The seven shoes you want the most this summer

The combination of shoes and summer can sometimes be a tricky thing. Because are slippers now allowed or not if you're not at the beach and is that oldschool walking sandal really super cool or just a flop? And boots in winter or also in combination with a flowy dress? From sneakers to wedge espadrilles and everything in between: these are the seven shoes you want to celebrate summer with the most.
