I can finally begin to put my boots away and pull out all my favorite spring shoe styles! These are styles that will take me all the way through summer and into fall. Most of the spring shoes I have in my closet are all neutral tones so they easily go with a variety of looks. While I do have some black sandals that I wear during the warmer months, most of the shoes I reach for are more white, cream and varying shades of brown. I also LOVE clear shoes for the warmer months. I have been wearing clear shoes for years and always recommend them because they can look great with literally any outfit. There is no competing color on the shoe so they automatically work with the look. And they also make my legs look so much longer!
Here’s a roundup of shoes I will be wearing this spring/summer 2026 as well as some styles I’m loving right now.
10 Best Shoes For Spring
Sneakers
Veja White Sneakers (similar)
Obviously there are a ton of white sneaker options out there, but I have always liked the sleek look of Vejas. These are the sneakers I wear when I want something low profile, subtle and slightly dressier. This exact style of Veja sneakers are discontinued but there are a TON of similar options from them. When you are looking for a simple white sneaker style to wear in the spring and summer, choose something that has very little detail and stops well below the ankle. I don’t recommend any high tops or sneakers with a higher profile as they will look too chunky on the leg.

Pointy Toe Mules
I included these in my spring shoe edit but honestly, I wear these suede mules all four seasons of the year. They come in a ton of colors but I love this rich brown because they look great with almost any outfit. The subtle kitten heel makes them so comfortable but since they are a mule, they are perfect for wearing during the warmer months especially if you don’t want an open toe style. These are the must have shoe for work and can look great with trousers/jeans or dresses/skirts.
Mary Jane Flats
I am really into the mesh and woven shoe trend at the moment and think they are a fun way to add texture into an outfit. The overall fit and look of them are that of a classic mary jane flat but the woven texture gives them a more unique look.
Another pair of woven mary jane flats that add the perfect pop of color to an outfit. They do come in neutral shades as well but the comfort factor is what really sets these flats apart. They are some of the most comfortable flats I own with no break-in time needed.
Neutral Sandals
Sandals are a must for spring and moving into summer and these Jeffrey Campbell sandals have been a staple in my closet for nearly 4 years. They are super flattering on the foot and can be dressed up or down. They come in a variety of colors but this light tan is the most versatile in my opinion. Normally I am someone who prefers a pointy toe over a round or square toe, but these sandals are one of the few exceptions in my closet. There is a strap that wraps around the ankle but because the strap sits lower on the ankle, it doesn’t cut off the leg and actually gives a more lengthening effect.
If there is one shoe that will be the MOST versatile in your closet, it is a clear sandal. I specifically love the Schutz ones and have both a low block heel style and a high stiletto heel style. I think when clear shoes first starting becoming popular, people were unsure exactly how it would look when you couldn’t see any top portion of the shoe. Would the foot look like it was floating? Can clear shoes be chic? There are so many amazing styles available now that put all these concerns to rest. I absolutely love clear shoes and recommend them every single spring and summer.
These were a shoe that I was finally able to snag because they always sell out so quickly and their versatility is unmatched. They come in a bunch of colors and are perfect to wear with all spring and summer looks. Because they are such a simple style, they can easily be dressed up or down.
Neutral Heels
A simple neutral pointy toe heel will always be in style and always be a good choice to wear throughout spring and into summer. I love the very pale beige shade of these Dolce Vita heels. They are higher than most of the other options I have shared so if you want a medium heel height, these are the ones to go with. The pointy toe is my preferred toe shape for heels and the slight ruching detail gives them a little something extra.
Neutral Kitten Heels
A pair of simple kitten heels in black, white or tan are always going to be a staple for my spring wardrobe. These particular sandals have a delicate strappy detail which makes them very easy to dress up or down.
Spring Shoe Edit
Even though I have a large collection of flats in my closet, I still need a chic lifestyle sneaker to wear for certain occasions. I love this style from Larroude and the color options are all so beautiful.
Every single neutral shade in one shoe!
So many pumps and heels are too heavy for spring/summer but this style is perfect. A great spring workwear shoe.
Jelly shoes are still trending so expect to see them everywhere this spring and summer. These don’t look too much like jelly sandals because the straps are clear (which I LOVE) and the wedge base is solid. A great easy to throw on shoe that can easily be dressed up or down.
The woven material on these mules is absolutely stunning. I love a comfy flat mule as an alternative to ballet flats. The pointy toe elevates this so much making it work appropriate for certain settings.
Thong heeled sandals are incredibly popular though this pair looks timeless rather than trendy. The combination of materials in neutral shades makes this a great vacation shoe option.
If you are into the jelly trend, this bright coral pair looks so fun. They are currently on their way to me right now!
This gorgeous soft green metallic will add the perfect pop of spring color to any outfit.
Wedge platforms with a flowy midi dress is so quintessential spring/summer, amiright? Just add a huge straw tote and big sunglasses and I immediately want to go have a picnic in the park.
