These ultra cushiony sandals come in just about every color, you'll want one of each, fr!

Don't sleep on Crocs! Really!
Rave Review: First, I want to say I LOVE this style! Very comfy, love the extra thick height—which are very easy and sturdy for me to walk in—and they look really cute on! I have a pinched nerve and have toe numbness in one foot, and I've had less numbness while wearing these vs sneakers. Living in Florida, I NEED these, because I find myself caught in flooded parking lots frequently during afternoon storms. I can trudge through any puddle and know these will be dry quickly, and still look great! And I love my little Butterfly Jibbitz too! I'd love to get the lilac color!
This strappy sandal is minimal, yet bold with its two-tone color blocking.
Fisherman sandals are so in—you'll want to get your hands on a pair in this pretty blue hue.

You can't go wrong with a hot pink flip flop.
These sleek slides will mold to your feet, making them so beyond cozy.
Rave Review: "Super comfy. If you have wide feet, this fits perfectly. Soft sole and the strap is padded to avoid blisters. Very satisfied with this purchase! I can actually take walks in these. Also, dressy enough for a casual night out.
These chic, strappy flats are definitely work approved.
These hot pink sandals are giving Barbiecore in the best way possible.
These minimalistic slides are so versatile, you'll be able to dress them up or down.
Classic flip flop, but make it fun by going for a lime green.
