Spend Your Spring in Comfort and Style with These Must-Have Shoes
As the weather gets warmer and spring rolls in, it’s always a good idea to switch things up and refresh your lifestyle. It can be something as simple as brightening up the dining table with a new springtime appetizer, such as tulip baguette bites. A previous post guides you through this easy-to-follow recipe that requires a few simple ingredients, including French baguette, cherry tomatoes, basil, chives, and spreadable cheese.
Aside from introducing new additions to your menu, springtime presents the perfect opportunity to update your wardrobe. To start, you can experiment with the latest spring dress trends, ranging from a cherry red palette as a fashion statement to boho chic vibes characterized by flowy fabrics, ruffles, and fringes.
Whatever trend you plan to incorporate into your everyday look, it goes without saying that a spring outfit wouldn’t be complete without footwear. Shoes not only enhance your style but also serve a practical purpose for comfort, so here are footwear options that balance fashion and function and are worth adding to this season’s wardrobe.
Leather sandals
If you’ve become tired of wearing thick, chunky shoes during winter to protect your feet and trudge through the snow, it’s time to let your toes breathe by wearing leather sandals. While sandals have always been a warm-weather staple, you can elevate your style for springtime by looking into different leather finishes, straps, and cutouts.
QVC’s curated shoes section has a wide range of chic sandals to choose from, such as Clarks Footwear’s Laurieann Bell, which features a round toe and an adjustable strap for lightweight and comfortable wear. Meanwhile, White Mountain’s Hardball slide sandals in white have double straps and a cork midsole, making them perfect for casual brunches with friends or a picnic at the park.
Ballet flats
Ballet flats are expected to be the it-shoe of 2025, especially with luxury brands like Alaïa and Gucci releasing their own takes on the classic flats for their spring/summer 2025 collections. Whether you opt for Alaïa’s bejeweled flats or Gucci’s strapped styles, these shoes are a must-have since they’re versatile and can be styled with wide-legged trousers, denim jeans, and slips and dresses.
However, if you’re planning to be out and about this spring, it’s worth considering the ballet flats from luxury label Patou’s collaboration with Japanese sportswear brand Onitsuka Tiger. The flats blend Patou’s distinctive feminine style with the sleek playfulness of Onitsuka Tiger sneakers. Made of Nappa leather and available in a pink and black colorway, these shoes are ideal for springtime walks around the neighborhood.
Kitten heels
Lastly, those looking to add a more feminine touch to their wardrobes can opt for kitten heels, which help you look equally chic and comfortable with the slender, low-mid heel. Like the aforementioned sandals and ballet flats, kitten heels have been around for decades, popularized by the French fashion house Dior.
However, they’ve emerged in modern, reimagined styles in recent years, as seen in celebrities like Ariana Grande and Sydney Sweeney. Grande wore her white kitten heels with a bow detail and lacy tights, while Sweeney looked effortlessly stylish in a casual tee, mini skirt, and open-toed kitten heels from Miu Miu. You may also find affordable options of this side-walk friendly heel on Charles & Keith, with their contemporary designs ranging from thong sandals to slingback Mary Janes.
