1. The Flip-Flop
First of all, whether you love or hate them, it is almost impossible to avoid wearing flip-flops. Sometimes practicality rules over style – although we would all like to live in a world where we look well put together every hour of the day, for most it is not a realistic or reasonable expectation.

Tips:
- Keep your choice minimal.
- Go with a navy or black – something that can be thrown on without much thought.
- Stick with rubber, as they are easy to clean, extremely flexible and easily affordable. As long as you use them at the appropriate times, there is nothing wrong with owning a pair – don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
2. Leather Sandals
Investing in a pair of good quality leather sandals is also a good option. The summer is all about spontaneity and a casual day spent lounging in the garden can quickly turn into a smart-casual barbeque at a friends house.

Tips:
- They should be used in the evening when dining or even visiting a bar, so wear with a pair of smart chinos and a loose fit shirt to look the part but also retain comfort when the heat is intense.
3. Espadrilles
The third style of shoe is very often over-looked by most – the espadrille. They can look slick whether worn with shorts or trousers and, contrary to popular opinion, can be dressed up or down to suit.

Tips:
- In most instances, the espadrille is a slip on shoe constructed of a flat rope sole and a basic canvas top.
- Words of warning: if they are being worn heavily, do not expect them to last a long time.
