The Simple Dress Style Fashion People Wear With Sandals
Easy ensembles ahead.


Okay, I'm speaking the obvious here, but sandals are undoubtedly one of the key staples to a well-balanced summer wardrobe. The beauty of that ideal silhouette (particularly a flat style) is that they can be worn with different outfits. One piece it seems every fashion person I follow on Instagram is wearing with flip-flops, strappy sandals, slides, and fisherman silhouettes is a flowy black maxi or midi dress.
This simple style with a throw-on-and-go nature is effortless and always chic. I love how you can toss on the black dress that works best for you, slip into a pair of sandals, and you're ready to go with a fashion-forward look. Below you'll uncover how style setters wear flowy black dresses and sandals. If you want to add items to your closet, there are also inspired shopping picks.
A dress with puff sleeves or an off-the-shoulder silhouette is absolutely gorgeous with any sandal style.
A tank dress with white sandals is fresh and elegant.
I'm so into this easy black dress with contrasting sandals.
Consider a dress with buttons or a collar for something polished with your favorite sandals.
This maxi style is fashion-forward and so effortless. The flip-flops add a cool spin to the look.
