When Flip-Flops Are Not an Option, Fashion Enthusiasts Opt for These Convenient Slip-On Sandals.

      At this moment, summer feels like it's in full swing. The temperatures are rising, and even thinking about adding anything more than a hair tie and sunglasses makes me feel overheated. During these times, I often turn to shoes to enhance my outfits without adding layers. When comfort is key due to the weather, I seek footwear that offers minimal fabric alongside maximum style, and this season, the low-heel mule has been my wardrobe's best ally. Their backless design and lightweight feel make them an ideal option for hot summer days. However, what I believe truly distinguishes them is their heel height. They are neither completely flat nor excessively high, finding that perfect balance between sophistication and practicality, making them great for those using public transport or simply racking up steps in the heat.

      From there, adapting the rest of your outfit is easy. The charm of this trending style lies in its ability to instantly elevate even the most casual looks. Take influencer Liv Madeline, for instance, whose choice of low-heel mules added a touch of elegance that a flat style wouldn’t achieve while maintaining the relaxed vibe of her baggy jeans and oversized shirt. Similarly, Débora Rosa dressed up a boxy tee and knee-length shorts with this style, bringing a refreshed, polished twist to an otherwise easy-going outfit.

      Offering serious competition to the strappy sandals that typically fill my summer collection, low-heel mules are making a compelling argument for the top of my list. Continue scrolling to discover the pairs that have caught my eye this season.
