7 Summer Shoe Trends From Last Year I'm Still Wearing This Year
I'm a fashion editor who is acutely aware of how quickly the trend cycle in fashion moves. And with social media, it's expected that trends come and go more quickly than ever. The point is that trends that have longevity can be hard to find but they certainly exist. I tend to spend more on shoes than I do other fashion items, so I'm particularly happy when shoe trends are more than just a flash in the pan.
In all honestly, I don't know that any new summer shoe trends will get as big as some of summer 2019's did. With vacations and basically every other summer activity up in the air this year, and all the time we're spending indoors, shoes aren't exactly as high up on the list as they were last year. But we still need 'em. Based on my Instagram and market research, there are seven existing summer shoe trends, in particular, that are back for a sequel this summer.
Whether you already own them or want to add to your collection, useful information lies ahead. Scroll to shop the trends and see how people are wearing them this year.
This controversial trend has undoubtedly hit the mainstream. Even Prada released a pair of fancy flip-flops (which I want) for summer. If you want to avoid the beachy look, avoid rubber ones and wear them with polished pieces.Perhaps the biggest shoe trend to come out of the past year, square toes are here to stay. Even though the trend dates back to they '90s, they easily give any summer shoe a more modern feel.Retro sneakers have eclipsed all other sneakers in popularity, which is great news because they're very easy to wear. Whether you love bright colors or plain white sneakers, there are plenty of options to be had.Barely there sandals may not offer much in the way of support, but they're as chic as ever. The trend started with strappy heels, but now, there are lots of flat sandals on the market if you want a more casual pair.Platforms can be polarizing, but they're not going anywhere for the time being. If ultra-high platforms aren't your thing, try mid-height platforms.Shoes with chains, anklets, and other jewelry-like accents is a micro-trend that continues to bubble. We can thank Bottega Veneta for this.Sporty sandals by every brand from Teva to Chanel were wholeheartedly embraced last summer, so it's not surprising that they're back again. I, for one, love any shoe trend that's both comfortable and summer-friendly.
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
