What am I in the spring please?

Ok so I’m 50 this year and fighting against losing sight of who I am.
in the winter I’m skinnies or long skirts and boots (ankle or knee length)
in the summer I’m cropped trousers, long skirts and sandals (flat or wedge)
What am I in the spring? Other than trainers? Weathers looking nice next weekend and boots probably aren’t going to cut it 😂
PLEASE can someone help me with spring footwear that isn’t trainers? I seem to have turned clueless!

I like ballet pumps, I don't follow fashion closely though so might be out of touch!

How about loafers or boat shoes. Seasalt/ joules type canvas trainers can also look smarter than sports trainers while still being comfortable.

Same here- ballet pumps, flat or low heeled, low heeled courts, pumps with Quaker buckles.

Loafers are an option too. I used to think I didn't like them but some one new in the office has really nice loafers.

In the height of summer will wear canvas sneakers (with as little rubber as possible)

Seasalt/ joules type canvas trainers can also look smarter than sports trainers while still being comfortable.

Awaiting response to ^^ about how "dated/ old fashioned/ even my granny wouldn't wear them" !

Thank you all this is really helpful. I agree about the loafers. I’ve seen some lovely ones on people but always used to think I didn’t like them
