So run, don’t walk, to get you some.

FLATS

Fabulous flats continued to flex their dainty and delicate credentials this season. From thongs to ankle straps and sandals, designers continue to refine and perfect these stylish gems that make running errands stylish and comfortable.

Hana Thong Sandals by See by Chloe

Hana flat in a wearable, everyday city style. The slip-on calfskin upper is embellished with the large feminine braided O-ring characteristic of the Hana leather goods line. An embossed See by Chloé logo details the side straps anchor the look. Available at Bloomingdale’s.

Butterfly Thong Sandals by Sophia Webster

This Butterfly flat sandal synonymous with Sophia Webster for years has an improved fit this season with a cushioned sole, back post and rubber island on the sole. In a multi pastel color wave, this sandal will match everything and looks even more fabulous on foot. Available at Bloomingdale’s.

Milly Ankle Strap Flat by AGL

A classic shape for a woman on the go, the svelte straps secure the ankle of this polished flat beautifully crafted in patent leather and made in Italy. Available at Nordstrom.

CLOGS

True; on occasion a clog can look very un-polished, but this polarizing style was strut on every runway. Thanks to Salvatore Ferragamo, Dries Van Noten and Isabel Marant clogs are doing their absolutely most to prove that they deserve a moment in the spotlight.

Saja by Salvatore Ferragamo

A beautifully embroidered openwork band lends a light, lacy look to this Italian sandal lifted by a cork-wrapped wedge and statement heel. Available at Bloomingdale’s.

Floral Platform Flip Flop by Dries Van Noten

A mix of floral prints enlivens this '70s-inspired flip-flop topped with tubular padded straps and lofted on a curvilinear platform wrapped in foamy trim. Available at Nordstrom.

Mirst Stud Buckle Clog by Isabel Marant

This easy clog made from smooth leather with a comfy cupsole gets its industrial edge from a ring-buckle strap and matching burnished studs. A standout way to give a feminine look a little bit of edge. Available at Nordstrom.

GLADIATORS

Aren’t you glad to have kept the knee-high, wrap-up gladiator sandals somewhere in the back of your closet? You didn’t? Don’t fear. 2023 marks the return of these “foot” glamazons, though many would argue these lace ups never actually left the scene. Ridiculously sexy and oddly comforting the options range from a flat to a high heel.

Amora Valentine High Heel Sandals by Sophia Webster

Made from premium leather, this pair is designed with a pointed open toe with thin straps crossing over the foot to create a chic and sultry style. Sat on a 100mm stiletto heel, this pair is finished in a vibrant pop of red with a crystal embellished heart adorning the toe. Available at Bloomingdale’s.

Lylah Square Toe Strappy High Heel Sandals by Sam Edelman

A festive, lavender tie-around heel, this shoe embraces two trends in one. With square toe and long straps, Lylah elevates your shoe game to new heights. Available at Bloomindgale’s.

Play Studded Sandal by ASH

And you thought gladiators were only meant for a heel! No space is left unembellished on this gladiator flat sandal adorned by polished sun-catching dome studs on its straps, midsole and heel. Available at Nordstrom.

POINTY

Making a case for pointed toes this season, a myriad of on-point options from Amina Muaddi, Valentino and Alexander Wang are pushing the round and square toe shoes out of the game. Always elegant and elongating, these pointed toe stunners are a great option for just about anything you will be pairing them with.

Camelia Pointed Toe Slingback Pump by Amina Muaddi

The Paris-based designer creates yet another gala-worthy pump with this pointy-toe slingback lifted by a low kitten heel and embellished with a sparkly brooch. Available at Nordstrom.

Tiptoe Ankle Strap Mary Jane Pump by Valentino Garavani

An antiqued Maxi stud adds signature polish at the ankle of Mary-Jane straps of this pointed-toe pump that's crafted in Italy from high-shine patent calfskin. Available at Nordstrom.

Delphine Logo Slingback Pump by Alexander Wang

A dramatically pointed toe balances the sculptural high heel of this logo-embellished satin slingback furnished with a comfortably cushioned footbed. Available at Nordstrom.

HEAVY METAL

From dresses to bags, the current style landscape is all about standing out. So put away your neutrals and shoes that intent to blend it to make room for major statement thanks to glitter, crystals and metal.
