In my seemingly never-ending quest for the perfect summer sandals, I have managed to uncover a gem (ha!) in these Diego Dolcini Swarovski crystal flats. They're sparkly without being at all garish, and with my Ibiza holiday looming, they're the perfect sandals for teaming with a pretty maxi dress and soaking up the sunset at Cafe Del Mar.
With a leather upper and an ankle strap with side buckle, they are not only pretty but practical too. If you're as much of a fan as me, you'll be pleased to know they have 50% off right now and are down to £304 at Farfetch.

If you're looking for glamour, they don't get more glamorous than these Giuseppe Zanotti heels with chain fringing dangling alluringly from the ankle strap. They will definitely inject a bit of 20s flapper style to your evening attire - simply pair with a LBD for the best possible result!
Giuseppe Zanotti churn out some of my very favourite shoe designs, and with simple yet effective ones like this being presented to us, this only serves to remind me why I love them so much. They are $799 from Zappos Couture.

Please don't tell me you've still got your poor feet caged up in your winter boots or autumn's now-very-scraggly ballet flats. C'mon guys, they deserve better! They deserve something along the lines of these cute polka dot and heart print Manhattan sandals by Sugar, which are too adorable for words and will also allow your feet to experience the sunshine and air they've been missing for way too long. Give your toes a slick of bright pink or coral varnish and they won't know what's hit them.
The sandals are on sale now for just £15 from Office. Most sizes were left last we checked, so be quick!

I'm not sure if I took a second look at these cut-out wedge boots by All Black because I thought they actually looked good or because they're by a brand that has the same name as my favourite sports team (check them out girls!) Either way, they got me to look twice and once I looked closer, I could definitely see their merits.
They're chic and trendy without being too over-the-top, which is a nice change really, considering we're seeing a lot of OTT statement shoes at the moment. You'll be able to wear them pretty much throughout the year - the cutouts will allow your feet to breathe in summer; just add opaques in winter and you're away. They're £120 from Urban Outfitters.

When you're looking for a fresh and summery shoe but want an alternative to the trendy metallics and neons, the first place you should turn is to pastels. You only have to look at the refreshing prettiness of these lemon St Andrea T-bar heels to get why.
Perfect with dark denim jeans and a white shirt for a casual work look, they'll also look smart with your dressier numbers and sufficiently girly with your summer frocks. The Fashionistas range by Kurt Geiger is inspired by fashion capitals around the world, and these architectural beauties are the very essence of Milano. They're £200 from Liberty.

Jester hats, patterned wellies and pink stetsons were safe choices for attention-seeking festival wear but now there's something a little more girly that would make even Paris Hilton consider a trip to Worthy Farm.
High maintenance festival goers and those of you would actually describe yourselves as 'glampers' can now stand out from the crowd in style with a pair of Swarovski crystal personalised diamanté wellies. Wellie Art suggest putting your name, or marital status but there are so many better things you could write than 'Bride'. You could pick the name of your favourite band, make up a name for your gang of festival friends or add the name and year of the festival as a souvenir. If you're planning to really let your hair perhaps left and right will suffice!
