Summer Shoes to Shop If You Have Classic Style

Let me guess—you have an affinity for neutral colors, and your motto when it comes to shopping is buying fewer, better things. I hear you. Shopping for summer can be somewhat tricky for women with classic style. I mean, just take one look at the new arrivals section of your favorite retailers to see why. They're inundated with bright colors, prints, and hyper-trendy designs. Which is why we put together the classic girl's guide to summer dressing, so you can shop every essential for the season ahead.

Next up: classic summer shoes. The following styles are tried-and-true staples that we suggest you commit to memory because you'll be wearing them for years to come. From the ankle-tie espadrilles that will make you feel so French to the summer buy you'll actually wear year-round, shop our classic shoe edit.
