Barely-there strappy sandals you'll wear summer after summer
This could just be the season's most flattering shoe
You can call it another throwback to the Nineties – simple, barely-there, strappy sandal heels are one of the key shoe trends of the summer and it should come as no surprise. The perfect style to wear with trousers, a skirt or dress to a garden party, wedding, on holiday or a date night, they’re a key item in any summer wardrobe.
This season, both high-end fashion designers and more affordable retailers have released spins on the classic shoe. Bottega Veneta, Jimmy Choo, Gianvito Rossi and Isabel Marant are championing lust-worthy designs as well as the likes of Arket, & Other Stories and Russell & Bromley.
When selecting a pair to invest in, first think about how high you want to go. Some strappy heels are sky-high for natural-born heel lovers but if that’s not you, you can still get a slice of the style. Kitten heels are back too this season meaning you can find a heel height that works for you.
Next, consider which style you like. Do you want bright strappy sandals that give off instant summery vibes or do you want a more minimalist design that will work with no end of outfits you already own? Whichever you go for, we always advise asking yourself whether you’ll wear the style in years to come before purchasing.
To help you in your quest for the perfect strappy sandals, we’ve rounded up our 10 favourite pairs for the season.
