It's Impossible to Not Smile When Looking at These New Zara Sandals

This week, Zara has had a big drop of new arrivals, and there is one thing in particular that made all of our editors smile as soon as we clicked on the homepage: a pair of square-toe mules in cheery Play-Doh colours. The sandals have one thick strap across the toe and a small rectangular heel, and come in colours you'd typically find at an old-fashioned sweet shop: apple green, sugary pink and sky blue. These are the definition of Insta-bait accessories.
The mules would look amazing with just a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt, but if you like your outfits to be a little more high-octane, then these are made for a colour clash. These Haribo hues will go with more than you might think. Joy paired the pink mules with an acid-green pleated skirt from Arket, while Hannah wore the blue pair with a gold satin slip skirt. Colourful heels have been a popular trend with celebrities this summer, thanks to Victoria Beckham, who has been wearing her neon-green and pink stilettos to every public event. Keep scrolling to see the new Zara mules; then shop other amazing colourful options from the high-street giant.
