I am a huge fan of canvas shoes. I feel like they’re more breathable than a lot of other shoes, and when they get dirty, I can toss them in the wash. Not only that, but they come in such great colors and super fun patterns, that you can totally have fun with your shoes, and not worry about them.
One of the great things is that canvas shoes are so super cute for summer, but really transition well to fall, too. Here are a few of our favorites to help make that transition super smooth.
Flip flops…what’s there to say? They’re some of the most quintessential shoes for summer. They’re easy on, easy off, and perfect for running down to the beach or the pool. And much like Pringles, you can’t just have one. Nope, you need a whole lotta flip flops. But it’s okay, because they’re not usually too expensive.
We’ve gathered up 13 pairs of really fun flip flops that are perfect for summer. Most are under $25, with many being under $10. You can’t beat that, can ya?
Minions are everywhere. It seems that no matter your age, you’re enthralled by these hilarious little creatures from the Despicable Me movie series. Did you know that there’s a 3rd installment of Despicable Me coming out this summer? It’s true! These handpainted Minion shoes are here to help celebrate the movie’s release!
I can hear you now. “Haindpainted shoes?” you’re saying. TRUST ME – it’s not that difficult. If you’re not confident in your artistic skills, google a picture of Minions and use tracing paper. It’s seriously so easy to make these handpainted Minion shoes.
I am a huge fan of easy breezy fashion. We all want to look good, and not have to spend hours to get that way One of the secrets to lazy fashion is cute shoes. These womens espadrilles are going to make your spring and summer fashion so easy, it’ll look like you spent alll day putting your outfit together.
Espadrilles have been around for a while, but haven’t been super popular in years. They started to have a revival a couple years back, but they didn’t quite catch on. Never fear, though! Espadrilles are going to be back in a huge way, and you don’t want to get caught without a pair. The best part? Most of these are under $75, with many being less than that.
Everyone suffers from cold feet every now and again. I don’t mean the jitters or trying to back out of something. I mean actual cold feet! A pair of slippers is one of those things that just about everyone likes, and can really use. There’s so many great styles that there’s a pair of slippers for every price range, style, and aesthetic.
Personally, I’m partial to fun prints like Muk Luks, and the sheepskin lined slippers like Uggs. Others prefer the more traditional house shoe style of slippers or the fuzzy slippers that envelop your whole foot. Whatever the style is, you can’t go wrong.
If you live in a wet climate, you know that you basically have two options when it comes to footwear. Something cheap that doesn’t matter if they get ruined, or you have rain boots. And if you live somewhere it rains a lot, you generally have multiple pairs of rain boots.
Let’s face it – no one wants wet feet. It’s miserable, sets the day off wrong, and honestly, makes you cold. We’ve compiled 16 awesome pairs of rain boots that are all under $100. Many are around the $50 price point. And we’ve managed to hunt down some great designer brands like Michael Kors, Ralph Lauren, Ugg, Diane von Furstenberg, and more.

I love a wild and crazy shoe. I believe I’ve said this before, but it definitely holds true. We all know that accessories are a great way to express some personality. For some reason, though, people usually neglect their shoes as accessories. Why is that? Is it because they tend to be a bigger investment than a scarf? Or they get dirty quicker than an expensive bag? Whatever the reason, we need to re-evaluate this.
One of my favorite types of shoe is a patterned one, like polka dot or plaid shoes. I have a pair of plaid Keds that get heavy rotation during the summer. They’re great with denim or a skirt, and look really cute. These are a few of my favorite plaid shoes out there.
I am a huge fan of cowboy boots. I think that they’re all weather wear, and unlike other boot styles, there’s no need to put them up for summer. Denim cutoffs and cowboy boots are a quintessential summer look, after all.
That’s not the only way to wear cowboy boots though. Pair them with a dress or a skirt. Wear them with leggings. Wear them with distressed jeans in the summer. There’s almost no wrong way to wear cowboy boots.
Here are 11 Pairs of Cowboy Boots we think are worth trying.
Here in the Midwest, our weather is totally screwy. One day it’s in the 80’s, and two days later it’s snowing. What’s that about? Rather than having to keep changing back and forth from winter boots to spring boots, I’m busting out the ones that are great transition pieces.
That means the Uggs and Bearpaws are going back into the closet, and the shooties and booties are busting out. The good thing is that these are fabulous pieces that are on-trend, and transition well.
I am gonna just come right out and admit it. I’ve always worn combat boots. I got my first pair of Dr Martens in like 5th grade, and have been proudly wearing them ever since. Of course, when I was in 5th grade, grunge was in, and it was the 1990s.
Grunge is back, and so are so many of the great components. Like plaid, flannel, torn jeans, babydoll dresses, and my beloved combat boots. These combat boots are going to keep you right in style for the fall, and beyond.
