Despite their prevalence, Iâve always found black sandals a little jarring when worn with light summer dresses. Against the fresh whites, pale peaches and soft hues that dominate our summer wardrobes, they can feel a little stark, and Iâve never quite understood why theyâve become the go-to pairing for the season. Instead, Iâve always found their softer brown counterparts to be a far more natural match. Case in point: Victoria Beckham, who this week stepped out on holiday styling a boho-inspired maxi dress with the chicest sandal colour trend.
Choosing a long-line style that cascaded down to her ankles, Victoriaâs dress was rendered in a pretty pale beige, peppered with floral embellishments that added a feminine, bohemian feel. With its slightly sheer finish, there was a natural lightness to the dress that, had she paired it with black sandals, could have felt a little mismatched. Instead, her warm brown sandals complemented the softer tones beautifully, grounding the look without making it feel too matchy-matchy.
Before summer draws to a close, Iâll be giving my summer dresses one more whirl with this chic sandal colour trend. If youâre thinking the same, read on to shop my edit of the best brown sandals below.
