Essential Summer Shoes 2020
In this blog post, I will be giving my list of essential summer shoe must-haves. These shoes can be worn with countless outfit combinations and most importantly they don't specifically target one particular style. So, there is something for everyone ( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ ).
Wedge Espadrilles
These are must-haves. I'm not joking. These shoes are comfortable and very stylish. You can wear them perfectly with flowy printed skirts, summer dresses, jeans, shorts, etc. The list can go on and on {´◕ ◡ ◕｀}.
These shoes have become quite popular recently and I don't think they are going anywhere any time soon. Personally I think you should get them in versatile colours such as white, black, and nude/beige because they are easy to style \ (•◡•) /.
These espadrilles are from Amazon and they have such good reviews; so I think you should check them out, just click on the picture (✿╹◡╹).
Seen on celebrities such as Meghan Markle, Emily Ratajkowski, Rosie Huntington Whiteley, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Anne Hathaway (◑‿◐✿).
Birkenstock sandals
These shoes are 10/10 for practicality and comfortableness. This makes them an amazing choice for days out eg: amusement parks, shopping where you'll be doing a lot of walking around. You can style them up with any casual look. There is a range of styles to choose from other than the classic (─‿─).
In my opinion, the Birkenstock Mayari thong sandal is my favourite because I like the toe loop design. Birkenstocks are very durable because they are made from good quality materials so they will last you for several years (◡‿◡✿).
These Birkenstock Mayari thong sandals are from Amazon and they come in a range of colours. Here is a metallic stone print sandal which looks really cool ヾ(⌐■_■)ノ♪.
Seen on celebrities such as Kendall Jenner, Miranda Kerr, Alexa Chung, and Dakota Johnson (◑‿◐).
White trainers
This goes without saying. Everyone needs a pair of white trainers as it gives any outfit a more casual look, which is perfect if you are running errands. The possibilities are endless: jeans, shorts, skirts, dresses, jumpsuits, rompers, etc (＊◕ᴗ◕＊).
Your white trainers need to be durable as you will find yourself reaching for these shoes all the time. No one can go wrong with converse, they are a classic shoe that you can't go without. I think low tops are better as you don't easy to put on. I love hi-tops but I just can't get them on without struggling ◔̯◔.
Converses have been seen on celebrities such as Beyonce, Gigi Hadid, Hailey Baldwin, Taylor Swift, Martha Hunt, Kaia Gerber, Michelle Obama, and Madonnaヽ（◕◡◕❀ฺ ）ノ.
Heeled Sandals
Heeled sandals are just what you need if you need to dress up a simple look. I would recommend going for a low or mid-heeled sandal as it's more practical. I wear block-heeled sandals, they are much easier to walk in because they provide more support (づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ.
Here is a block heeled sandal with a beautiful tortoiseshell buckle. It comes in 6 colours - Black, Beige, Beige linen, Grey, Mint Green, and Red Terracotta ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ.
Seen on celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Margot Robbie, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Chrissy Teigen, Rihanna, and Selena Gomez 〤◕‿◕〤.
Sliders and Flip Flops
These shoes aren't just meant for the pool and the beach, they can be worn on casual day outs. Sliders are comfortable and very popular among sports brands such as Nike, Puma, and Adidas ⁞ ᵕ ‿ ᵕ ⁞.
Flip flops are becoming more and more popular. Some people love them, some people hate them. I tend to dislike the basic plain flip flops but I like ones that have different and quirky designs (¬‿¬).
These are Croc sliders with cute gold flower charms on the straps˙ ͜ʟ˙.
Sliders have been seen on celebrities such as Rihanna, Gigi Hadid, Hailey Baldwin, Kylie Jenner, Zendaya, Snoop Dogg, Selena Gomez, and North West ｡^‿^｡.
Flip Flops have been seen on celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Hilary Duff, Britney Spears, Reese Witherspoon, Gwen Stefani, and Reese Witherspoon ٩(^ᴗ^)۶.
Stilettos
Okay, stilettos are not summer must-haves. They are a closet staple. Stillettos can be worn in nearly any occasion: weddings, parties, formals, etc. Their versatility makes them a universal favourite. They improve your posture and boost your self-confidence ( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ).
However, with beauty comes pain. These heels HURT A LOT. You can minimize the pain by taping your toes and wearing insoles. You should get them in red, nude, white, navy, and black ♫꒰･‿･๑꒱.
Seen on celebrities such as Victoria Beckham, Meghan Markle, Ashley Graham, Rita Ora, Jasmine Tookes, Jennifer Lopez, Lady Gaga, Selena Gomez, and Mariah Carey (─‿‿─).
