The £17 Next 'barely there' sandals that goes with everything in my wardrobe, plus 10 others for summer

The everyday sandal that take up zero room in packing.

By

With temperatures expected to reach 25 degrees next week, we’re covering all this year’s warm-weather trends now. From Boden’s first drop of swimwear to the top boho-inspired dresses, now’s the time to see what’s new in footwear.

The new style I'm obsessed with is the "barely there" style. Minimal straps, see through shades or skin coloured leather – their simplicity exudes sophistication. Such an illusion it gives, that people may need to double take to check to make sure you are not barefoot! Due to their paired back design, it’s not wonder why they have already become top of my shoe rotation this sunny season. I have yet not discovered an outfit that they don’t work with.

From linen trousers and waistcoats to the office to a summery shirt and skorts combo. These shoes hit the mark every time.

Another great feature of these sandals are there compact ease to pack. Simply slot between your clothes for your summer holiday – they take up no room at all but mean you can take another shoe option to your trip away. Hello beach to bar or the oh-so-chic dressed-up dinners.

As the temperature continues to rise (fingers crossed), these are the carefully selected ‘barely there’ sandals to buy now for all your summer outfit this year - and you can be sure our chosen styles will never date.

Woven designs or gold shades help aid in a bolder summer statement and, when designed with minimalist leather features, they are the ultimate versatile sandal everything from white linen dresses to striped trousers and oversized shirts.

Here’s our pick of the best ‘barely there’ sandals to buy now and wear summer upon summer upon summer…
