If someone told me that I could only buy one fashion item for the rest of my days (which I hope no one ever does), I would probably choose shoes. I adore all types of footwear—flats, sandals, heels, boots, sneakers, mules, slides—but at the moment, I'm focused on all types of spring and summer shoes.
There are a lot of jaw-droppingly good shoes out there right now, and it's slightly overwhelming, so I made a list. On it are It shoes from the likes of Versace and Gucci, sparkly heels, comfortable sandals, colorful sneakers, and plenty of other pairs I can't stop thinking about. I'm sure that any one of these pairs will get you plenty of compliments and will make all of your outfits this season significantly more stylish.
Scroll to shop my shoe picks before they fly out of stock. (And trust me—they will.)
