I like to think of myself as a shopper because I spend my days organizing fashion roundups and hunting for the best of the best products. So my friends and family often come to me when they have shopping questions because they know I’ll have a handful of recommendations instantly. Recently someone asked me what would be the best work shoes for the summer? For a second I stopped and thought it was actually a tough question. You’ll want something light, airy, comfortable, functional, and also stylish enough to mix and match with everything else in your wardrobe. So, I went on a mission to find out which pairs ticked all of these boxes.

I turned to all of my favorite retailers and made a list of my favorite finds for hot days, long commutes and beyond. From cozy flats to classic pumps, you’ll no doubt fall in love with at least one (or five!) Pairs to come. Best of all, they’re all so versatile you can wear them even after leaving the office. Keep scrolling to shop and find the ones you’re going to be wearing all season.
