These Unexpected Under-$50 Sandals Are Winning the Great Summer Flip-Flop Debate
Morgan Stewart just made a case for these bold sandals. Scroll down to see and shop her look.

There’s a new It sandal making waves this summer—and no, it's not The Row’s Dune flats, A.Emery's Kinto flip-flops, or Toteme's croc-effect sandals. While all of those are undeniably stylish, they’re yesterday’s news and come with a high price tag. The fresh favorite we're eyeing is bold, playful, fashion-muse approved—and under $50: the Havaianas Brazil Logo flip-flops.
Featuring Havaianas' iconic rubber silhouette, a Brazil flag detail on the thong strap, a green stripe along the sole, and a vibrant golden-yellow hue, these flip-flops are shaping up to be the must-have of summer 2025. Need a little convincing? Style icon Morgan Stewart just gave them her stamp of approval. While sharing photos from her European getaway this week, she posted a snap in a Chloé silk minidress—styled unexpectedly (and brilliantly) with these very flip-flops.

What stood out wasn't just the fact that Stewart, known for her love of luxury fashion, wore a $26 sandal—it was how she wore them. Ditching the obvious poolside look, she embraced the “wrong shoe theory” and paired them with an elegant dress, making the outfit feel intentional, unique, and effortlessly chic.
Given her trendsetting power, it's no surprise the sandals sold out shortly after she featured them on her IG story. Luckily, they’re finally back in stock—for now. So before they disappear again, keep scrolling to snag the flip-flops and re-create her European-chic ensemble.
