As we head into the warmer months, spring is the perfect time to ditch the black and inject some lighter and brighter colors into your wardrobe. Whether you’re a maximalist or a minimalist, we can all agree that accessories are the easiest way to do just that. As a footwear lover, I am fixating on the definitive shoe color trends that are taking center stage this season. These five spring shoe colors are all you need to add a healthy dose of happiness to your closet stat. Trust me, it’s hard not to have a smile on your face when you see these fresh hues.
Take a peek below for a few ways to start incorporating these five spring colors into your wardrobe now. Trust me: It’s a lot easier than you think. I found it impossible to not want to give these colors a go. You’ll find all your favorite styles here—whether that be a strappy sandal, sporty sneaker, or Mary Jane flat. So go on and get a head start on shopping for these shades now—they are sure to go fast. From zesty, bright green to the antithesis of last year’s hot pink, these five spring shoe colors are sure to transform your whole closet.
PALE PINK
If last year was the season of Barbie pink, the tides have turned in favor of something lighter. Pale pink ruled the runways, and it’s only natural that we see this color trend hitting stores currently from some of our favorite shoe brands. We love the pastel tone styled with khaki pants or ecru jeans for a modern take.
Mesh is still trending, so lean on these as your new everyday ballerina flats.
If you haven't tried the Klara yet, you are missing out.
The gold-tone detail on these sandals is stunning.
We can't help it. We want to live in mesh flats all season long.
The grommets on these mules give them a little edge.
As the temperatures heat up, trade in your black Birkenstocks for something sweeter.
CHERRY RED
Red is still going strong in our books, but we are gravitating toward super-bright cherry tones for spring rather than the slightly deeper hues of winter. This bold red mixes perfectly with your favorite checked blazers and denim now, while we start to transition our closets toward the warmer months. Wear with white summer dresses come June.
You can't go wrong with a classic. These have a timeless quality.
Simple Strappy Kitten Heels
Wear with jeans for a night out to spice up your look.
The buckle straps on these sandals feel very of-the-moment.
Another heritage classic, but in bright red, it feels totally new.
Another chic mesh style.
Lean into something Y2K-inspired with these strappy kitten heels.
UNBORING BEIGE
You might think this is a cop-out as a color, but hear us out. Think of this putty tone as your new neutral for spring. Forget the black and chocolate-brown footwear of winter, and start mixing this in with all your everyday, ready-to-wear favorites. Major bonus points if you match your shoes to your bag.
A little bit of a splurge, but the leather quality on these makes them worth it.
Love the frayed cotton details.
These T-strap flats are perfect for work with cropped trousers.
This color works for evening, too. Just grab it in heel form.
You're gonna live in these sandals all season long.
These Mary Jane flats are just too cute (and easy to wear!).
BRIGHT GREEN
Maybe we are inspired by the changing nature around us, but a peppy green feels very of-the-moment. This zesty shade is the perfect balance between a fresh, grassy hue and a heritage, retro shade. Mix it with other bold colors if you’re daring or simply a white T-shirt and blue denim for a cool effect.
This sneaker is all we want to wear right now.
This style continues to be an editor favorite.
If you favor a sneaker with a vintage twist, these are for you.
For those who just want a hint of color.
These were made for alfresco dinner dates and aperitifs on the terrace.
The traditional Venetian slipper gets a cool twist with a strapped version.
BABY BLUE
Pastels for spring might be obvious, but this season, baby blue really is making its return. When it comes to styling, forget the full monochrome look. We recommend mixing it in with unexpected pieces like a leopard-print pencil skirt or simple black kick-flares for instant edge.
Dressed up or down, you'll wear these on repeat.
We love the idea of these paired with an all-black ensemble and khaki trench coat for an instant kick.
These are actually made from denim. How cool is that?
Again, we can't help ourselves. Mesh is so versatile.
Just so comfortable.
Pair with a floral sundress for an edgier take on spring dressing.
