Our summer capsule wardrobes are pared down and mostly minimal, but when it comes to footwear, options are always good. Consider a chic flat mule or a pair of espadrilles as an alternative to your summer sandal, especially for the days when your pedi might need a touch up!

Our favorite editors, stylists, and street style influencers show us how to style these summer footwear alternatives. Take a peek and then keep scrolling for our edit of mules, espadrilles, and flats that will pair perfectly with your favorite worn in denim and summer linens.
