8 ideas on how to style sandals

We've waited long enough to let our toes breathe, and now it's finally time to step out in the most strappy sandals we can find. With our shoe choices sorted, you might be thinking about how to style sandals while keeping up with fashion trends and staying comfortable. While it's tempting to dive into bold prints and bright colors as soon as the sun comes out, we prefer a more understated approach to summer style, especially in the heat. We're all about mixing up classic staples in our sandals outfit ideas—whether it's a tank top and jeans, a breezy dress, or a lightweight linen co-ord.

From floral sundresses to airy trousers, almost every warm-weather piece pairs well with sandals. So, we've put together our favorite eight outfits with sandals to spark inspiration for your summer wardrobe.

Sandals with Midi Dress

Wearing a pair of simple sandals is just the first step; knowing how to style them is key. If you're aiming for a modern outfit, consider a midi dress with sandals. There's a wide range of styles to choose from, whether you prefer nostalgic femininity or a chunkier look. Popular options include bodycon, shirt, cocktail, and knitted dresses.

For a relaxed vibe, try a Ruffled cotton dress from House of Dagmar alongside Hereu's Fisherman sandals. This dress with sandals outfit will elevate your look while keeping it laid-back and stylish.

Sandals with Wide-Leg Pants

Are you dreading the hot summer wave but unsure how to stay cool? Embrace the stylish comfort of wide-leg pants and breathable sandal flats. Let's put together a chic sandals outfit in a neutral palette.

Opt for pastel yellow Linen drawstring trousers paired with a matching Linen strap top from House of Dagmar, and finish the look with a Chunky-sole leather flip flop from Erika Cavallini. Feel the breeze and say goodbye to the heat!

Sandals with Matching Set

There are countless stunning co-ord sets available right now, making it hard to choose just one. Whether it's silk, linen, or knit, these matching ensembles shine when styled right, especially when paired with summer dress sandals.

We adore cute outfits with sandals for travel and vacation, and this one ranks among our favorites. We pair Striped silk shorts with a matching Striped silk top to create a cohesive look, finishing it off with a Chunky-sole leather flip flop. So easy yet so impactful!

Sandals with Shorts

Women's fisherman sandal is trending in the fashion scene and can easily complement various outfits. When it comes to pairing flat sandals with shorts, they simply go hand in hand. Distressed denim shorts teamed with a cropped top are cool enough to earn a special place in your wardrobe.

If you're looking to swap out your feminine style for something bolder and more summer chic, combine High-rise shorts from Agolde with a horizontally striped Cropped tee from House of Dagmar, along with Fisherman sandals from Hereu for a stylish day out.

Sandals with Skirt

The key to wearing the ladies' outfits with sandals is to ensure you feel confident and happy. Skirts can beautifully express a person's individuality, offering a wide range of styles. For example, pair a nude straight-fit skirt with a tank top and subtle black sandals. 

We've styled Lisa Yang's ivory Fine-knit midi skirt alongside the black Contrast stitch top from House of Dagmar and the distinctive Woven slingback sandals from Hereu. This outfit creates a vibe perfect for laid-back days and travel adventures.

Sandals with White Dress

Exploring the world of summer shoes, flat sandals can truly elevate any outfit you choose to wear. Therefore, we suggest another lovely pairing: a white sundress with sandals. Treating yourself to the fresh vibe of a white short or long dress with sandals gives you a pristine look. However, you might wonder what would go well with sandals with dresses combinations. The beauty of it is that there are no strict rules; the possibilities are endless—from sleek minimalist accessories to edgy leather jackets. It all depends on the vibe you want to capture.

For a relaxed coffee date, consider the chic Bohemian Linen tie-waist tunic from 120% Lino paired with the elegant white Cross-strap leather sandals from Erika Cavallini. This combination is sure to leave a lasting impression!

Sandals with Linen Suit

A linen suit—an undeniable summer essential—definitely can and should be styled with sandals. Choose relaxed fit or subtle tailoring, wide-leg or cropped cuts, and wear fisherman sandals without embellishments; they are a statement on their own.

For our look, we styled a chic light beige suit from Erika Cavallini, featuring the Belted linen blazer and Straight linen trousers, complemented by the rich brown Padded fisherman sandals from Hereu.

Sandals with Jeans

Finding the right balance between comfort and style when getting dressed can be challenging, but we should never sacrifice one for the other. A great way to achieve both is by pairing comfortable sandals with jeans. This combination creates a summer sandals outfit that strikes the perfect balance and is sure to attract attention.

Get creative with light blue Straight cropped jeans from Agolde for a Sunday brunch. Pair them with a white Long sleeve linen shirt from 120% Lino, which will keep you cool while staying on-trend. Complete the look with a brown body bag and white Cross-strap leather sandals from Erika Cavallini for the perfect finishing touch.
