And The Winner Is… The Sandal!


It's safe to say that sandals are the most popular type of shoe on the planet. The fact that almost every wardrobe is home to a pair is reason enough for us to make such a bold statement!

A Breath of Fresh Air

Unlike many other types of footwear, sandals are far from restrictive (in every sense of the word!) Sandals are breathable and lightweight making them the perfect summer shoe. Be it on the beach, out to dinner or up in the mountains, this much-loved style of shoe is fit for almost every occasion. Better still, sandals don't require to you to wear one particular item of clothing on your bottom half. Skirts, shorts and trousers are all compatible, regardless of the style or pattern! From gladiator sandals and strappy stilettos to chunky clogs and wooden wedges, it's clear to see that sandals are by no means one-dimensional. Whether you're prepared to splash the cash or are feeling a little bit more frugal, there's a selection of sandals to suit every taste and budget here on Stylight. We know you're tempted, so go on, grab your favourite pair, there really is no excuse!

Comfort is Beauty

Although this type of shoe may possess a host of desirable qualities, there's often one main concern at the back of many-a shoe-lovers' mind when it comes to deciding whether to slip on a pair of sandals; discomfort. As well all know, the general consensus is that flip-flops, sling backs and other such "flimsy" types of footwear are bad for your feet. But that's where you're wrong! Thanks to brands such as FitFlop, a wide range of sandals are readily available for those of you who place great importance upon comfort when choosing which style to sport. Gone are the days when sandals were synonymous with sores! Throw on some comfy Crocs or some supportive Scholl sandals and you'll never have to worry again.

Stylight: Your Sandal Sanctuary

So what are you waiting for? Whether you're sucker for stilettos or a fiend for flats, Stylight is the perfect place to seek out the sandals that suit you best.

Wear and When: Warm-Weather Sandals for Every Outdoor Occasion

It’s time to kick off those fur-trimmed boots and trade them in for shoes perfect for outdoor adventures. Long days and late nights in the sun call for the proper footwear—that means we’re breaking out the sandals.

Take in the warm temperatures with hot sandals for every occasion. Guys and girls alike, we’re showing you the best sandals for the beach day BBQs and music festivals to come.

Beach Day

Slide your feet into flat footwear after a day of sandy toes. Beach days call for easy-access beach sandals that allow for quick drying and that  won’t trap sand.

Girls: Pair your favorite jeweled sandals with a sheer sarong and oversized sunglasses.
Guys: Transition your trunks from beach to street with neutral-toned flip-flops and a lightweight button down.

Park Picnic

Whether you’re sitting next to your best friend or someone a bit more special, a park picnic is the perfect place to incorporate practicality. Opt for a thick-soled flat sandal that can handle a spontaneous game of volleyball or walk around the park.

Girls: Finish your look with high-waisted shorts and a basic tee.
Guys: Cropped denim and a sporty cap will keep your look light.

Festival Festivities

Give popular festival fringe a new feel. Go for a durable leather sandal or gladiators with metallic trimmings that stand out in the sea of music fans.

Girls: Keep it casual with a flowing maxi dress and stacked bracelets.
Guys: For non-stop dancing you’ll want muted chino shorts and aviators.

Pool Party

Wear your rubber sandals with pride. Pool parties are the perfect place for simple slip-ons that take your feet from poolside relaxing to water wading in seconds. Don’t forget to check the soles for traction to prevent unwanted slips.

Girls: Go breezy with a romper and a colorful bikini.
Guys: A tank top and swimsuit is all you’ll need.

Stepping up your footwear means stepping out in a fresh pair of sandals. Be it a trusty pair of wedges or your favorite Birkenstocks, make sure your feet are equipped for some fun in the sun.
