I like to consider myself a shopping expert because I spend my days curating fashion roundups and hunting down the best of the best products. So, my friends and family often come to me when they have a shopping questions, because they know I'll instantly have handful of recommendations. Recently, someone asked me what the best work shoes for Summer would be? For a second I stopped and thought, that's actually a tough one. You'll want something light, airy, comfortable, functional, and also stylish enough to mix and match with everything else in your closet. So, I went on a mission to find out what pairs tick all these boxes.
I turned to all my favourites retailers and curated a list of my favourite finds for hot days, long commutes, and beyond. From comfy flats to classic slingbacks, no doubt you'll fall in love with at least one (or five!) pairs ahead. The best part — they're all so versatile you can wear them even after you leave the office. Keep scrolling to shop and find the ones you're going to wear all season.
