Colours of flip flops

From sparkly to natural, from wooden to gold, there’s a massive range of coloured flip flops available to suit any sensibility. Changing the colour of your shoes changes your look dramatically, so if you’re looking to add some life to your wardrobe, or trying to de-dazzle your dresses so as not to attract quite so much attention, here’s a run-down of the different colours of flip flops on offer.

Silver and Gold

The ultimate in glitzy glam, adding silver or gold flip flops to a simple black dress provides the perfect finishing touch. Sometimes, picking the right shoes can be tough. High heels can make you feel overdressed, not to mention the aching feet the next morning.

Gold or silver flip flops make the perfect addition to your outfit, meaning you feel sexy, special and dressed for the occasion.

Natural wood

From Birkenstocks to cushioned toes, natural flip flops in wood or cork provide not only comfort, but style too. Equally at home on the beach or out for the evening they are fantastic for helping to carry off a casual and laissez faire look. Mix them with absolutely anything from a denim skirt to a pair of Capri pants and a white shirt. They’ll keep you cool, comfy and looking bang on trend.

Corsage

Flip flops don’t always have to be simple, many come with elegant corsage patterns. Flowers and bows on your toes are sure to keep the compliments coming in, and there are really no rules about where you can wear them.  

Try teaming them with a summer vest top and a short fitted skirt for that girly summer look. Slip them on by the side of the pool to compliment your bikini, or dress them up and wear them to a party.

Muted colours

Pale reds, navy blue or dark brown, muted colours are definitely a must for those of you wanting to bare your feet this summer without the worry of making sure your feet match your outfit.

If you feel that your outfit is a little over the top you can tone it down with a pair of muted flip flops for the ultimate smart casual look that ensures you will be looking stylish and relaxed.
