It's the summer of the flip-flop.
We know flip-flops have long been a summer staple, but this year, flip-flops have become a trend worth investing in.
Beyond the beach, a flip-flop is fit for day and night, when the occasion calls for a chic, understated look that feels both fashion-forward and comfortable.
To elevate an ensemble, a thong sandal with a kitten or wedge heel quite literally adds a bit of height while maximizing on the effortlessness of the shoe. Because thong sandals are often void of an ankle strap, they help to elongate the leg when paired with dresses, skirts, shorts or capris.
We're rounding up some of the chicest flip-flops and thong sandals for women from brands like Quince, H&M, and Jeffrey Campbell, starting at less than $25. Our picks include leather options like Quince's simple Italian Leather Flip Flop, as well as jelly flip-flops in playful colors.
Plus, we've included some splurgeworthy, embellished options from Reformation, Dolce Vita, and beyond, for those open to the investment; though trending, they will always be a classic summer shoe.
