Shoes, glorious shoes! Summer has finally kicked off, and I, for one, am getting particularly excited to sport some of my coolest new kicks I’ve unearthed from my favorite retailers this month. There’s no doubt I have a soft spot for shoes (one peek inside my closet and you’ll understand my infatuation)—especially ones that look way more expensive than their price tag.
Today, I’m sharing some of my favorites with you for the summer season ahead. From modern sporty sandals to wear with your floral midi dresses to chic mules that will take you from meetings to margaritas in style, below are the chicest I’ve spotted on the ‘gram and at some of my favorite retailers that are worth adding to your cart this season. Moreover, they’re all on-trend and under $100 (plus, lots of summer sales right now!), so you’ll have more dollars to put toward that last-minute warm-weather getaway.
Strappy Sandals
If you don't own a pair of strappy heeled sandals yet, it's time to scoop some up for the season ahead. Every cool girl worth her salt is wearing them on Instagram right now, and they're perfect for every soirée on your google calendar.

Sporty Sandals
Call them "ugly," call them "tourist" sandals, call them "dad" sandals—love them or hate them, there's no denying that sporty sandals are straight up eclipsing every other style right now. Plus, they're the most comfortable shoes we've ever slipped our feet into. While prices can range up to $600 for a cool designer pair, there are plenty of under-$100 offerings that nail the trend perfectly.

Toe-Ring Sandals
I'm obsessed with toe-ring sandals at the moment. They look expensive and are super versatile if you buy them in a neutral hue. Pair them with literally everything in your closet this season.
