So here goes the Ten footwear styles : 1. The Flat Sandal : Probably known more common as the thong flats/slippers.  Perfect for summer to wear with ankle jeans, a skirt or a dress.

Espadrilles Another shoe that is fun for summer, adds height without the wobble and is capable of being paired with capris, shorts or a dress is the espadrille.  Flat espadrilles are also an option for summer casual chic attire.   TOMS are the best example for one! 3.   Ballet flats or loafers/slippers Tired of running around in your heels but you don't want to compromise on style?
