Celebs With Simple Style Wear These 7 Sandals Nonstop
If you're a regular Who What Wear reader, there's a good chance you've already clocked the short list of familiar faces in our trend reports and coverage. A-listers like Sofia Richie and Kendall Jenner are just a few celebrities whose simple, elevated style resonates. Whether they're dressed up for an event or stepping out to run errands, we're always paying close attention to what this group of minimalist dressers is wearing.
With summer style in peak rotation, we thought it was high time to narrow in on the sandals these celebs are reaching for repeatedly. Since we're fans of their simple style, it should come as no surprise that their taste in summer footwear is equally as timeless and classic. After reviewing the best celebrity outfits of summer 2023 (so far), we've put together the ultimate guide to classic celebrity sandals that this bunch is wearing on repeat. From elevated flip-flops to fisherman styles, keep scrolling to see and shop them all.
Flat Strappy Sandals
Celebrities like Richie were drawn to minimal, strappy styles this summer because they make for a sleek finish to everything from trousers to shorts.
Shop:
Elevated Flip-Flops
On Kendall Jenner: Ami Paris Dress; Tropic of C Bikini; Bottega Veneta Arco Raffia Tote; The Row Beach Flip Flop
Flip-flops are the epitome of classic summer sandals, but instead of the rubber thongs that might come to mind, celebs like Kendall Jenner and Jennifer Lawrence are into elevated leather versions. In fact, they both own the same flat pair from The Row.
Shop:
Crossover Slides
On Laura Harrier: Matteau dress; Saint Laurent bag and sunglasses
While not necessarily a trendy pick, crossover sandals are ultimately too timeless to be deemed "in" or "out," something Laura Harrier knows. While in Cannes, we spotted the actress wearing a pair in a very French way with a slip dress and sweater draped over her shoulders.
Shop:
Fisherman Sandals
On Hailey Bieber: The Row Fisherman Sandals ($1090)
Fisherman sandals are popping up again this summer, especially in the wardrobes of our favorite minimalist style stars. Hailey Bieber, for one, has worn her pair multiple times all over New York City with denim shorts and a tee.
Shop:
Gladiator Sandals
On Sofia Richie: Prada dress and Raffia Tote Bag ($1950); The Row sandals; Celine Rectangular Sunglasses ($390)
Leave it to Richie to bring back a sandal style we haven't thought about in years: gladiator sandals. While on her honeymoon, Richie wore a pair of strappy, ankle-tie sandals in the chicest way. It instantly made us question why we ever overlooked the style in the past.
Shop:
Double-Strap Sandals
On Jennifer Lawrence: Leset Margo Tee ($68) and Yoko Cargo Pants ($220); The Row bag and sandals
Jennifer Lawrence is the poster girl for simple summer style, so when she finished off her off-duty outfit of a white tee, linen pants, and a pair of two-strap sandals, we took note.
Shop:
Buckle Slides
On Katie Holmes: Birkenstock 1774 Arizona Ramses Sandals ($470)
It speaks volumes that celebs like Katie Holmes pick a mainstay like Birkenstocks when they can opt for designer footwear. Her comfortable Arizona slides are a classic that pairs flawlessly with all her low-key looks.
