Seasonally Appropriate | May 2023
Spring and summer sandals perfect for the season — with a twist!
Seasonally Appropriate | Sandals
It’s about that time to free your toes, but please do it responsibly fashionably. I’m partially kidding. I probably should say something more like do it comfortably—because your interpretation of fashionably might be just that. (Basically what I’m saying is no crocs allowed 🫣)
I didn’t want to just spam you with a bunch of pictures of sandals with links to buy said sandals (but if you do buy—great!) so I thought adding an additional element might be a bit more fun? And dare I say… inspiring?
So I’m pairing each sandal with a complementing polish color to gently remind you that if you’re going to free your toes and share them with us in the world, could you kindly also groom them after their winter hibernation? LYMIT.*
*Love you, mean it.
I love this bright and fun color combo.
OPI I’m Yacht Leaving, HB Beauty Bar ($9)

I don’t think I’d ever wear clothing in these colors but they would be fun to try like this.
Madewell the Mabel Asymmetric-Strap Sandal, Madewell ($88)
Dazzle Dry I'm Beachy, Dazzle Dry ($22)
I’m into this season’s square-toe version of my favorite summer flip-flops.
Havaianas Slim Square Flip Flop, Nordstrom ($34)
OPI Funny Bunny, OPI ($11.49)
Bright pink with a matte green is a color-combo I’m digging right now. Also, these sandals look insanely comfy.
Sorel Viibe Slingback Sandal, Nordstrom ($125)
Olive & June Hot Strawberry, Olive & June ($8.99)
A classic look for the francophile with my go-to signature color, OPI’s Big Apple Red. (These sandals are in my shopping cart right now)

OPI Big Apple Red, Target ($11.49)
Colorful lace-up sandals paired with a sunshine-hued polish feel oh so perfect for summer.
Gap Strappy Lace-Up Sandal, Gap, $44.95
Essie Sunshine Be Mine, Essie.com ($10)
I don’t wear wedges as often as I used to (for fear of twisting my ankle, if we’re being honest) but these are a great go-with-everything color and look.
Old Navy Open-Toe Braided Straw Espadrille Wedge, Old Navy, $38
OPI Skate to the Party, OPI ($11.49)
This sandal style is all over the place and I’m almost certain you can buy it in any color, but I’m partial to this pretty pastel lavender paired with a peachy-pink polish. (You’re welcome for that alliteration-filled sentence.)
Lucca Slide Sandal, Nordstrom ($39.95)
Essie Frilly Lillies, Essie.com ($10)
A bright green pedi paired with a lace-up black sandal is cool-girl summer chic, no?
The Soraya Lace-Up Sandal Sandal, Madewell ($98)
Dazzle Dry Fame Nail Lacquer, Dazzle Dry ($22)
Every summer I buy a pair of these (my preferred color is sunkissed) and a pair of Havaianas that I wear all summer long.
