Before you say anything, hear us out. Platforms definitely classify as high heels but they honestly don’t hurt your feet like stilettos do. For days when your #ootd needs some oomph, we suggest upping it with a pair of chic platform sandals. Because the platform is so high on the shoe, the heel height doesn’t make your foot arch as dramatically, which makes regular heels super uncomfortable. Platforms are a fab way to get some height (if you’re on the shorter side) but they also add major edge to any ensemble.
Keep reading for 7 ways to wear platform sandals this summer!
Dark Florals
Florals are definitely big for spring (groundbreaking, we know) but if you’re not into overly feminine florals, give these dark romantic florals a try like Sarah did. A chunky platform sandal adds to the mystery of this look without giving it too much of a tough or edgy vibe!
Pink Lady
Shake up your spring wardrobe like Shelley here and rock a pair of architectural platforms with a pretty pink jumpsuit. The ruffle details keep the look so fresh and fun while the platforms and black wicker bag keep the look from being too fancy and stiff.
Pastel Princess
Wearing too many pastels can easily get overwhelming but add a pair of jeans into the mix and it keep the outfit from being too over-the-top. Irene is slaying in those chunky yet feminine platforms, too. Even though the heel is wicked high, the platform makes the shoes wearable and so chic!
Bright Babe
Want to stand out from the crowd? Take a note from this style star and dare to be bold in bright hues. From that bright orange mane to those wicked yellow peep-toe platform boots, we are living. Taking the lewk an extra step further is that flowy ruffle skirt that blows oh so beautifully in the wind!
Punk Vibes
Edge it up like Gilda with a black-hued ensemble paired with chunky flatform sandals. Flatforms still give you that desired height but are easier on your toes so they’re super comfortable to walk around in all day. Gilda’s giving us total ’90s vibes in this lewk and we’re here for it!
White Hot Summer
Change up your summer white dress and opt for a long sleeved version like Fernanda did. Want to go the extra mile? Complete the lewk with platform sandals and socks, too. Even though this outfit seems so pure, the lingerie-style of this dress give it a mysterious punk vibes.
Caftan Realness
Summer means it’s caftan season for us here at #TeamE7, but how does one dress it up for, like, going out? Take a note from Ada and swap your slides for platforms and you’re good to go!
