Tired of your typical warm-weather shoes? You may want to consider hopping onto the espadrille trend.

Comfortable, breathable, and chic, they’re a great alternative to both sneakers and sandals.

Espadrilles come in a multitude of colors and designs, but they all carry the same summery vibe.

Take a look at how a few bloggers and celebrities styled their espadrille flats:

1. Boho Chic

This look is simple and cute and is perfect for warm weather. Denim layered with pastel is a casual, easy look, and the exaggerated accessories make a bold boho statement.

3. City Cool

This look is urban and casual, but it still features elements of class.

4. Floral Fun

Floral is in fashion every summer, and this year is no exception.

Work this loud pattern with oversized sunglasses and muted or neutral accessories to avoid clashing colors.

This look is sweet and feminine. A neutral color palette and delicate fabrics transform you into a fashion princess, and 1920s accessories are adorable and trendy. Repeat after me: “socks and sandals can be cute!”
