Oh warm weather and the joy of sandals! I have been looking forward to the warmer weather all winter long so I could finally but the boots away and break out the sandals. This Spring I will be shopping for some flat sandals, some wedges, and some cute heeled sandals for a big night out!

The trends are constantly changing each year when it comes to shoes. Here are some of my favorite spring trends for sandals! Be sure to read on to the bottom of this post to see how you can score any (Or ALL of Them!) at 35% OFF + Get FREE Shipping!

LACE UP SANDAL

Lace up shoes were a big hit this past fall season and the trend has now made it’s way into a summer version. Lace up sandals give interest to the ankle and pair perfectly with shorts, skirts, and ankle jeans. When it comes to sandals, it’s all in the details. Fringed Strap Ends, patterned sandal designs, and bright colors are what makes these lacey sandals special.

Metallics & Neutrals

STRAPPY GLADIATOR SANDAL/ GEOMETRIC CUTOUT SANDAL

Metallics and neutrals work in the same way but do entirely different things. Neutral sandals that come in a shade close to your natural skin color (or slightly darker or lighter) give the appearance of an elongated leg. Wearing neutral sandals can give you lovely long legs without the price of wearing a sandal with a heal. Neutral colors also go with anything you decide to wear and can be mixed with metals, brights, and patterns.

ELASTIC STRAP SANDAL/ STRAPPY GLADIATOR SANDAL

Metallics work just like neutrals because they can also be worn with anything. My most worn pair of sandals are a rose gold metallic because they seem to spice up anything I wear and I can pair them with any purse, belt, or outfit. A pair of metallic gold or silver sandals are an absolute summer essential and owning a pair will make shoe packing for summer vacations simple and easy.

GLADIATOR SANDALS

LACE UP GLADIATOR SANDAL

The gladiator sandal trend has been around for a while but with the revival of summer music festivals, gladiator sandals are making an even stronger comeback this year. Pairing simple pieces with knockout gladiator sandals can pull your whole summer look together. Adding a little wild card into your summer sandal wardrobe is a must this season!

Flatbed Sandals

DOUBLE STRAP SANDAL

These sandals really are as comfortable as they look. Running errands? Racing to the pool?Walking home from yoga? Throw a pair of these on instead of your nasty old rubber flip flops. Your feet will thank you and you will look more chic without putting in any extra effort. Flatbed sandals pair nicely with joggers, sporty shorts, and skinny jeans.

Fancy Flip Flops

ARCH BAND FLIP-FLOP

Owning a pair of fancy flip flops is a must in the summer time. Cheap rubber flip flops have a reputation of breaking and wearing out quickly. Swapping out your traditional flip flops for a more dressed up version will give you a lot more versatility. A pair like these flip flops can be worn to the beach with a swimsuit or pair beautifully with a sweet little sundress on an evening out.

Happy Shopping!

There’s not much more in this world I love than shoes. Especially spring shoes. I swear my feet get claustrophobic in the winter, being tucked away in boots for months on end, and when spring finally comes, I can’t wait to get into a fabulous pair of sandals. My feet breathe a sigh of relief immediately, and as much as I love boots, sandals will always be my favorite shoe.

To update my wardrobe this spring, I have been on the lookout for the perfect pair of sandals that would be a great go-to shoe that would go with everything, and is so comfortable I can wear it on lots of warm walks this summer, or out running errands for the day.

Every year I go through this, I look for the perfect spring sandal, and I usually end up buying 5 or 6 and only wearing one of them most of the season. And boy do I wear that shoe. Sandals are my most lived in shoe, and I’ve loved a few pair so much I completely wore them out in a season or two, which almost never happens with any other shoes I own.

When searching for my perfect spring sandal, I get them at a height I will be comfortable wearing in day in and day (I’m tall so I don’t always want a super tall platform, but something with a shorter heel that is still easy to dress up, but will be comfortable enough for me to wear all spring and summer long.

I’m already guilty of buying a few pairs of sandals this season that I thought would be “the shoe” but hasn’t been yet, that was until I got to try out Taos Footwear from Sole Provisions. I had heard of Taos shoes before but had never tried them. I knew they were known for being extremely comfortable, as any footwear you pick up from Sole Provisions, so I couldn’t wait to get a pair and see if they would become the “it sandal” for me this year,

When I found the Holiday Camel wedge, I was instantly in love. It’s a great height, just a couple of inches, and is made with a super soft, and flexible leather that really moves with your feet. The footbed is built with a flexible, padded countour-cork latex, making it incredibly durable, well cushioned, and perfect for long summer walks!

When I got my Taos shoes from Sole Provisions, I tried them on right away. What did surprise me is that they have a velcro strap, which honestly I kind of loved! Makes it super easy to get in and out of in a hurry (Ideal for that “it shoe” for spring). I loved the pretty woven strap details and the cute little button embellishments on this shoe as well. The details dress up this sandal so nicely that you can wear it with anything this spring! I paired mine with a pretty summer dress to show how these shoes can easily be dressed up for a night out look too, as well as for running errands around during the day.

When I wore around my Taos sandals, ahhhh, foot heaven! These sandals feel like you’re already broken-in favorite pair of shoes. I wore them around everywhere for a couple of days and no rubbing or blistering of any kind. These sandals move with you perfectly, and the footbed is insanely comfortable. No horrible rubbing from the straps either. They are designed to work with the foot, with every movement.
