The Chicest Outfits with Sandals for Summer and Beyond, According to a Fashion Editor

Does anyone else think that 2025 is flying by? It’s somehow mid-June already, which means warmer days are on the horizon (especially this week with a heatwave hitting London) and with them the age-old dilemma of what to wear.

I’ve already done the seasonal switchover and once again, my wardrobe is filled with floaty dresses, mini skirts, and breezy linens. But when it comes to summer dressing, there’s one other essential I always come back to: chic sandals. Admittedly, I own more pairs than I probably need, but each one earns its place. They’re just such a versatile option that works with practically every outfit and once the temperature rises, I rarely wear anything else. Trainers can have their moment again come autumn!
