Tuesday Shoesday: Sky-High Platforms Are All the Rage for Summer

Summer is on the horizon, and like many of you, I’m hunting for a few pieces to spruce up the items already in my closet. When it comes to shoes, I admittedly own enough sneakers to wear a different pair every day of the month, and when I’m not in sneakers, I’m usually wearing my Bottega Veneta boots. Where I struggle in the summer is when I’m getting ready for a night out. The winter, I’ve got covered with a variety of heeled boots, but warmer weather continuously throws me for a loop. I have pretty bad feet and cannot wear a super high heel, a skinny heel, or a stiletto, and when I go out, I want to be comfortable enough to dance and not be in tears by the time I’m ready to go home. That’s where platforms come in. Chunky and trending, not everyone loves the platform sandal look, but I’m so happy they’ve come back in style because it’s a silhouette I can actually stand wearing!

It’s Tuesday Shoesday, so you know what that means; we’re bringing you some of the best platform sandals we could find. Platforms started resurfacing last spring, and they’ve steadily gained momentum. I’ve already indulged in this trend and ordered the Schutz denim sandals below, but I’m super into this trend, and I will definitely be ordering another pair. Below I’ve rounded up 12 of the best pairs at a variety of budgets to help you dabble in this trend too! Are you here for it, or are you passing on platforms?
