The most popular summer shoes are open options, because they are not hot. Not so long ago, the bulk fashion returned to the platform, and every year fashion houses try to prove that the higher the shoe, the more stylish the image is. Fortunately, additional centimeters do not prevent such a sole from being stable and comfortable. The platform has not bypassed sandals, and their harmonious union has created incredibly trendy and beautiful shoes for the warm season.

The trend is bright and stylish models, a lot of decorative elements, as well as femininity. Some brands create such shoes that it looks like a small piece, is pleasing to the eye and amazes the imagination, and is not an ordinary item that helps keep your feet safe.
Actual remain not only solid platforms, but with a dedicated heel. However, in both cases, the emphasis from the top of the sandals was transferred to the bottom. The platform is made out in all possible ways, for example, embroidery, applications, chains, rivets. And the upper part, to balance such a bright sole, is made, on the contrary, as concise as possible.
However, accuracy, tenderness and femininity to taste is not for everyone. Although frankly masculine style in sandals is not in a trend, there are still a lot of models in a rather rough version. They achieve this with a massive platform, not infrequently with relief, wide buckles, accessories.
Among the specific styles is ethno. Such sandals are bright and not always ordinary, as in their design there is colored leather, fancy decor, and also textiles.
We should also consider such a question as the degree of openness in sandals, because several standards are in fashion at once. The top of the maximum open shoe consists only of thin straps and straps, so that you can see most of the legs. The strap may be a little more, they can intertwine with each other and create a more stable fixation. Slightly open models can only see the thumb, as there is a small slot on the toe. And, finally, completely closed on the toe of the model.
As for fashionable combinations, then it is worth talking about short clothes, for example, skirts, shorts, dresses. Plus the solid platform is that with it the length of the mini looks not vulgar, but stylish and youthful.
For those who do not want to open the view of the legs, the cardinal opposite is suitable - maxi skirts and dresses. For office workers and all those who need to comply with the dress code, you should look at the narrowed pants.
Platform options
The platform can be either solid, flat, or separate, that is, divided into two parts and with the presence of a heel. Moreover, the rise does not depend on the type of sole, and can be quite noticeable, of medium height or completely flat.
Due to the height of the platform, even models in heels can be with a slight rise, so that this shoe will be able to pass almost all day.
The heel itself can be thick, the shape of the "barrel", square to look harmoniously with a massive platform, and a thin stud.
Regardless of the type of sole, platform or heel, high sandals in trend. They have a lot of advantages, because they help to appear higher, make the silhouette more curvaceous, leggy. In addition, the platform allows the shoe to be comfortable.
The height of the platform in front of the sock starts from four centimeters, and in the area of the heel comes to all fifteen.Such sandals, undoubtedly, will help a short girl to literally rise above all.
But height is not suitable for everyone, and not everyone likes it. Therefore, among the sandals many models on a low platform. It may be flat, that is, of the same height at all sites, or a certain rise closer to the heel is possible. Low sandals look less impressive than high, but they are much more comfortable and versatile, because they are suitable for everyday wear and work.
Despite the fact that there are several materials that make a platform for sandals, only a few of them give a special characteristic look. The cork sole is very light, so that the shoes from it are, one can say, weightless, and it looks like it cannot be confused with anything. The rubber platform is perhaps the most common, besides it looks perfect in a trend tractor, i.e. corrugated version.
Material
For the upper part they use leather (natural and artificial), suede, textiles, rubber, silicone, denim, and sometimes completely plastic. Among natural materials flax, cotton and silk are popular.
Leather material is often embossed, creating a simulation of snake skin, crocodile.
Platform sandals are made of rubber, wood, cork, plastic, polyurethane, nubuck. Some materials are more familiar, and others seem unusual. Tree for lovers of natural materials and colors, because the platform of it beige and brown.
Transparent plastic is not universal in terms of creating images, but it looks very impressive. Cork, straw and rattan allow shoes to be very light, which is appreciated by many young ladies who have to spend all day on their feet.
Color and print
In sandals on the platform very often the main active element is the sole, and it is to her that all the color or decorative attention is paid. The top of the shoe in this case is mostly monophonic and simplified, so that tasteless fussiness is not created. Two pieces of shoes do either in contrasting shades, or in one single.
Classic colors are popular - completely black or white, because on the one hand they are the most businesslike, but on the other - elegant and versatile. Sandals of these colors are easy to combine with a work suit or evening cocktail attire.
Another classic color is considered to be brown and beige, especially with a wooden or cork platform.
As for bright colors, they are presented in sandals in a wide palette, because summer is the time for experimentation and juiciness. Orange, red, yellow, blue, pink, blue, green, turquoise colors and their shades are in fashion. Among the combinations - orange or red top with a black platform or white top - with a pink one.
Prints on the shoe phenomenon is quite frequent. Since sandals are summer shoes, the most common pattern is associated with floral and floral motifs. In the trend and animalistic patterns that mimic the colors of the skins of zebras, leopards, tigers. The same applies to ethnic stories, which are in fashion this season.
How to choose?
Footwear is involved in the direct preparation of the image and is not separable from the complete set of clothes, so sandals should be purchased depending on the purpose. If you need shoes for every day, then choose a low or medium platform, from about five to eight centimeters, with a comfortable shoe and not a big lift.
Semi-closed and closed models are preferable, as they are not out of the dress code and, in the case of frequent foot movements, will protect your feet from dirt.
While everyday sandals should be concise, preferably monochromatic or neutral colors, the front doors can be anything bright and decorated. In addition, the output shoes can be as high as their owner is comfortable.
In general, speaking of such a parameter as height, it should be noted that it is strictly individual. The main thing is that the girl confidently kept in the shoes, and that the height of the platform does not cause discomfort, since it will be immediately noticeable by gait. It is also important to choose the right size so that the purchase fits well. Heel and fingers should remain in place and not hang down.
Do not forget about the influence of the figure on the choice of shoes. High platform and heel will suit small girls and girls of medium height, as they will help to visually look taller, lengthen legs or focus on them.
It should be remembered about the heel and the platform itself as a whole, since thin girls will not fit a massive sole, and the girl in shape, on the contrary, has a thin hairpin.
What to wear?
Since sandals are summer shoes, the most actual clothing, instead of the usual jeans, will be shorts. Any length, height and texture, they will always be relevant in hot weather. Denim models allow you to create a casual and bold image with the participation of bright tops, T-shirts with funny prints, decorated with tunics. Loose natural fabric shorts look great with lightweight chiffon shirts.
However, according to the weather, jeans and leggings can also come up, but in this case, you should choose narrowed, "boyfriends" or slightly cropped classic models so that you can see the ankle, especially if there is a shoe strap on it.
Light bright or plain pants - a great option for both everyday and business images. Do not forget about the overalls, as with them you can create a gentle feminine or cool perky bows.
Sandals allow you to wear a wide variety of skirts. It can be classic mini, air maxi, lush short models. Even a pencil skirt will do, although with it it’s not a solid platform that looks better, but a heel.
You can also choose a dress for every taste: a small black, fitted silk or lace lush, it all depends on the girl's taste. Massive backpacks and bags are great for platform sandals because they balance the overall look and each other. With shoes with heels you can wear crossbody bags or clutches, especially if the set is made up of a dress or a skirt.
The combination of “massiveness” also applies to jewelry, so if you have sandals on your feet, you can put on large bracelets on your hands or hang a large pendant around your neck.
