Perhaps it’s that pedicure I’ve just been for, but at this precise moment, all I can think about are sandals. I’ve only invested in one pair this season (Dune’s Longisland chunky flip-flops, in case you were wondering), and now that summer is officially upon us, I now realise that I seriously lack in the sandal department.
I only buy new sandals every other year, or longer if I can help it, so I can only assume that in 2019, I decided to rid myself of all my tatty sandals come autumn with the view of replenishing them in 2020. Considering last year was something of a write-off, it’s only now that I see I neglected to do so.
There’s an upside to starting from scratch, though. It means I can invest in versatile styles that will form my core collection, pairs I’ll wear summer after summer. And there are a few categories I’ve set my sights on. From sexy slingbacks to comfy sliders, staples make up the majority of my sandal wish list. Still, there are a few trending pairs I’m tempted by, including ones with tie ankles, chain details and stacked soles. Scroll on to see what I think are the best sandals for women this summer, and perhaps you’ll be able to fill a gap in your sandal collection as you go.
