Closet Checklist Spotlight: Slipping into Summer Shoes

Let’s continue our Closet Checklist series on…. Summer shoes!

Summer shoes can be tricky. Many women (including myself) aren’t the biggest fans of sandals. Sometimes showing off those little piggies just doesn’t do it. 

Not to overthink it, but the temperature of our feet is crucial. It dictates if we’re warm or hot. Plus, there’s always the delicate balance of navigating between going into freezing air conditioning while not melting in the car when we get back in after shopping for groceries. It’s like a sauna and who wears shoes in a sauna?! And let’s not forget when your feet sweat… and rub… and BOOM! Blisters! OUCH!

So, I’d like to show you three shoe trends that have popped out at me for Summer 2020. 

The Loafer

One of my personal faves because it EASILY matches nearly everything and is appropriate (and comfy) for a WIDE variety of occasions. You can never go wrong with a classic!!

Tory Burch Miller Loafer

Sole Society Hadley Loafer

Franco Sarto Bisma Tassel Loafer

Tod’s New City Mocassin (60% off)

Jeffrey Campbell Viona Loafer




The Flatform

Loving how this gives a little height without having to deal with a heel! I’ll take it!

Franco Sarto Casey Flat

Abound Platform Sneaker

Vince Camuto Hamorra Cutout

Naturalizer Waverly Espadrille




“Shoellery”

Especially if you’re not a jewelry person, this is such a fun way to add some texture and shine to your look. This looks great with a simple, clean dress or a white blouse and jeans (perfect for weddings and festivities!).
