Flower sandals are one of those shoe styles that immediately grounds you in a season. Beyond just a regular open-toe shoe, there’s something special about the flower sandals that add a particular type of drama to any outfit, from great denim and a white tee to a spring wedding-guest dress.
As much of the country is starting to enjoy warmer, sunnier days, and we’re maybe starting to think about summer vacations and much-needed weekends away, there’s no better time to amp up your spring and summer footwear with a pair (or two) of flower sandals that evoke the whimsy of the season (and Carrie Bradshaw’s signature Sex and the City style.)
After a handful of seasons years dominated by simple, somewhat austere quiet luxury and “stealth wealth,” the tide is shifting toward a more maximal, colorful, and simply more joyful way of dressing. We’ve seen this play out with accessories like kitschy bag charms dangling from the straps of everything from oversized totes to retro baguette styles, more-is-more maximalist jewelry, and a hyper-focus on wearing color. Basically, we’re wearing whatever we want (and, some might say, dressing in a way that really only makes sense in our own heads) and there’s never been a better time to have fun with fashion.

To style this OTT shoe, the most straightforward way would be to let them take the lead. Pair your flower sandals with a simple summer dress and let your feet do the talking. But there’s a way to make them work in the city, too. Take a page out of the Scandi-girls’ playbook and wear your floral sandals with minimal culottes and a button-down or a midi dress layered under an oversized blazer.
Whether you prefer low kitten heels, comfy flats, or sky-high stilettos, there’s a floral style to suit every taste. Ready to dip your toes in 2025’s prettiest shoe trend? Shop our flower sandals picks below.
