Get ready, because as the weather warms up and more and more of the population comes out of hibernation/quarantine, we’re going to start seeing a slew of new fashion trends in the wild. Whether it be brightly colored bags, cottagecore (it’s a real thing), mom jeans and more, there is no shortage of newness happening within the industry right now. Shoes are no different, and it started with what we saw back on the spring 2021 runways, but now that these items have begun to hit stores we’ve got a better look at the must-have trends that will be adorning every fashionista’s feet from now until fall.

A lot of great summer shoe options here that anyone can wear tonight to celebrate the guilty verdict in the trial of Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd.
I love the Bottega’s! The price is crazy, but they are so edgy and look comfortable.
Can’t go wrong with Dr. Martens
