Last week, I wore my first pair of sandals of the season unapologetically in the East Coast weather. And I didn't need to carry around an extra pair of boots or closed-toe shoes—spring really is here! I could go immediately buy a cold latte with extra ice to celebrate, but I'm ushering in the arrival of good weather the way I know best: shopping for sandals.
It's not that anyone really needs a reason to buy cute shoes. I think anytime is the best time for shoe browsing, but you can't deny it feels extra relevant right now. Below, I've scoured the depths of the internet to bring you 30 of the most visually pleasing pairs out there. Since color is the name of the game right now in terms of trends, I've included lots of strappy heels and flats in shades like tangerine, ocean blue, and marigold. But fans of neutrals can relax. There are stunning sandals in shades of chocolate and black, too.
You don't need a crystal ball to tell you these will be your go-to neutral heels all season.
