SANDALS never go out of style. . .

Nomatter how we try to escape this truth about fashion progression, fact is, fashion styles repeat themselves. It’s not like an every ten years cycle but, the reemergence of the old is enough to recognize the consistency. Certain styles always resurface eras after their first introductions, like palazzo pants for insistence. They first entered the market in the late ’60s and trended through the ’70s. Note that Wide-leg trousers were one of the biggest trouser trends of 2022. So, if you invested in them, know that they’re still trending in 2023.

But sandals! Sandals seem to be the one clothing item that is consistent. The existing styles never go out of fashion. Though sandals’ styles vary, the important point to remember is that year after year designers recreate the same shoe to look different by adding anything from color, fabric and added other accents or trimmings like beads, flowers, ribbons, bows, and more to make the appearance of the sandals appear different from last year’s or the year before styles. Classic sandals are the winners in any summer wardrobe. No matter your style there’s no denying the power of anchoring an outfit with a timeless shoe. Of course, it can be hard to unearth the best styles, especially with the influx of here-today, gone-tomorrow trends. But footnote this—the sandal is one of the sexiest clothing items ever designed and the style remains constant.

The trick to ensuring you don’t end up regretting your choices is to look for ever-enduring shapes designed and crafted with high-quality craftsmanship. Second, you want to assure their comfort. And that’s not too difficult to accomplish when shopping for sandals, just make sure that you steer away from the over-the-top designs. Most likely they will not be comfortable or last through the next season.

For instance, Cardi B’s geometric platform sandal is captured here and though they beautifully complement her outfit, they’re not a pair to invest in unless can afford to invest in an expensive shoe you wear a few times only.

Back to comfort and beauty, at the most luxe end of the scale, there are The Row’s ultra-sleek flip flops, which are the epitome of quiet luxury, thanks to the easy-to-slip-on silhouette and expertly crafted design.

On the other side of the price spectrum, the beloved double-buckle Birkenstocks and the woven details on Castañer’s espadrilles complete your summer attire spectacularly.
