I am just here to convey that the wedge has made its way back into mainstream fashion. Although there are more traditional designs out there, the wedge has definitely received its modern-day makeover as there are plenty of new iterations with more intricate details and sculptural elements. Personally, I can vouch for wedges. I think they make for a nice change in silhouette this spring and summer.

Embellished Sandals
The last of the spring and summer shoe trends I wanted to highlight are of the embellished variety. By now, you are probably familiar with the Mach & Mach bow heels that took over Instagram overnight. Ultra-feminine embellishments are being added to strappy sandals and chic kitten heels. This is a shoe that will certainly elevate any outfit you decide to wear them with. Crystals, bows, and gemstones are bedazzling your favorite shoes this season to make for a luxurious aesthetic.
