The Resort Shoes You Can Wear Now (And Later)

by Jennifer Ash

Resort 2014 is here, which has left us lusting (hard) over a sea of sandals and getaway-ready soles. We’ve rounded up 8 covet-worthy heels and flats that are perfect for your warm weather rendezvous now and springtime when it arrives.

The Resort-Ready Soles We Love

The Satin Flatform

Marni, $1230

These jewel-encrusted flatforms are a seriously statement-making buy. Ideal for both daytime, nighttime wear and the obvious time off from your high heels, we foresee these luxe slip-ons best teamed with a cozy knit and boyfriend jeans.

The Hybrid Pair

Alexander Wang, $495

The shootie-style silhouette on Alexander Wang's strappy showstoppers allows for an on-trend look, not to mention luxe black leather matches with virtually any outfit. Be it a daring trend, we're totally game to break out these lace-up heels during our next GNO. Thoughts?

The Bold d'Orsay

Jenni Kayne, $495

Equal parts glamorous and comfortable, these bold soles are a staple you can wear now with leather.

The Casually-Cool Espadrille

Alexander McQueen, $550

There's nothing we love more than making a swoon-worthy impact when we're out on the town. Whether you're rocking a flowy dress or denim, these espadrille sandals from Alexander McQueen are a must-have for dressing down your look in a seriously chic fashion.

The Classic Staple

Rachel Zoe, $325

Sleek and sexy, we're obviously pining for these timeless snakeskin sandals. The glamorous addition of silver hardware dresses them up, while their neutral nature allow them to be worn both day and night. Our styling recommendations? A crisp blouse and tailored trousers when it's cold out.

The Statement-Makers

Michael Kors, $425

Sky-high and color-blocked to perfection, Michael Kors nails it when it comes to curating the perfect pair of ankle-strap sandals this season. This classic silhouette can be worn anytime, anywhere, so don't let their punchy-pink pop of color fool you. A chunky heel equals more support and serious comfort. I mean, we're sold.

The Vacay Sandal

Maiyet, $650

Heading to sandy beaches and warm waters this winter? These boho-chic sandals are the perfect buy. Super comfortable and literally made for vacation, we're dreaming of pairing these fierce flats with flowy kaftans and cool coverups.

The Printed Flat

Jason Wu, $695

Covered in an abstract tropical print and fashion in a pointed silhouette, these way-fun flats are truly a must-have. Featured in a color that will match anything, you'll get plenty of wear (and comfort) when your OTK boots aren't cutting it.
