The end of the long Canadian winter is upon us which officially means we can say goodbye to heavy duty boots until December. Accessories are known to always pull together an outfit and the shoes can really be the showstopper if chosen right. Keep reading if you want to know what shoes you should be wearing this spring/summer and how you should be wearing them!

Mary Janes are back!

Last summer, Mary Janes, which look a lot like a ballet flat that has a strap over the foot, made a comeback in trendy fashion. This spring/summer it’s likely that these shoes will come out from hiding in the winter and walking the streets for various occasions. Mary Janes have been seen as a very versatile shoe as many have worn them for various occasions. These occasions can include walking around the city, going out for dinner, going out for lunch, meeting up with friends, and more. If you didn’t have a pair of Mary Janes already, try to get your hands on them to fit into the trend.

Comfort is always in; did someone say Samba!

Sometimes a classic sneaker is just what an outfit calls for. The Adidas Samba style shoe is sure to be a sneaker seen across borders this summer. It’s a great option for long walks or travel due to their comfort and trendy style. All sneakers come in different styles and colors so choosing a neutral base sneaker to pair with many of your outfits is a great way to get your money’s worth and feel confident in your style. If there’s an option     of investing in two pairs of sneakers for the summer, that would be ideal to interchange them with different outfits so that it reduces the chances of getting bored of them quickly.

Summer vibes only

Embracing the warm weather in true form, many will crave the need to wear a shoe that doesn’t include putting on socks. A great option other than flip flops are sandals for a more elevated look. Steve Madden has their classic Daelyn Tan sandals which are the perfect pairing with summer dresses, pants and a top, and so many more. These shoes are extremely dynamic and a great choice for your wardrobe. Slippers are still a practical and fun option in certain circumstances. However, choose wisely with your slipper choice because a good quality slipper could change the vibe of your appearance and wardrobe choices.

Girls night out

The spring summer girl’s night heels have been screaming to come to the front of the closet. Open-toed heels are tucked in faraway land for the winter otherwise frostbite becomes a big concern. Heels are the perfect option to elevate an outfit on a girl’s night out and there are many styles to choose from. Steve Madden has the classic girl’s night open-toed heel in two slightly different styles. The first one is the Dylann Black Heel which matches well with jeans or pants, and the Irene-m Black Heel that has a slightly shorter heel which is the perfect option for comfort while wearing heels or a less dramatic look.

Date night!

Depending on where date night is occurring the spring, summer shoes can certainly vary. A great option that hasn’t been mentioned in this article previously is a classic pair of mules. This type of shoe is the perfect in-between slides and heels. It’s easy to put on, there isn’t the discomfort of stilettos, and still the outfit can still be deemed date-night ready with these shoes.

Shoes can really influence the vibe of your outfit so make sure to research and think carefully before putting on a pair of shoes with your outfit. Have fun with your shoe style this summer and try not to hold yourself back. We only have a few more months before the cold shoes come out, so enjoy the fun and fashion expression of choosing the perfect shoe pairing for your outfits.
