The Simple Dress Style Fashion People Wear With Sandals

Okay, I'm saying the obvious here, but a good pair of sandals is undoubtedly the key to a well-balanced summer wardrobe. Find the right pair and they can be worn with so many different outfits, especially if they are comfortable. Right now, every fashion person I follow on Instagram is wearing with flat sandals—either flip-flops, strappy sandals, slides or fishermans—with a flowy black maxi or midi dress.

This simple outfit with a throw-on-and-go nature is effortless and always chic. I love how you can toss on the black dress that works best for you, slip into a pair of sandals, and you're ready to go. Below you'll uncover how style setters wear flowy black dresses and sandals. If you want to add items to your closet, there are also inspired shopping picks.
