It might perhaps be surprising, but the colour brown will be a big trend this summer!

A rich, dark brown goes with everything just like black, while creating a less sharp contrast in your look. Leather sandals in particular make this earthy shade look particularly elegant. Try it out!

Long, wraparound straps are going to be all the rage this summer! Sandals that wrap around the ankle multiple times create a layered look that adds a little something extra to any outfit.

You first saw them on sneakers, then on boots and loafers: now the flatform trend has taken over sandals too. Comfortable, walkable, and not too dressy, the flatform sandal is perfect if you want to add a bit of height without committing to a heel.
