Bright, full of life and lots of character—this spring’s shoe trends are just as vibrant as the season itself, and we couldn’t be more excited. From printed sandals to embellished mules, scroll through these picks that are sure to put a little spring in your step.

Here are 7 shoes you need this season…

1. Mana Heel — Nine West, $135

This flirty black and white stiletto by Nine West is a great pick for all your spring garden parties. Put on a flowing pastel coloured skirt and silk camisole, or light denim jeans and a button-down shirt for a perfect, and easy look under the sun.

2. Pryllan Mule — Aldo, $80

Put comfort first with these super trendy mules by Aldo. We can’t get enough of the flowery pattern, and the jewelled buckle adds just the right amount of glam. Whether you’re heading for an evening out, or just strolling around the city, these slip-ons are sure to become a regular favourite.

3. Mid-heel Slingbacks — Zara, $45.90

If you love keeping it simple in the warmer weather, these extra-bright heels by Zara are just the splash of colour you need in your wardrobe. The fresh coral shade is a fabulous match with off-white cotton and super light denim.

4. Netty Block Heel Mule Sandals — Topshop, $89.49

Chunky mule sandals continue to be among the biggest styles this season. Don’t let this hot-hued mustard pair intimidate you because they will go with just about anything from jeans to knee length skirts to rompers—you name it.

5. Lamp Sandals — Steve Madden, $70

These open-toe sandals are practical, versatile and ultra feminine. We love the minimalist look and—of course—the rose gold colour is always a lovely shade for warmer days.

6. Castañer Phoebe Espadrille — Club Monaco, $129

Kick back, relax and show some leg with these wrap-around espadrilles from Club Monaco. The cotton material will keep things comfortable, and we love the fun detailing on the front.

7. ‘Soncino’ Ankle Strap Sandal — Nordstrom, $134.70

From a day in the sun to a night out and about, these sophisticated blue sandals by J. Reneé will have your feet feeling and looking happy. The thicker criss-cross strap adds some extra support, which is always key if you’re spending a lot of time outside.
