5 Neutral Sandals that Go with Everything!
Bright, colorful sandals give an outfit a fun, playful vibe, but neutral sandals are at the heart of the most chic summer wardrobes.
White, tan, brown, black, and other neutral colors are low-key, classy and versatile. You can wear them to offset a vibrant outfit or mix them tone-on-tone for an elegant monochromatic look.
Here are the 5 popular neutral sandal styles that look great, from casual shorts to jeans, breezy sundresses, and flowy jumpsuits.
1. Woven & Braided Sandals
Neutral sandals are anything but boring, especially when they have a lot of texture. This is why woven or braided sandals in raffia or leather are so popular in the summer.
I have four pairs I wear on repeat. The first are these low-heeled raffia slides with this chunky, modern buckle.
The next are these tropical flat raffia slides from Marc Fisher. They’re loaded with texture and have a slipper-like look and feel.
I also wear these Mena sandals a lot. They’re bone-colored, braided leather slides. They’re softer than white and look great with light-wash jeans and white jeans.
I wear the last pair a lot because they are so light and breezy. They’re great for around the pool or beach and slip easily into a beach tote without taking up a lot of room. These are the bestselling Raffia Flat H-sandals from the Drop.
2. Cork Sandals
Cork is another timeless neutral that works with all your summer outfits. The natural dark markings on the cork give this neutral tan color depth. Cork is also soft, flexible, and uneven to the touch, which creates texture and makes it interesting.
This is one of my favorite pairs of cork sandals from Amazon – The Drop. From the side, they look like they have a tall, thin heel, but from the back, you see the heel is wide and chunky, making these sandals very comfy and easy to walk in.
Gold and silver sandals are neutral
3. Metallic Sandals
Metallics gold, champagne, and silver sandals are glamorous and will instantly upscale any outfit. I mostly wear gold since it’s warm and works well with my blonde hair and light skin. One of my favorite pairs is my strappy gold gladiator sandals from Amazon.
However, silver is very trendy this year, so I also bought these silver mesh slides. They’re nice for the change, and I like how they give my outfits a modern, space-age look.
4. Animal Print Sandals
Do you know animal prints like leopard and snakeskin are considered neutral? That’s because they are printed in neutral colors like browns, beiges, tans, blacks, and whites.
The best way to wear animal-print sandals, like these snake-print slides, is with a solid-colored outfit. It’s tricky to combine them with another pattern without making your outfit look too loud and busy.
5. White Sandals
The most classic neutral sandal we all grew up with is the crisp, white summer sandal. These (similar) look fabulous with just about anything in summer.
They’ve been on the back burner of fashion for a few years, but lately, they have been trending big again. Off-white and bone are also popular.
I like wearing white sandals with white pants or a white dress, or you can wear them to accent a print top with touches of white.
