There are a few shoe silhouettes that reign supreme this time of year, and I’d venture a guess that a pair of flat sandals is one of the key styles in your rotation. Hey, it makes perfect sense. That ideal pick is not only comfortable due to the flat design but also easy and stylish. And sure, you may have a few go-to ensembles you wear with those tried-and-true sandals, but I thought I’d give you some more ideas right here for inspiration.
After going through my Saved folder on Instagram, I noticed there is a range of directional pieces and outfits the fashion crowd is opting for when they’re wearing everything from flip-flops to slides. For the most part, the looks in question are all simple yet trend-forward and work flawlessly with an effortless pair of flat sandals (or a variety of other shoes, for that matter).
Keep scrolling for A+ outfit ideas. You’ll also find shopping picks for a smattering of sleek sandals.
For an especially polished yet cool silhouette, consider a lightweight blazer with a tank and shorts. Chunkier flat sandals complete the look.
Keep it effortless with a trend-forward padded-shoulder tank, straight-leg jeans, and cute strappy sandals.
You can't go wrong with a beautiful floral dress for summer. Slip into your go-to pair of slides, and you're set.
A skirt teamed with a forward knit like a sweater-vest is quite elevated with black sandals.
Into flip-flops? Consider pairing them with loose jeans and an oversize blouse for an of-the-moment vibe.
