A few of my most worn neutral summer shoes I have had for several years and still reach for all the time! None of these required any breaking in for me and were comfortable out of the box • Sam Edelman Loafers 5.5. Great work / weekend / travel shoe. Cedarwood is more cooler toned taupe and the French Sand is more beige • Flat slide sandals, size 5 in Almond. A major benefit of the patent leather is that I have worn them many times in light water situation, such as poolside, waterparks with the kids and they have held up perfectly fine • Schutz clear pvc block heel slide sandals 5.5. These continue to be a go to for me since the clear strap aspect is elongating and flattering. • Sam Edelman Low block heel slides sandals, size 5. Mine are an older color, but they are available in several other neutrals this year. petite friendly summer shoes @nordstrom NordstromPartner LTKStyleTip LTKTravel LTKShoeCrush
