After many months of imprisoning my feet in hardy boots and chunky trainers, at last, the warmer weather means that freedom is in sight—and the prospect of slipping in to some strappy sandals is no longer just a pipe dream. As much as I'm doting on the elegant black sandals that are all over the shop fronts right now, I've actually caught wind of a new sandal trend that delivers even more summery energy in a wearable and playful way.
Already a favourite amongst fashion people all over my FYP, the red sandals trend is quickly gaining momentum this summer. The easiest way to add a splash of colour into your warm-weather wardrobe, the trend styles so well with the white skirts and black linen trousers that are everywhere right now, but looks all the more impactful when worn with vivid red dress or skirt.
With the ability to bestow your look with a playful Italian energy, the red sandals evoke notions of warm seaside days and striped swimwear—making it a packing-list no-brainer if you're holidaying this season.
From Vagabond's strappy pair to Reformation's kitten heel style, the market is rife with elegant red sandals this summer, and I have my eyes on more than one.
From barely-there styles to cool chunky pairs, read on to discover our edit of the best red sandals below.
