My Favorite Shoes I Plan on Wearing All Summer

Sandals

My Favorite Shoes for Summer, Sandals for Women over 50
Talbots Cork Sandals

Cork is one of my favorite materials for warm weather because it’s breathable, neutral, and has a beachy vibe that works with everything. These sandals have a tiny bit of height, and a heel and arch padding for extra comfort. Plus, they’re cute enough for shorts, dresses, or jeans.

MY FAVORITE SANDALS FOR SUMMER
IN MOTION SEAMLESS TEE (Large) | ENDLESS HIGH RISE PANT (Size 6) | NAOT Sandals with Cork Footbed and Arch Support (Size Up)

I LOVE wearing my NAOT Sandals, especially on days when I’ll be on my feet a lot. I did size up in these, and they are so comfortable. I also really like their  Victoria Slide Sandal. They were comfortable right away, and I didn’t need any time to “break them in.”

These cute slide sandals have been my “grab and go” shoes so far! The footbed is soft and supportive, and the slide style means no fussing with buckles or straps. The raffia adds just the right amount of texture, and they’re super affordable!

My favorite flip flops for summer for women over 50
Ornament Thong Sandals (TTS)

These flip-flop sandals are comfy, eye-catching, and they look expensive! I love the bold buckle because it adds a little flair to any outfit. My original pair was from Walmart. I was so sad to see they sold out, so imagine my surprise (and excitement!) when I saw this identical pair on Amazon!

Comfortable Supportive Sandals Flip Flops for Women Over 50
Vionic Shine Flip Flop (TTS)

These Vionic Shine Flip Flops are not only cute, but they’re super comfortable. And let’s be real: when you’re sightseeing or chasing grandkids, comfort is a must. Vionic is a great brand to shop for us women over 50. Their shoes have great support, are stylish, and feel super cushy. Plus, this pair is sparkly to boot!

I’ve had Birkenstocks in rotation for years, and this pair with subtle rivet detailing adds just a little something special. They’re easy to slide on and off, offer great arch support, and honestly, they mold to your feet in the best way over time.

Flats and Loafers

Quince Italian Leather Soft Loafer (TTS)

A neutral loafer is a must-have for any wardrobe, and these beige Italian Leather Loafers are both classic and comfortable. They’ve been one of my FAVORITE shoes to wear this year! The leather is SO soft, and they’re easy to wear all day.

You can never go wrong with a timeless leather ballet flat. Think soft, buttery leather in neutral shades like beige, blush, or camel. These are perfect for work, casual outfits, or even travel days when you need a comfortable yet polished shoe.

Preppy Classic Timeless Shoes for Women Over 50 for Summer, Best Boat Shoes
 Sperry Slim Boat Shoe

You gurls, these Sperry Slim Boat Shoes are such a great neutral option for summer! The light color goes with just about everything, and the slim profile gives them a more feminine look than your typical boat shoe. They’re lightweight and comfy, which makes them perfect for pairing with white jeans or linen pants. I also love them with shorts or even a cute preppy dress, so easy to slip on and go!

Sneakers

The Keds Champion sneaker hits that perfect balance between casual and pulled together. They’re the kind of shoe you can slip on with shorts or a sundress, and they just work, no fuss, no second-guessing. And the best part? They won’t break the bank. It’s nice to find a pair of sneakers that look cute, feel good, and don’t cost a fortune!

Sometimes, the simplest things are the best. The Keds Champion is a classic, no-frills sneaker that’s been around for over 100 years. That tells you something right there. It’s not trendy or flashy, but it works, and it works for just about everyone.

Wedges

Two Wedge Strap Sandals, Affordable Summer Shoes
The Drop Women’s Sophia Two Strap Wedge Sandals

These clear strap wedge heel sandals are both trendy and practical. The wedge heel gives you a little height without sacrificing comfort, and the clear straps make your legs look a mile long. I’ve worn these for years, and they are still my go-to shoes in the spring and summer.

My Favorite Wedges, Great Summer Shoes for Women over 50
 Clarks Leather Wedges

These Clarks Leather Wedges give you that little boost of height we all love, but without sacrificing comfort, hallelujah! The soft leather straps feel great on your feet, and the cushioned footbed means you can wear them all day without needing a backup pair. The wedge heel is just high enough to flatter your legs but still super easy to walk in. I love how they go with everything from sundresses to cropped jeans and even wide-leg linen pants. If you need a versatile summer shoe that looks good and feels good, these are it!
