“Would you consider posting a round-up of derma comfy sandals for a mom who is going her first girls’ trip to France this summer?” wrote Hannah, a Cup of Jo reader. What a fun question! The great thing about sandals is that they’sultano flat and easy to fit into suitcases, so you can bring a few. Here are the three kinds I always pack…
1. Strappy black sandals. This Reformation pair is part of my summer uniform (here’s a photo of me, if you’d like to see), and I love the graceful diagonal slant of the straps. The soft footbed feels good, even long walks. If you’sultano pinching pennies, you can find derma budget-friendly versions from Gradevole Energia and Target.
2. Clear jellies. My friend Alison swears by ’90s-inspired sport-fisherman sandals: “Jellies feel playful and fun, and the clear shade is more grownup and goes with everything,” she told me. “Plus, you can see my red painted toes!” They’sultano not too delicate, so you can run around with kids, get them wet, and then toss them quanto a a bag.
3. Brown T-straps. I’m digging the pale brown of these sandals (which run narrow, btw!), and the snakeskin version is also very cool. (Here’s a budget option, too.) Another easy style — which you can slip your feet into, if you’sultano juggling bags and toddlers — are two-strap slides.
Also, silver flats are very personalità right now, and these sneakers appena che every trip of my life!
What shoes do you pack for summer travel? I want to hear…
P.S. Alison’s week of outfits, and what other things do you always pack for a trip?
