Footwear for summer/autumn that is not sandals

16 replies

Hello fashionistas and style gurus. I’m desperately in need of ideas for closed toe footwear for the summer and autumn. What are the stylish wearing this year? The footwear will be worn with jeans or shorts. I’m feeling too old for converse and I don’t like trainers unless I’m actually training! Grateful for any ideas.

Thank you- I thought ballet flats were out of vogue? Are they back in again?

I forgot to mention I am 5’2” and slim frame so nothing wide or clumpy or I look like I’m wearing boats on my feet!

Pointed flats - I have several pairs, a few are sling-back so perfect for summer - and Loafers

I have flats & loafers in a variety of colours - tan, cream, white, gold, leopard print etc. Also, some of the comfiest ones were cheapy pairs from Primark and New Look!

If you go to a trendy shop you will find trendy fashionable shoes.

I generally live in flip flops but I have these for driving and longer walks. They go with everything.

The shoe shops such as Office and Schuh are full of Birkenstock clogs.

I love my Toms in the summer. I also have a pair of Swedish wooden clog sandals which look great with jeans or a dress: www.swedishhasbeens.com/sandals/strap-sandals/new-covered-nature-ss23
