After taking stock of my closet, specifically my shoes, I’ve realized that I don’t have that many pairs of spring / summer sandals to wear! I wanted to round up a few of the styles that I have my eye on and some that I’ve already purchased! Some of these are trendier shoes, so I don’t want to spend as much because I’m still unsure if I’ll like the style so I love that there are dupes for the higher end designer ones out there to test out first!

These are the shoes of the season and if it feels like everyone is wearing them, probably because it’s true. I have the blue block heel sandals from Target and love them! I haven’t bit the bullet on the Marc Fisher espadrillesyet, but it’s only a matter of time until I use my Nordstrom GC towards that purchase! I’m also really loving mules, but not quite ready to commit to a pricey option, so these Merona ones from Target are a great one to try the trend out. They come in gray too, but online don’t have my size.
Rock Studs ||
Rock Studs ||
Ever since Valentine came out with their rock stud collection, you can find a “save” option practically everywhere. This is a trend that doesn’t really seem to be going anywhere, but it’s also not something that’s “classic” so I’m going to save myself a little money and opt for the non-designer version. If I had to pick a favorite it would most definitely be these espadrille rock stud flatforms from SheIn and only $30! Of course Target nailed it with their look-a-like Valentino option in these gladiator sandals.
Slip on ||
Slip on ||
I’m not completely sold on the slip on shoes with no backs. For one, I’m a little concerned that my toes will be death-gripping the front of the shoe – please tell me you know what I’m talking about! The lack of support on around the back of my heel makes me think they wont be a shoe that I’ll wear for long periods of time, but I’m willing to give the trend a chance. I found two great low cost options from SheIn – the loafer with a bow would be great for a casual Friday at work & the black embroidered ones are an amazing dupe for the $700 pair of shoes from Gucci! And how cheeky are these espadrilles – my black ones are on their last leg and I love the comfort of espadrille flats! They also comein black and under $35!

Do you have your eye on any shoes from spring / summer?
I can't decide about those espadrilles – I am worried they would make my feet look huge and clunky! I have see them everywhere though, so I may have to at least try them on! And those blue heels are so cute. Love the color!
I'm crazy about sandals, especially a good, comfy espadrille! And I'm crazy bout you doll! Happy weekend, hope you get some sunshine!
I have enough sandals for an army, but I really need more summer flats! Loving the options you rounded up!
I need some new summer shoes this year! And I am loving all of these choices!! Happy Friday!!
I love the rockstuds! They're so fun and sassy. And I absolutely adore my Soludos and Marc Fishers, both get worn on a serious regular basis! Happy Friday love!<3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
Love these picks! Normally I am all about the heels and wedges for spring, but this year I cannot get enough slip ons and mules!
I love all your picks! I have the Marc Fisher espadrilles from last year and they are probably one of my favorites. But, after Steve Madden came out with a virtual carbon copy of them, I'm thinking about buying them in every color! The Marc Fisher ones truly are fabulous! Have a great weekend, Biana!

I might be able to get on board with those black mules from Target! They just remind me so much of my Mom, but I guess she has good taste 🙂 Happy Weekend!
I seriously have a shoe problem, especially when it comes to sandals because they are so much more affordable! These are all great picks, especially the cute slides! Have a great weekend Biana!

So many pretty shoes!! I need a few new paid as well. Target is seriously killing it this year with shoes and even some clothes!! Love those block heels and mules. I bought a pair of flat sandals at kohls yesterday, and they had a lot of cute pairs too! Hope you have a fabulous weekend.
LOVE so many of these shoes! Those blinking eye espadrilles have been on my radar for a while! Also just love those pastel blue heels–so gorgeous!! Happy Friday!

I loveee a good pair of slip ons!!! Such a necessity!

I have the blue ones on my list too! Such a great price! I live in my espadrilles all summer and love that fun pair you picked!
These are such great shoes for the spring & summer! I'm still stuck on my trusty Jack Roger sandals but might be branching out to some new fun ones soon!
I've been having my eye on the Marc Fisher espadrilles for some time now, too! They really seem to be comfy and can go with everything, so the price seems validated; I think I may save it for a birthday purchase, not sure, but I do want them! That said, if you have a gift card, girl, get them! They really do seem to be amazing! I also love those studded shoes from Shein, they're so cute and look like they'd go so well with many looks! Thanks for sharing, beauty, and I hope you have a great weekend ahead!

I've been trying to fill gaps in my shoes as well! I agree about slip-ons without backs, bad news! I love the pastel colors 🙂 Have a great weekend girlfriend!

Great picks. I too need some spring shoes. I did pick up a pair of espadrilles and cannot wait to wear them. I have the rock studs and love them. I only got them because I was able to get them on sale. I would never have gotten them if I didn't get a good deal on them. I have them in hot pink! Shocking I know, right? Have a wonderful weekend pretty lady.
Oh cute shoes, how I miss thee! I love those blue block heels! Go splurge, doll! You deserve it! XOXO, R
i am loving this list! i am *this* close to getting the marc fisher platforms. i feel like i'lll wear the heck out of them 🙂 and the slides – i promise your toes won't hate you! i have some slides (one from joie) and i love them. so comfy!

You know I love those blue color block heels 🙂 and I think at least 50% of my shoe collection are wedge heels similar to those espadrilles lol
Not sure about slip on / backless shoes either…I just don't feel like they would look cute on me!
I have my eye on so many slip ons, but I'm with you– if they don't fit right they can be such a nightmare to walk in! So many cute picks in this post!
OH MY GOSH… the shoes with the bows. I used to have some of those in the 90's!!!! I cant believe they're back. I had them in cream AND in black because I loved them so much.
I plan to add those block heels to my closet very soon! I bought the cutest pair of striped espadrilles yesterday, and they are so dang comfy!
love them all!

I have 20938402384 pairs of flip flops, but one pair of nicer flat sandals. LOL. I do have some wedges but I rarely wear them.
The rock studded gladiators are my favorite of the bunch! Stylish and they look comfortable for a really good price from Target. Would you believe I don't own one pair of slip-ons? They look perfect for travel that requires lots of walking. Happy Easter weekend!
do you know how much i love spring shoes!? I want all the wedges!!!
i love those blue heels! xo jillian – cornflake dreams
Those loafers with the bow are calling my name!! They are just darling!
Hope you have a good weekend, girlfriend!

Great picks! I have been trying to get my hands on those Target Valentino dupes!
I feel the same way about slip-ons, I worry about them coming off, and it has happened before. I like those black ones in the "must haves" section. I try to always have at least two pairs of black shoes, since they go with anything.
I'll tell you I got those slide in mules from Target and they are INSANELY comfy! I think you should totally go for them.
I am so excited to finally be able to wear open-toe shoes this summer!! I've actually had a pair of heels I bought on sale this summer that I've been waiting to wear for months on a date night!

Target has been my serious go to for sandals/wedges! I bought about 3 pairs of shoes and I'm pretty sure my husband will divorce me if I buy another pair because they are literally spilling out of everywhere! You picked some great ones!
I am needing all of these! Comfy and Cute!

I had to have the Marc Fisher pair last year…. and never wore them. I'm glad they are still in, hope to finally wear them! Target has had some great options lately.
I love those studded espadrilles! xx, I'm Fixin' To
