Beautiful sandals are a necessary purchase for the summer. They are lighter than shoes, but at the same time they are able to decorate an image and make its owner spectacular and memorable. Sandals are shoes with an incompletely closed foot and ankle. Most often they are an interlacing of straps or a large number of cuts on a single canvas. They can be called simple shoes, because their appearance is as light as possible, so much in their perception depends on the type of sole.

Heel

The heel on sandals is presented in a huge variety of options, ranging from the classic thin studs to large and thick in the shape of a cylinder. In addition to the usual forms of the heel, there are unusual ornate, beveled and curly heels, as fantasy and non-standard is the trend of the season. The appearance of shoes is influenced not only by the shape, but also by the material and decorations. Since the heel, especially massive, is very noticeable, it is decorated in every possible way with rhinestones, stones, metal parts, embroideries. In addition to standard materials, transparent or stylized as horns or tusks of animal are used.

The stud fascinates with its accuracy, and sometimes strikes with its height. And although a lot of models are made with high heels, not everyone will be able to walk in such shoes. Therefore, designers do not forget about the average and low height of the studs, making such sandals no less feminine and sophisticated. Most often, stiletto sandals are designed by design for evening models, and therefore richly inlaid with stones, as well as made in shiny silver and golden colors.

A wide heel firmly settled on a fashionable pedestal. Unlike studs, it is most often made precisely high, but in combination with the platform. Therefore, such shoes remain comfortable even for everyday wear. Massive heels are stylishly combined with closed toes or, conversely, thin straps. In addition, a wide heel allows you to embody a new trend - the tractor (corrugated) sole. The relief visually makes the sandals coarse, and in order to smooth out such an effect, the upper part is created feminine, elegant and mostly light.

Flat sole

Sandals on a flat sole are of several types: on a high platform (wedge) or a low platform (in which case they are sandals).

A platform or a wedge is more comfortable than a heel, so for such a long day, it is preferable to wear such footwear. To many, the platform seems too rough, because it can actually visually weight the image, especially if it is shod with thin legs. Wedge is much more elegant option, while maintaining the advantage of a high flat sole - the convenience and additional centimeters to growth. Since this sole represents the whole, without division into heels, the designers take full advantage of the sole for original decorative solutions - embroidery, appliqués, drawings.

Tall girls and those who do not want to load their legs, and they prefer sandals - sandals with low soles. Occasionally on them there is absolutely tiny square heel. Sandals almost always have a large number of interwoven straps or straps, which can be as high as mid-calf.

Fashion trends

Stylish sandals can be chosen, relying on the main trends in fashion for the upcoming summer season. Knowing the trends, it is impossible to make a mistake with the choice.Sandals high to the ankle will be abundantly decorated with a multiple combination of straps, clasps, strings, chains. Such shoes often have a heel, as with a flat sole, this design solution can look tasteless and too rough.

Heel remains the same attribute of summer shoes. Stiletto sandals have a more classic look, although some flirty models are decorated with bows, ruffles and stones. Models with a steady thick heel balance a balanced upper part of the straps at the ankle and a wide jumper on the foot. As for thick heels and platform, then a fashionable attribute is the tractor outsole of various depths and visibility of the relief.

Among sandals, “gladiatorial” models are becoming a clear leader - tall, with abundant interlacing of straps. More feminine models are decorated with bouquets of leather flowers or beads strung on laces and straps.

Fashionable colors are bright, rich shades of yellow, red, green, blue, lilac, crimson, orange. Not rarely they are combined with each other, performing the sole and the top in different colors.

The shiny metallic color is indispensable for evening and special occasions, and the classic white and black for both walking and work.

Despite the excessive openness, sandals still cover with all sorts of juicy prints, because they are so cool fit summer theme. In addition to the classic animalistic, ethnic and color drawings in fashion artistry. Stylized drawings of artists combine fantastic and classic motifs.

Materials and decor

As in any other footwear, the use of leather remains unchanged: natural, suede, artificial, matte or varnished, smooth or embossed with reptiles. Heel and platform are made of rubber, cork, wood, polyurethane, transparent plastic. The top of the sandals can be not only leather, but also fabric - jeans, satin, velvet, linen, cotton, mesh. For summer shoes, it is better to buy shoes made from natural materials, since they provide more ventilation for the feet, do not allow overheating, and do not cause skin irritation.

Many sandals have bright and attractive decor. Among the classic elements of sequins, rhinestones, stones, pearls, straps, chains, bows, flowers, appliques. But besides them use non-standard, especially for the summer, options, for example: fur. Inserts of other materials, velvet or lace, are quite often found on evening sandals.

Brands

Taste is subjective. The most beautiful sandals in the world you can safely call those that produce well-known brands. A brand is a quality mark, and the most famous of them are the founders of trends, they form the taste and trends, because they have achieved heights solely for their services. The most beautiful sandals are not necessarily complemented by many details, decorations and have an unusual shape of a heel or toe. As such, they are made by ideally selected harmony in absolutely every component, starting from the material, ending with the color of the sole.

In the upcoming season, the motto of such companies as Miu Miu, Chloé and Jimmy Choo will be femininity and elegance. Even Jimmy Choo preferred saturation to the strict classics of black, white and beige shades. Brightness and shocking this brand achieves rich decorative elements for everyday, not evening shoes. But Chloé and Miu Miu adhere to subtle rigor, nude colors and concise elements. In general, all three brands prefer high thin heels and natural materials, exactly like Haider Ackermann.

Sandals from Brian Atwood, on the contrary, are far from the classics in the use of colors. Footwear brand is considered to be seductive, so sandals should attract the attention of crimson, red, turquoise hues. Brightness and spectacularity stick to Charlotte Olympia.Gianmarco Lorenzi and Sergio Rossi rarely use colors, but luxuriously decorate sandals with stones and crystals, literally making shoes shine.

Christian Louboutin shoes combine classic for the brand design of the closed heel and ankle strap and trendy colors - emerald, silver.

Marc Jacobs stands out from the general trend of high studs, as there are sandals on very low heels and a platform in their collection. But in terms of shades, the brand is not inferior to others, using silver and neon colors.

Tips for choosing

Sometimes beauty is combined with extravagance and the concept of comfort is completely forgotten. Such sandals look spectacular on the catwalk and in the pages of magazines, but it is not possible to walk in them. You should be aware of some rules, observing that you can wear ultra-stylish shoes, but it does not harm health.

Shoes should be bought after dinner, when the legs had time to get tired and swell a little from the load of the day. This will allow to choose the required size more objectively.

Although sandals are mostly open, you should still be careful to ensure that not a single item causes any discomfort, especially if there is a closed toe. No part of the foot should not hang down, and the internal elements of the shoe (seams, seams) must be neat, not sticking or rubbing. The same applies to decorative elements, for example straps and chains.

Excessively high heels from ten centimeters will not be suitable for work and cases when it is necessary to comply with a business dress code. For this, it is better to select an average height of up to eight centimeters. But the flat sole is suitable only for everyday and evening images, but not business.

When buying sandals should take into account the features of the shape and structure of the legs. Wide legs and ankles can be easily hidden behind a large number of ties, but it’s better to choose ribbons than thin laces. But if the foot is wide, it is best to choose shoes with closed sides and cutouts only with heels and toes. The shorter the legs, the lower should be the upper part of the shoe, but the heel or platform, on the contrary, can compensate for low growth. Plump girls should choose a stable thick sole, and if the legs are thin, then the heel should be narrow.
