Every woman loves a good pair of boots, but there comes a time when your feet need to enjoy some freedom with a good pair of slippers on a hot summer’s day. Whether you're enjoying an afternoon at home, heading to the beach or planning a casual get-together with your friends in the garden, summer slippers are the perfect choice. But with so many styles and colours, how do you know which ones are perfect for you? Everything you need to know is in this ultimate guide!
MATERIAL
Choosing the correct material is essential to keep your feet happy and stylish all summer long. Ideally, you would like to choose something comfortable and breathable that will keep your feet sweat-free. Some materials are also machine washable, which is ideal for busy moms who don't know which way the next spillage is coming from!
Cotton - slippers made with cotton or cotton-mix will keep your feet cool on a hot day.
Acrylic – it is a pleasant-to-touch material that is lightweight and very durable. Perfect for a busy mom when every day brings a new challenge – you want something reliable.
Wool – similar to clothing made from wool, it keeps you cool when it's hot and keeps you warmer when it's cold. This is a highly breathable material that is excellent for temperature regulation and keeping your feet healthy. Ideal for sensitive skin, an odour-resistant and eco-friendly option.
Suede or leather – a more durable option for summer footwear that also gives an elegant look.

STYLE
While slippers have less material than boots, it does not mean they have any less style! Here are some of the most popular styles of slippers that every woman should consider adding to their shoe closet.
Flip-flops – who does not love a good pair of flip-flops?! They are lightweight, versatile and come in as many colours as there are vacation destinations.
Espadrilles – it is a timeless piece that every woman should have. They are often made from light, breathable fabric and style well with countless outfits. Whether you’re planning a back garden party or running to the shop for the last-minute supplies and still need to look stylish in case you run into someone, this is the perfect choice.
Mules – who said mules are out of style?! It is a perfect mix of elegance and comfort and should definitely be on your next shopping list.
Sandals – a simple pair of sandals has the power to elevate your look to the next level. Choose neutral colours so they can be paired well with jeans as well as a sunflower dress.
Sporty slip-ons – an active lifestyle does not mean having to sacrifice fashion. Sporty slip-ons have the right cushioning and support, so your feet feel comfortable on long days running errands, while the colourful straps are there to match your favourite handbag.
VERSATILITY
If you don’t want to have multiple pairs of each style available, choose slippers that are as good indoors as they are outdoors. When choosing a pair, imagine which outfits they would look good with. Is there a dominant colour in your summer wardrobe? Match that colour with your new slip-ons. Consider choosing a classic design that will look good with a pair of shorts as well as a long beach dress.
GOOD FIT
A good fit is extremely important for summer wear. In hot weather, your feet tend to swell, and improperly fitting slippers can result in new blisters and discomfort. Make sure your toes have enough room to move freely, as well as that your heel doesn't slip out when you walk. Some brands offer built-in arch support or removable insoles to suit everyone's needs. When selecting slippers, comfort should always be your top priority. If you spend a lot of time on your feet, consider cushioned insoles, memory foam, and soft lining.
