The sartorial run-up to summer is notoriously tough to navigate with a knit on standby for the morning commute while our umbrella still hasn’t found time to shake dry after last week’s storm.
But arm-in-arm with the new season comes a brand new excuse to go shopping. All together now: hurrah!
The first item on our agenda? A pair of sandals (or three) that’ll see us through until autumn in one fell Instagram-worthy swoop…

Barely-There Sandals
All hail the shoe that has garnered permanent feed fixture status in seasons gone by. Call them what you will (the straps-up-your-leg sandal, the barely-there shoe, the wrap-around-fall-down-wrap-up-again throw-ons), there’s no greater option this summer.
Jokes aside, courtesy of their season-on-season staying power you can invest in the sandal now and expect to wear them well into autumn.
In case you’re in need of some further nudging towards the till, they’ll look great with everything from tailored city shorts to that Zara dress everyone is harping on about.
Shop our top picks below, you’re very welcome.
Office-To-The-Beach Slides
When on the hunt for an investment sandal sometimes it’s best to keep things simple. May we offer up the ultimate trans-seasonal option?
Enter: the humble slide.
Available in colourways and fabrics to suit all sartorial tastebuds, it’s the most sensible (and stylish) purchase you’ll make all year.
Without further ado, shop our favourites below.
The most coveted mules
Forget last season’s clompy western-inspired mules, as the magazine spreads are plastered with a chicer take on the trend this summer.
We’re talking everything from snakeskin-effect slip-ons to dainty wooden heels dressy (but not too dressy) enough for Saturday brunch.
Peruse with pleasure, my friend.
The return of the heeled thongs
All hail the unanticipated return of the heeled thong/flop flop/raised Havaiana – whatever you want to call it.
A trend resurgence we all love to hate (admittedly love), one of the ugliest trends of the podiatry circuit is back for another round this season and we’re here for it.
Simon Miller’s cult shoe will liven up any t-shirt, jeans and blazer combo as soon as you squeeze your tootsies in.
While we also have our hearts set on the Dear Frances beauties that no amount of refreshing your Instagram feed can banish.
