Beautiful sandals

Beautiful sandals are a must have for the summer. They are lighter than shoes, but at the same time they can decorate the image and make their owner spectacular and memorable. Sandals are shoes with a not fully closed foot and ankle. Most often, they are interweaving straps or a large number of cuts on a single canvas. They can be called simple shoes, because their appearance is maximally lightened, so a lot of things in their perception depend on the type of sole.

Heeled sandals are presented in a huge variety of options, ranging from classic thin stiletto heels to large and thick cylinder-shaped ones. In addition to the usual forms of heels, there are unusual ornate, beveled and curly heels, since fancy and unconventionality is the trend of the season. The appearance of shoes is affected not only by the shape, but also by the material and jewelry. Since the heel, especially massive, is very noticeable, it is in every possible way decorated with rhinestones, stones, metal details, embroideries. In addition to standard materials, materials are used that are transparent or stylized as horns or tusks of an animal.

The hairpin fascinates with its accuracy, and sometimes striking in height. And although a lot of models are made with high heels, not everyone can walk in such shoes. Therefore, designers do not forget about the average and low height of the hairpin, making such sandals no less feminine and sophisticated. Most often, stiletto sandals are inclined by design to evening models, and therefore they are richly inlaid with stones, and also made in shiny silver and golden colors.

A wide heel firmly settled on a fashionable pedestal. Unlike hairpins, it is most often made precisely high, but in combination with a platform.Therefore, such shoes remain comfortable even for daily wear. Massive heels are stylishly combined with closed toes or, conversely, thin straps. In addition, a wide heel allows you to embody a new trend - a tractor (corrugated) sole. The relief visually makes the sandals coarse, and in order to smooth out such an effect, the upper part is created feminine, elegant and mostly light.

Flat sandals are of several types: on a high platform (wedge heel) or low platform (in this case they are sandals).

A platform or wedge heel is more comfortable than a heel, therefore, for such a long day on your feet, just such shoes are preferable. For many, the platform seems too rough, because it really can visually make the image heavier, especially if it is shod on thin legs. Wedge heels are a much more elegant option, while retaining the advantage of a high flat sole - comfort and extra centimeters for growth. Since such a sole represents a single whole, without dividing into a heel, the designers fully use the sole for original decorative solutions - embroidery, appliqués, drawings.

Tall girls and those who do not want to load their legs, and at all prefer sandals - sandals with low soles. Occasionally a tiny square heel is found on them. On sandals, there is almost always a large number of intertwined straps or ties that can reach the middle of the lower leg in height.

Stylish sandals can be chosen, relying on the main trends in fashion for the approaching summer season. Knowing the trends, it is impossible to make a mistake with the choice. Ankle-high sandals will be abundantly decorated with a multiple combination of straps, fasteners, ties, chains. Such shoes most often have a heel, since with a flat sole this design decision can look tasteless and too rude.

The heel remains an invariable attribute of summer shoes. Stiletto sandals acquire a more classic look, although some flirty models are decorated with bows, ruffles and stones. Stable thick heel models balance the balanced upper part of the ankle straps with a wide jumper on the foot. As for thick heels and a platform, then a tractor attribute of varying depth and visibility of the relief is a fashionable attribute.

Among the sandals, the “gladiatorial" models are becoming the clear leader - tall, with abundant weaving of straps. More feminine models are decorated with bouquets of leather flowers or beads strung on laces and straps.

Fashionable colors are bright, saturated shades of yellow, red, green, blue, lilac, raspberry, orange. They are often combined with each other, performing the sole and upper in different colors.

Brilliant metallic color is indispensable for evening and special occasions, and classic white and black for both walks and work.

Despite excessive openness, sandals are still covered with all kinds of juicy prints, because they are so cool for summer themes. In addition to classic animalistic, ethnic and color patterns, artistry is also in fashion. Stylized drawings by artists combine fantastic and classic motifs.

As in any other shoe, the use of leather remains unchanged: natural, suede, artificial, matte or patent, smooth or embossed with reptiles. Heel and platforms are made of rubber, cork, wood, polyurethane, transparent plastic. The top of the sandals can be not only leather, but also fabric - jeans, satin, velvet, linen, cotton, mesh. For summer shoes, it is better to purchase shoes made from natural materials, as they provide more ventilation for the feet, prevent overheating and do not cause skin irritation.

Many sandals have a bright and attractive decor. Among the classic elements are sequins, rhinestones, stones, pearls, straps, chains, bows, flowers, appliques. But besides them, they use non-standard, especially for the summer, options, for example: fur. Inserts from other materials, velvet or lace, are quite common on evening sandals.

Taste is a subjective matter. The most beautiful sandals in the world can be safely called those that produce well-known brands. A brand is a quality mark, and the most famous of them are the founders of trends, they shape taste and trends, because they achieved heights exclusively for their merits. The most beautiful sandals are not necessarily complemented by many details, jewelry and have an unusual shape of a heel or toe. Such they are made by perfectly matched harmony in absolutely every component, starting from the material, ending with the color of the sole.

In the coming season, femininity and elegance will be the motto of companies such as Miu Miu, Chloé and Jimmy Choo. Even Jimmy Choo preferred saturation to the strict classics of black, white and beige. This brand achieves brightness and shocking with rich decorative elements for everyday rather than evening shoes. But Chloé and Miu Miu adhere to sophisticated austerity, nude colors and laconic elements. In general, all three brands prefer high thin heels and natural materials, just like Haider Ackermann.

Brian Atwood sandals, by contrast, are far from classics in the use of colors. The brand’s shoes are rightfully considered to be seductive, so sandals should attract attention with raspberry, red, turquoise shades. Brightness and showiness adhere to Charlotte Olympia. Gianmarco Lorenzi and Sergio Rossi are less likely to use colors, but luxuriously adorn sandals with stones and crystals, literally making shoes shine.

Christian Louboutin shoes combine classic brand design with closed heel and ankle strap and trendy colors - emerald, silver.

Marc Jacobs stands out from the general trend of high heels, as their collection has sandals with very low heels and a platform. But in terms of shades, the brand is in no way inferior to others, using silver and neon colors.

Sometimes beauty is combined with extravagance and the concept of comfort is completely forgotten. Such sandals look spectacular on the catwalk and on the pages of magazines, but it is not possible to go into them. You should be aware of some rules, observing which you can wear ultra-stylish shoes, but do not harm your health.

Although sandals are mostly open, you should still be careful that no part is uncomfortable, especially if there is a closed toe. Not a single part of the leg should hang down, and the internal elements of the shoe (seams, joints) must be neat, not bulge and not rub. The same goes for decorative elements, such as straps and chains.

An excessively high heel of ten centimeters is not suitable for work and cases when it is necessary to observe a business dress code. To do this, it is better to choose an average height of up to eight centimeters. But the flat sole is suitable only for everyday and evening looks, but not business ones.

When buying sandals, you should consider the features of the figure and structure of the legs. Wide shins and ankles can be easily hidden behind a large number of ties, but it is worth noting thin laces, but ribbons. But if the foot is wide, then it is best to choose shoes with closed sides and cutouts only on the heel and toe. The shorter the legs, the lower the upper part of the shoe should be, but the heel or platform, on the contrary, can compensate for short stature.Plump girls should choose a stable thick sole, and if the legs are thin, then the heel should be narrow.
