Is your shoe rotation feeling a little stale after a long winter? Because, same.
Today, the high temperature where I live hit the 60s, which may or may not be a sign that winter is finally over. But either way, I’m ready to retire the snow boots and step into something new. Why not go ahead and treat yourself to a pair of new shoes as a reward for surviving the cold months, am I right?
This season, we’re loving five shoes trends because they each feel fresh, wearable, and ready to elevate any outfit. From square-toe Mary Janes to playful slingback pumps, there’s something here for every mood and occasion—and yes, it might just inspire a little springtime shoe shopping.
Square-Toe Mary Janes
Mary Janes aren’t just for school or the office! The classic silhouette is getting a fresh upgrade, and it’s all the rage this spring. The square toe and modern detailing give these timeless shoes a chic edge that’s perfect for workdays, weekend outings, and everything in between.
LifeStride Beloved Mary Jane Flat ($59.99)`
The LifeStride Beloved Mary Jane Flat is basically the Mary Jane we’ve been waiting for. The squared-off toe gives it a fresh, contemporary look, while the classic strap keeps that timeless style we all know and love. And with its cushioned footbed, it’s the perfect mix of polished and practical for spring.
Sneakerinas
Ever since Bella Hadid debuted them on the street, sneakerinas have taken off as the ultimate comfy-yet-chic shoe. Part ballet flat, part sneaker, you can wear them while running errands, during weekend outings, or just for adding a pop of personality to your everyday look.
PUMA Speedcat Ballet Sneaker ($80 – $90)
PUMA is one of the brands leading the sneakerina trend, and this pair is a standout. (Just peep that next-level PUMA detailing!) The elastic bridge straps and streamlined profile bring the sporty vibe, while the graceful, ballet-inspired silhouette keeps it true to its namesake. What’s not to love?
Mesh Flats
I’m obsessed with mesh flats, which are a fun twist on the classic ballet flat you probably remember from high school. Light, breezy, and just a little see-through, they’re the kind of shoe you’ll want to wear on warmer days.
MIA Limited Edition Kerra Rhinestone Stud Ballet Flat ($69)
With its playful crystal studs, this mesh ballet flat packs a bunch of spring trends into one shoe. The airy mesh keeps it breathable, the studs add a pop of sparkle, and the classic Mary Jane strap ties it all together.
Slingback Pumps
I’ve loved slingback pumps forever (did they ever really go out of style?), and I’m thrilled to see even more of them this spring. From kitten heels to two-tone styles, they effortlessly blend ’90s nostalgia with a fresh, modern vibe.
Sam Edelman Bianka Slingback Pump ($76.50)
These Sam Edelman Bianka Slingback Pumps are a little vampy, a little classy—but all kinds of chic. The pointed toe and adjustable slingback strap give it sleek, minimalist vibes, but best of all is the bold leopard print. This is a statement shoe you’ll want to wear everywhere this spring.
Low Top Sneakers
I’ve always preferred low tops over high tops, which is great news news now that low tops are trending right along with minimalist flats, sneakerinas, and slingbacks. These cool sneakers are slim, lightweight, and look just as good with denim as they do with breezy spring dresses.
Call It Spring by Aldo Maevyn Sneaker ($59.99)
The Maevyn Sneaker totally taps into that cool, retro-slim sneaker vibe that’s everywhere right now. The breathable mesh keeps you cool (even on hot spring days) and the cushioned footbed means you can wear them all day long. Pro tip: pair them with a flirty spring dress for an instant It Girl look!
If you’re updating your spring wardrobe, start from the ground up. These trends make getting dressed feel fun again.
