Christmas is the season of giving…so we think it’s a perfect time for us mums to gift ourselves a pair (or two) of some gorgeous Summer shoes.

But there’s no need to break the budget over footwear. We’ve asked the shoe experts at Styletread to put together a list of the best fashionable, yet comfortable summery shoes that are all affordably priced, well below $99. We reckon you’ll love these as much as we do.

Check out the list below of these fabulous yet functional summer sandals – your feet are going to thank you.

1) Leeds Natural Leopard by Blowfish

We adore these punchy platforms designed by Blowfish. They are crafted using vegan leather and microsuede and feature wide adjustable straps for support. The flatform soles with cushioned footbeds are walkable while giving the WOW factor. These sandals are perfect for warm weekends spent brunching. These stunners are also available in black and scotch colours and are priced at $79.95.

2) Somerset Slide Rose Smooth by Walnut

These sandals are the perfect flirty feminine choice for summer. How adorable is that oversized bow? The textile straps are so soft and the footbed, lined with suede, is moulded for extra comfort. The rubber outsole is cleated to provide traction. These sandals look fabulous with warm weather staples, like shorts and cotton tees. They also are available in a number of different colours, including navy, black, blue and pink. You can pick up a pair of these for only $79.95.

3) Adilette Aqua W Pink-White by Adidas

Forget cheap thongs, these iconic Adidas’ ADILETTE slides are stylish and casual all at once … and you’re guaranteed not to have one of those miserable thong blow-outs. Highly desirable, these sandals have been designed with comfort in mind, with moulded contour footbeds and wide bandage straps detailed with the sportswear brand’s instantly recognisable tri-stripe design. This classic design was first launched in 1972 and it is still a best-seller sandal. Grab a pair in pink, black or blue for only $30.

4) Yazmine White Leather by Beltrami

These are at the top end of our price range, but these strappy sandals are so stunning, that they are worth the extra investment. Expertly crafted in Spain using premium leather, YAZMINE by Beltrami boasts a flattering strappy silhouette with adjustable slingbacks for a secure fit. The shoe also has moulded footbeds for maximum comfort. These shoes are our pick for versatility – they’re perfect for everyday use, as well as more dressier occasions. The shoes are also available in navy, brown, black and red and are priced at $99.95.

5) Marcela Khaki Elastic by I Love Billy

These strappy summer sandals simply scream style. Designed by I Love Billy, this Marcela slide has a lightweight, flexible midsole with three elastic arch bands. This is a simple shoe that goes with just about anything – it really is the perfect summer shoe. These slip-ons are also available in black and leopard print and you can grab yourself a pair for only $59.95.

6) Brie-Lo’profile Black by Skechers

We are besotted with these casual, yet super-stylish BRIE LO’PROFILE sandal by Skechers. They feature an elasticated panel with a soft microsuede upper. The cork-textured midsole rests on a luxe foam footbed for the ultimate in comfort. They are also available in a Taupe colour and are priced at $89.95.
