How to wear espadrilles?
Over the centuries, espadrilles have evolved into one of the summer’s most popular and fashionable shoe styles. They’ve been seen on the feet of movie stars and royalty. In fact, one of the leading search terms when searching for women’s espadrilles online are three simple but powerful words: Kate Middleton style. And whenever she steps out in a pair of espadrille sandals, the world pays attention. Whether you’re strolling along the boardwalk or attending a beach wedding, here are some chic ways to wear espadrilles:
Go for comfort:
These are the perfect summer-friendly alternative to sneakers. Espadrille flats provide full coverage for your feet, but they’re also breathable and comfortable. Skip regular socks—either go sockless or opt for no-show socks. You can pair your espadrille flats with shorts, cuffed jeans, or even summer dresses for a more laid-back look.
Enjoy the weather:
For more formal warm-weather events, like a wedding or a smart alfresco dinner, espadrille wedges are your go-to. They add height and elongate your legs. Neutral tones like beige, brown, or light pink create a leg-lengthening effect. Open-toe wedges are trendy, while closed-toe styles exude sophistication.
Lovely lace-ups:
These come in both wedge and flat styles. Lace-up flats pair well with swing dresses and hats for a cute, exploratory outfit. Lace-up wedges add glamor to flowy dresses. Decide whether you want to tie the laces around your ankle or wind them up your calf for a more dramatic look.
Laid-back with linen:
