The 4 Features to Look For in Summer’s Must-Have Sandal

I am very passionate about this summer’s sandal trends. These aren’t just any sandals. There are four very specific style cues to look for if you want other women to worship your feet like a style shrine, as you sip rosé and ask them to stop making a fuss.
The muse tying it all together has oriental origins, and it’s through that lens of classic simplicity we predict these sandals will win summer. We’ve kept the edit tight, but we’ll continue to update as more options become available.
A word of advice—stick to black, white, brown or neutrals. This trend is best worn in a thoroughly understated way.
